Hand chopping: Kochi NIA court frames charges
Two years after the incident the NIA is proceeding with the case against the religious terrorists who chopped off the hand of a college teacher for blashphemy.

So far NIA has taken up many cases, and in one case have moved a bit ahead by framing the case and putting up to the court. For a specialised agency only dealing with such cases I feel things are going really slow.

Buoyed by Karnataka election results, a minister of Khangrass has this to say in Rajya Sabha.

'SIMI, right-wing groups running terror camps in India'

Banned terror outfit Student Islamic Movement of India (SIMI) and other right-wing majoritarian groups are organising training camps for budding terrorists on Indian soil, the Parliament was informed on Wednesday. Minister of State for Home Affairs RPN Singh on Wednesday told Rajya Sabha that investigation conducted by the National Investigation Agency (NIA) showed that training camps were organised by the SIMI and right-wing majoritarian groups or their cadres. Singh said in his reply that the NIA arrested 33 accused belonging to the SIMI and 26 in connection to terror acts involving eight-wing majoritarian groups. The minister also said that charge-sheets have been filed in the concerned courts. In March, the NIA arrested SIMI operative Manzar Imam, a participant in secret SIMI training camps at Vagamon in Kerala's Kottayam district in December 2007, where he mastered skills in firing, tough terrain diving and making and using explosives. He also reportedly attended Jihadi classes to wage war against the country, the minister said. Imam was arrested from Jharkhand. In 2011, the NIA chargesheeted 30 hardcore SIMI members for attending terror camps. The SIMI also organised such camps in Karnataka, Gujarat and Madhya Pradesh besides Kerala, it was said. The outfit, although was banned by the Home Ministry in 2001, continues to be active through frontal organisations. The Home Ministry said last year that at least four outfits work as frontal organisations of the banned SIMI and they are: Tehreek-e-Ehyaa-e-Ummat, Tehreek-Talaba-e-Arabia, Wahdat-e-Islami, and Tahrik Tahaffuz-e-Shaaire Islam. In January, Union Home Minister Susilkumar Shinde remarked that the BJP and the RSS ran terror camps on the Indian soil and his statement drew massive ire from the opposition. Shinde later apologised for his comment after the opposition boycotted him and the situation worsened, indicating at disruption of the crucial budget session of the Parliament.

I think this is a credible source, and see the revelations, no surprise no mainstream media is covering it

http://www.niticentral.com/2013/05/08/w ... 75290.html

WikiLeaks in its revelations said Congress leader KV Thomas told US embassy that Sonia Gandhi wants to ban Bajrang Dal but MK Narayan opposed it saying that religious activities of Pentecostal churches are also a problem. Thomas also refused to blame BJP Government in Karnataka. He said: “Thomas resisted blaming the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) for the recent violence in Karnataka. Echoing what we heard from Mangalore Catholics. Thomas said that “forced” conversions and distribution of inflammatory literature by the new Pentecostal churches in India has harmed the Christian community’s previously harmonious relations with the Hindu majority.”

Chindu style "secular" reporting. Read the headline and then read the article:
SIM used in Malleswaram blast in Bangalore belonged to RSS leader

The SIM card used to trigger the blast in the city on April 17 this year belonged to an RSS leader from the Karnataka-Kerala border, said the police on Friday. .
.

While the SIM card, along with the mobile phone, was reportedly stolen a day before the blast, the owner did not file a complaint. The police refused to identify him.

Highly-placed police sources said the prime accused Kichan Buhari had in his possession 16 SIM cards, including the RSS leader’s. While some of the other stolen SIM cards were used by the suspects for communication purposes, the one used to trigger the Improvised Explosive Device (IED) that left 17 injured, including eleven police personnel, belonged to the RSS leader.

The police, meanwhile, has exonerated the SIM-card owner and ruled out the involvement of a purported right-wing terror group which was investigated initially{ On directions from NIA?}, following the blast

Had this blast happened with the new INC govt, no doubt in my mind that the RSS guy who lost his SIM would have been framed and CNN-IBN/NDTV would have been screaming with 1 week long panel discussions!

