Six personnel of Delhi Police’s Bangladeshi Cell have been suspended following a midnight raid, which reportedly went out of control due to protests from residents, at Batla House in Jamia Nagar.

The members of Bangladeshi Cell had raided the area around 1.30 am on Thursday to nab illegal immigrants. Local police alleged that they were not informed about the operation.

Dressed in plain clothes, a team of eight personnel, including a woman officer, raided the houses of suspected illegal immigrants, police said.

“The team must have got some information and were checking if illegal immigrants live there. However, they should have informed the local police. Six of these cops were suspended,” said Ajay Chaudhary, Additional CP (Southeast).

A senior police officer said the team detained eight people, including women and children, from the area. “They were conducting a midnight raid in Batla House, which is such a sensitive area, and the local police were not taken into confidence. This is a violation of rules. Had they informed us through proper channels, we would have provided them full cooperation,” he said.

The officer said after the local police received a call regarding protest from residents, they went to the spot. He said more than 250 protesters had gathered by then. “The crowd was agitated and angry. So, I fired two rounds in the air to make the public quiet, and then removed the officers of the Bangladeshi Cell to safety,” he said.

Those detained were let off after they submitted their documents, including voter ID cards, to prove that they are Indians.

Sanjiv lives in Dakshinpuri and runs a dance school in Saket. He told the police that he had parked the motorcycle outside his dance school before leaving for Ludhiana. The unattended motorcycle was discovered near a DDA Park in Lado Sarai on Wednesday.

Meanwhile, the police's special cell is probing whether Hezbollah used local terror groups to carry out the attack. The possibility of Lashkar-e-Toiba (LeT) being tapped by the Hezbollah is being looked at, sources said.

Days after the arrest of RSS worker Kamal Chouhan in connection with the Samjhauta Express blast case, the home ministry on Thursday said "more arrests will be made leading to the solving" of a number of terror cases including Malegaon, Modassa and Ajmer Shariff blasts.

We are now on a slippery slope here. Lets see where it leads.

Prof attack: Key accused arrested
17/02/2012 15:45:04 PNS | Kochi

The NIA has nabbed Tamar Ashraf of Thodupuzha in Kerala’s Idukki district, a key accused in the case relating to the brutal attack on Prof TJ Joseph on July 4, 2010. Ashraf, who had arranged financial assistance for the professor’s assailants, was arrested on Thursday night from Muvattupuzha by the local police as per instructions from the NIA, which was probing the case.

Ashraf, who had been hiding abroad since the attack on the professor, was brought to Muvattupuzha with the help of the Interpol. The main charge against Ashraf, one of the conspirators of the attack, is that he had arranged the funds for the assailants. Six more key accused persons are yet to be arrested in the case.

Activists of Islamist outfit Popular Front of India and its political wing SDPI had cut off the right hand of Prof Joseph on the morning of July 4, 2010 when he was returning home from a local church in Muvattupuzha after attending the Sunday Mass. The Islamists had charged him with “blaspheming” Prophet Muhammad in a test paper he had prepared for the students.

The CIA is believed to have shared information with its Indian counterparts on the last week bomb attack in New Delhi on an Israeli diplomatic car, including on alleged Iranian links.

Informed sources claimed that the Indian intelligence agencies have confirmed and corroborated the intelligence information on the bombing shared by the CIA.

The sources expressed "surprise" that despite the alleged Iranian links, India has kept mum on it, which they claimed is mainly due to its diplomatic implications and its impact on India-Iran ties.

HYDERABAD: In an unusual move, the Wakf Board decided on February 18 to write to the government to hand over Ahmediya properties in their possession to the endowments department. This is the first time the board has decided to transfer the custody of places of worship to another government entity since its inception. The board also decided to take over the disputed mosque in Falaknuma from members of the Ahmediya community which it claims belongs to the board.

Eight Ahmediya mosques with the board will be given to the endowments department. Chairman of Wakf Board Syed Ghulam Afzal Biyabani said, "We have unanimously decided to give possession of three mosques in Hyderabad, three mosques in Mahboobnagar and two in Khammam to the endowments department. Also, we intend to take possession of the masjid and graveyard near the Falaknuma railway station currently with the Ahmediyas through legal course."
......

Sources from the Wakf Board say that the spirit of the decision comes from the fact that the Ahmediyas do not follow the Quran and are not permitted in Saudi Arabia to perform Hajj. Therefore, the decision to transfer properties to the endowments department was made.

And despite repeated warnings from the cabin crew, they managed to get out of the aircraft. However, they were stopped at the ladder point by the airport security personnel and were forcibly taken into the aircraft following negotiations with the airline authorities.

Five men arrested last week in Patiala on charges of planning a dacoity have confessed to carrying out at least four bombings targeted at Muslims in Haryana in 2009 and 2010, police in Haryana and Punjab said today.

The men allegedly belong to a Hindu extremist group called Azad Sangathan, headed by a Jind resident called Azad, also known as Sagar and Kala. Azad was arrested along with his comrades Praveen Sharma, Ram Niwas, Gurnam Singh and Rakesh Kumar at Shambhu barrier in Patiala. All are in Haryana Police custody.

“They have told interrogators that they wanted to spread terror among Muslims and chose Muslim targets for their attacks,” Inspector Rohtash Singh, station house officer of Jind city police station, who is investigating the attacks, said. “They chose a madrasa and a meat factory in Jind district, and a mosque in Mehlab village of Mewat district. They wanted to target Muslim buildings.”

Jind superintendent of police Ashok Kumar said, “So far they have confessed to carrying out blasts at four places. It is a sensitive matter. We are not in a position to divulge many details.”

The Jind-Mewat area was rocked by a series of apparently unexplained blasts in 2009-10. Apart from a madrasa and meat factory, bombs went off in Nuh in Mewat and Safidon in Jind. All were low intensity explosions in which no one was killed, police said. Haryana Police have been treating the madrasa blast, which took place in October 2009, as triggered by a leaking septic tank.