Court rejects UP's plea to scrap case against 'HuJI men'

A special court in Barabanki on Friday rejected the Uttar Pradesh government's plea to withdraw a criminal case against alleged HuJI operatives Tariq Qasmi and Khalid Mujahid, who were arrested on December 20, 2007 with arms and explosives. Both were wanted in connection with the serial blasts which took place in Lucknow and Faizabad courts in November 2007.

Government Counsel V K Dwivedi said Judge Kalpana Mishra rejected the government's plea on the ground that there is no public interest in withdrawing the case. The counsel said that the court also noted that the government has not elaborated their decision of withdrawing the case.

The US embassy expressed its unhappiness after Sonia had become the Member of the Association of the Order of Leopold. The cable further sates, “The EC debated whether, by accepting this honour, Gandhi did in fact pledge allegiance to another country. Upon more research, the EC found that in becoming a Member of the Association of the Order of Leopold, one “displays an eternal devotion to Belgium and the monarchy.”

Facebook post on T.N. Governor lands PUCL activist in custody

The president of the Andhra Pradesh unit of the People’s Union for Civil Liberties (PUCL), Jaya Vindhyala, was remanded in judicial custody till May 24 by a court here on Monday, following her arrest on charges of posting derogatory comments on her Facebook timeline on Amanchi Krishna Mohan, MLA of Chirala — a town in Prakasam district — and Tamil Nadu Governor K. Rosaiah.

The police picked up Ms. Vindhyala in Hyderabad on Sunday based on a complaint filed by the ruling party legislator from Chirala.

She has been shifted to the district prison after she failed to furnish the sureties for the bail granted to her.

The police had invoked the provisions of section 66 (A) of the Information Technology Act, and section 120(B) of the IPC which deals with conspiracy.

The PUCL activist’s arrest has once again triggered a debate over the use, misuse and abuse of the provisions of the Information Technology act. Ms. Vindhyala had been opposing the local legislator on various issues and had brought out a fact-finding committee report on various issues accusing the legislator of malpractices. Her Facebook timeline includes her petitions submitted under the RTI act, the PUCL fact-finding committee reports, a legal notice sent by the MLA’s counsel, and her reply to it.

When contacted, the district superintendent of police K. Raghuram Reddy told The Hindu that the arrested activist had posted derogatory comments on the Tamil Nadu Governor and the MLA. The Facebook posts were a part of the fact-finding committee report. Eleven other persons, members of the fact-finding committee, were also cited as accused in the case, but none of them has been arrested so far.

The police had written to Facebook to delete her postings, but her timeline continues to show all her posts as on Monday night.

Senior advocate in New Delhi, Apar Gupta felt that the offence alleged to have been caused seemed to be an offence of defamation covered under Section 499 of the IPC. He said the addition of Section 66A to the FIR was now a growing phenomenon, where any crime with a remote connection to the Internet was getting an obligatory reference to section 66A of the IT Act.

“This is a real problem which is leading to watering down the safeguards against the registration of criminal cases where a complaint has to disclose the specific factual particulars which then in turn lead to the attraction of a specific offence. Since 66A is loosely framed and contains scant legislative guidance, so it can be easily applied in most cases,” Mr. Gupta, who works with Internet companies, pointed out.

Meanwhile, the PUCL has condemned the arrest and said Ms. Jaya Vindhyala had been exposing the corruption of the MLA and other senior officials of the State. In a statement, the national general secretary of PUCL, V. Suresh, questioned the need for the arrest quoting Supreme Court directions, which stipulated that the arrest was not necessary if the accused person would appear before the police on summons and when there was no danger of the person absconding, threatening witnesses or tampering with evidence. He said Ms. Vindhyala was a well known human rights activist and there was no need to arrest her. He demanded her immediate release and closure of all cases against her and other PUCL members in Prakasam district.

What a drama queen:

Sanjay Dutt fears threat to life from 'fundamentalists', wants to surrender before jail

MUMBAI: Bollywood actor Sanjay Dutt, convicted in the 1993 bomb blasts case, today told a TADA court that he was facing threat to life from fundamentalist groups and hence should be allowed to surrender before Yerwada jail instead of the special court here.

Dutt filed an application before special TADA Judge G A Sanap seeking permission to surrender before the Yerwada jail in Pune instead of giving himself up before the special court in south Mumbai.

Dutt, whose conviction under the Arms Act was upheld by the Supreme Court recently, is supposed to surrender on May 16. However, the apex court had reduced to five years the six-year jail term awarded to Dutt by a designated TADA court in 2006 while ruling out his release on probation, saying the "nature" of his offence was "serious".

"The applicant (Dutt) is facing threat to life from fundamentalist groups and those with vested interests," the application said.

IPL fixing: Sreesanth arrested,Dawood Ibrahim link suspected

Mumbai, May 16: Shocking revelations have been emerging in IPL spot fixing case. According to sources, underworld don Dawood Ibrahim's link has been suspected behind the scandal.

Media reports said the arrested bookies are said to be close to Dawood's D-Company. Around 30 calls were routed to Pakistan and more than 12 matches are being investigated for match fixing.

Cricketer S Sreesanth and two other cricketers were arrested by the special cell of the Delhi Police in Mumbai on Wednesday, May 15 on charges of spot-fixing in the ongoing Indian Premier League (IPL).

Seven bookies were also arrested in this connection. Sreesanth and the two others, Ankeet Chavan and Ajit Chandila, play for Rajasthan Royals. Team CEO Raghu Iyer said action will be taken if the charges are proved to be true. He said the management will co-operate with the investigation.

Co-owner of the franchise Shilpa Shetty also said the same, adding that her team will have zero tolerance for anything done against the spirit of the game.

The special cell was tapping phones of several cricketers and bookies and incriminating evidence was found against the three accused. It was said that the spot fixing was being done in matches against Mumbai Indians and Kings XI Punjab.

Sreesath was arrested from his friend's place while the two other players were arrested from the team hotel in Mumbai. The bookies were arrested from Mumbai, Delhi and Ahmedabad.

The bookies reportedly had met Chandila in a Mall in Gurgaon on May 7. A case was filed against Chavan and Chandila at Marine Drive Police Station under Sections 420 (for cheating) and 120(b)(for conspiracy) of the IPC. Details of the case registered against Sreesanth were yet to be known.

Gives an idea of the amount of monitoring needed to crack the case

partha wrote:http://www.hindustantimes.com/Specials/ ... 61357.aspx

Unusually long but almost hourly phone calls, conference calls to and from three notorious betting hubs of Asia, shifting cellphone locations and talk of big, hard cash led the trail to the spot-fixing scandal that Thursday rocked the latest season of India’s domestic T20 league. By their own admission, Delhi Police's special cell sleuths [IB?] were keeping tabs on the unceasing activities of the Mumbai underworld and its possible involvement in funding acts of terror in India.

When they stumbled upon “hundreds of hours of recorded conversations” in early April, they thought a plan for a possible terror attack during the league was being laid out.

After they found that the conversations were being held between men in Pakistan’s Lahore and Karachi cities and Dubai in UAE, investigators stepped up surveillance.

They knew they were onto something big when conversations repeatedly threw up words such as IPL, bhai, money, bookie and target (players).

"Initially, we thought that a sleeper cell was seeking funds for an attack on a crowded urban centre then we realised that it could be a cricket stadium too," said an officer.

"It was only when we began focussing on repeated use of words such as bookie and player that we understood this was an international betting operation. Ajit Chandila was the first person whose phone was put on surveillance."

An allegedly inebriated S Sreesanth was the first of the three Rajasthan Royal cricketers to be nabbed after being lured to the Opium Den pub in south Mumbai's Trident Hotel on the promise "some female company", officers associated with the operation told HT.

"When he was confronted and asked about his role, he claimed he wasn't involved. In fact, he thought using a phone registered in his friend's name would prevent us from connecting him to the conspiracy," the officer told HT on condition of anonymity.

The police said claims that one or the other underworld don was responsible for the latest scandal to hit the controversy-prone league would be pure speculation at the present juncture. Sources, however, claim a retired cricketer of south Asian-origin based outside India could the mastermind.

{Why the South-Asian instead of a country? Could it be DI's sambandi? Or new people entering the racket?}

Delhi Police Commissioner Neeraj Kumar said more details were expected to emerge over the next five days after the questioning of the cricketers.
What a sad end to what could have been a decent career!

They tapped the guy based in UAe's phone. Indeed the individual was using a UAE sim card - i.e. they were intercepting a Dubai number. However, they don't know where this guy was located geographically. Some say the number came up in call records to targets located inside India. Mumbai police say the info came from intercepts of TSP based calls. Delhi police didnt want to reveal the name of the individual.

Vicky Nanjappa reveals who the mystery man is:

Spot fixing-The Dubai D man who did it all May 17, 2013 0 0 Rate This

Pic: http://www.foxsports.com

Sunil Abhichandani is the alleged mastermind who plotted the entire spot fixing for IPL-6 according to Intelligence Bureau officials who are on the trail of this man since 2012. The calls made by him in the late part of 2012 were under the scanner. The IB says that at first it felt like these persons from Dubai were making calls to move hawala money suspected for terror activities. However constant monitoring lead the intel to a betting racket which was being planned on a very large scale for IPL 6.
Sources say that an obscene amount was being spoken off and during the conversation Sunil also speaks of tapping players, team managers and also the manner in which money would be thrown.
Investigators who are probing the players say that the racket is a major one. These players are the final end of the racket but the planning has been meticulous and done over the past year.
Ironically the Intelligence has alerted the police at Maharashtra and also the cricket board about a major betting cartel being activated. This alert was for the police to keep a check on the cartel and for the board to keep players under check. It however now appears that the alert was ignored.
The Intel however issued a look out notice against Sunil and also tipped off the Dubai police about this person.
Sunil has been part of the betting cartel controlled by the D gang since the past 8 to 10 years. For the 20013 IPL he was assigned the job of organising the cartel.
A terror warning- like the intel even the Delhi police at first suspected that this was making of a major terror strike. They kept a tab on conversations made by betting lords in Dubai to the Bombay cartel. Some calls were even made to Kolkata and Delhi. Delhi police sources say that they felt that funds were moved through hawala for terror. Some of the calls were even made from Lahore and Karachi, sources point out.
However in the month of April 2013 matters became clear this was the time that the cartel had managed to fix the plaayers. At first the key words of the conversation related to IPL, hawala, Bombay. Once the players were fixed the conversation had more words such as hawla, players, bhai for the players and betting. It was after this that the police upped the ante against the players.
Ajith Chandila was the first one to come under the scanner. The next in line was Sreesanth who was lured to come to a hotel under the false promise that he would be provided female company. Sreesanth always used a phone belonging to a friend thinking he would not be tracked. Sreesanth in custody has told the cops that he innocent.
Delhi police sources say that Sreesanth and Chandila have denied any involvement. However the third player has confessed, but it is a confession in custody which does not hold good in court.
Delhi police sources say that their evidence is very strong and good enough to nail these players. However they are trying to make Ankeet an approver.
Moreover the Delhi police is also expected to question former Rajasthan Royals player Amith Singh who the police say was the man who fixed the deal with the players with the bookies.

ramana · Post by **ramana** » 17 May 2013 20:10

Sum, The initial report said "Delhi Police Special cell sleuths" had monitored hundreds of hours of phone conversations from anti-terrorist operations point of view.
How, who and where are not useful. What matters is it was done.
Now bringing in Indian embassies aborad even for speculations makes their already difficult lives more hazardous. So what purpose is served in persisting on that line of thought that Indian embassies provided facilties? It may or may not be true and one should leave it at that.

So Vicky Nanjappa's blog shows it was a Dawood Ibrahim's operation that was scuttled.
This Sunil whatshiz name is a small fish.

And note the warnings to Cricket Board were ignored for what ever reasons.
And note the calls to Kolkata and Delhi also.

Most likely the betting was not interrupted and DI gang made some money.

UP: Faizabad blast accused dies in police van, probe on

Thirty-year-old Khalid was among the two Muslim youth who were believed to have been falsely implicated in the case pertaining to the November 23, 2007 blast in the Faizabad court premises, leaving two dead.

The paid media decides that all Muslims are falsely implicated

And even as the Akhilesh government had formally taken a decision to withdraw their terror cases, a Barabanki court turned down the government request for such withdrawal earlier this month.

Khalid was brought to Lucknow for a court hearing after which he was on way back to Faizabad where he was lodged in the district jail. He suddenly fell ill after crossing Barabanki town near Ram Snehi Ghat and by the time cops rushed him to the local hospital he breathed his last.

In keeping with the Samajwadi Party election manifesto, whereby promise was made to save innocent Muslim youth from undue harassment the Akhilesh government took a policy decision to withdraw all such cases where such a suspicion was aroused.

The move was seen as one aimed at consolidating Muslim votes.

Looks like some frustrated police decided to take justice into their hands. Slowly the CONgis and appeasers are making the people law breakers. This destruction of institutions by Maino clan can result in some serious damage to the nation.

Maharashtra Muslims seek 20 pc quota in jobs

Hundreds of Muslims from across Maharashtra, carrying Tricolour, are holiding a padyatra from Malegaon to Mumbai's historic Azad Maidan to seek 20 per cent reservation for country's largest minority group in government jobs and public sector units.

The participants, who started the 300-km-long march two days ago, braving hot winds, reached the borders of Nashik district late on Sunday evening, and are expected to reach Mumbai later this week.

The padyatra, organised under the banner of the Muslim Reservation Federation (MRF), intends to pass through towns like Khandesh, Chandanwad, Wadali Bhoi, Pimpalgaon Baswant, Ozar, Nashik, Wadiwarhe, Ghoti, Igatpuri, Kasara, Shahapur and Bhiwandi on its way to Mumbai.

Social activist Aleem Faizi from Malegaon told Deccan Herald that the Muslims from Pune, Nanded, Yeole, Dhule, Satna and other towns were participating in the padyatra.

Plans for the foot march were initiated by the MRF six months ago, with the primary demand for 20 per cent reservation for the Muslims in the country in government jons and public sector units.

And:
UP wants to drop cases against 7 terror suspects

The UP government, undeterred by the rejection of its application to withdraw cases against the two 2007 serial blasts accused, now wants to withdraw cases against seven others, who have been lodged in jail in connection with terror charges.

Incidentally one of the accused, Nasir Hussain alias Arif, a Harkat-ul-Jihad-e-Islami (HuJI) member, had, according to the police, received training in Pakistan in handling arms and ammunition. He was arrested in Lucknow in June 2006 and the police had seized RDX, detonators, battery and a timer from his possession.

The police had then claimed that Arif had been asked to trigger blasts at important places in the country. The cases against him were currently pending trial in a special court here.

Similarly another accused Mohammad Yaqub was an alleged HuJI member and was arrested from in 2007. A timer device and some explosives were recovered from his possession.

The five others have been accused of raising pro-Pakistan slogans on the court premises.

Expect things to go downhill from here. Pity the poor policemen who risk their limb and life only for this to happen

UP government calls CBI to probe Khalid Mujahid’s death in custody

http://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/indi ... 143080.cms

A day after the death of 2007 serial blasts accused Khalid Mujahid in police custody in transit, the postmortem failed to establish the cause of his death on Sunday, forcing the Uttar Pradesh government to call in the Central Bureau of Investigation for probe. This happened even as Khalid's uncle, Zaheer Alam Falahi, filed an FIR with the Barabanki police accusing former UP DGP Vikram Singh, ADG Brij Lal and 40 others of conspiracy to murder Khalid. In all, 42 cops have FIRs against them.

Khalid was being driven to Lucknow jail in a police van with four other accused of serial blasts in Varanasi, Lucknow and Faizabad, when he fell unconscious and later died. The five undertrials were in Lucknow jail and were taken to Faizabad on Saturday for a court hearing. After the hearing, the five accused were being brought back to Lucknow when Khalid collapsed.

Khalid was among the two terror accused against whom the government had sought to withdraw the cases on grounds that these were false. His arrest, along with that of Tariq Qasmi from outside the Barabanki railway station in 2007, had triggered a storm after their families accused the police of torturing them in illegal detention for a confession. Then Mayawati government had even ordered a judicial commission to probe their arrest which found the allegations of illegal detention true. UP government referred the probe into Khalid's death to CBI on the demand of his uncle Zaheer, who refused to accept Khalid's body until his demand was met.

Zahir's FIR says Khalid was abducted by a team of the special task force (STF) from Mandiahu locality of Jaunpur on December 16, 2007. Five days later, he was shown to have been arrested by STF at Barabanki railway station on the charge of carrying explosives. The complaint also states that Khalid was framed in the court serial blasts by then UP director general of police Vikram Singh, then ADG STF Brij Lal and other top officers.

Zaheer's also alleged that Khalid was found to be falsely implicated by RD Nimesh Commission appointed by the Mayawati government and that the SP government had moved an application on April 26 this year before a district court in Barabanki seeking withdrawal of cases against Khaild and co-accused Tariq Qasmi. The application was rejected by the court on May 10.

The complaint stated that the government had decided to challenge the Barabanki court order. In such a situation, Khalid would have been a key witness against the accused policemen, a complaint said, adding that Khalid was murdered as part of a pre-planned conspiracy.

Meanwhile, People's Union of Civil Liberties (PUCL) has expressed concern over the Khalid's death in police custody. PUCL general secretary Vandana Mishra while demanding a high-level judicial inquiry into the incident said that it has put a question mark on the functioning of police and jail administration.

Maulana Khalid Rasheed Firangi Mahali, chairman, Islamic Centre of India, said that it was surprising that Khalid died in police custody when the government was considering to withdraw cases against him. He has urged the government to order a time-bound inquiry into his death and make the report public.

Meanhwile, amid tight security arrangements, Khalid Mujahid was buried at a graveyard near his native place Matahavana locality under Madiyahu police station in Jaunpur. DIG Range A Satish Ganesh said apart from police, four companies of PAC had been sent to Jaunpur to maintain law and order.

Now that the "communal" BJP is thrown out of the Karnataka state, it is time for "secular" leaders to come out of the wood work

Maudany writes to President
“I am neither an extremist nor a terrorist. I cannot endorse or support any type of terrorist activity. It is entirely against my faith… During the early days of my lecture tours, during the time when the general atmosphere in the country was in ferment over Babri Masjid and other connected issue, there were flaws in my speeches which I had realised later and for which I had sought apologies from Kerala society…

A day after the death of 2007 serial blasts accused Khalid Mujahid in police custody in transit, the postmortem failed to establish the cause of his death on Sunday, forcing the Uttar Pradesh government to call in the Central Bureau of Investigation for probe. This happened even as Khalid's uncle, Zaheer Alam Falahi, filed an FIR with the Barabanki police accusing former UP DGP Vikram Singh, ADG Brij Lal and 40 others of conspiracy to murder Khalid. In all, 42 cops have FIRs against them.

^^ 42 cops including DGPs being booked for one known Paki's death!! Another known D-man's and TSP-ian trio ( alongwith a local college girl accomplice)encounter in Gujarat leading to 30-40 IPS folks including DIG's and a home minister being jailed!!

Truly pity a patriotic policeman's dilemma when confronted by anti-national scum.
