5 Questions On Malegaon Blast Case. (2006)

The bail for Malegaon blast 2006 accused raises several questions pertaining to counter terrorism approach. I have the following questions in my mind: 1)       Why were the fake people arrested & made to “confess”? Was it done due to media pressure or to impress political bosses? 2)       Considering this case, I am inclined to ask whether accused arrested in other cases of terrorism during the tenure of concerned officials are genuine or not? 3)       If genuine accused are not caught, then they would commit more offences. Were the officials not aware of such grave implications? 4)       Now what will government do so to deter such investigators fooling (& jeopardizing the lives of ) public again? 5)       Fake persons were made accused not just by ATS, but also there were certain agencies acting behind the curtains. Do we need to still trust them?

Underworld Don Dawood Ibrahim alongwith one of his brothers Musatkeem Kaskar & lieutenant Chota Shakeel has relocated to China recently. Their identities have been changed. However, Anees Ibrahim, Tiger Memon & other associates of Dawood are still in Pakistan .   Dawood’s shifting to Pakistan has been facilitated by Pakistan ’s ISI. Last July ISI chief Ahmed Suja Pasha went to China and among several things which were discussed one was of relocation of Dawood Ibrahim. It is said that Dawood & others have been relocated near Guangzhou , a city which is around 2 hrs drive from Hongkong. A large number of Pakistanis reside in Gunagzhou & have businesses related to electronic gadgets, hotels etc.  It might be a temporary relocation as after the Abottabad incident, Pakistan didn’t want to face similar embarrassment. The growing acrimony between US & Pakistan led to the fears that Dawood’s presence in Pakistan could get exposed. Getting Dawood from China will

Regret killing journalist J.Dey: Chota Rajan.

Chota Rajan called up from number +3444 at 1: 54 pm. He said the following in conversation with me: 1)     I will kill Dawood Ibrahim if he comes to India . He said this in response to the interview given by Parvez Musharaf to an Indian news channel. 2)     I regret killing journalist J.Dey. ( On my question-Why did you kill J.Dey?) -          J.Dey was writing many articles against me, so once I called him up & asked politely if he had some personal problem with me. He denied, but said that he is going to London & I should meet him there. -          When J.Dey went to London , I got a call from my London based informer named Usman. Usman warned me that I should not go to London to meet J.Dey as he was meeting Chota Shakeel people there. This made me suspicious. -          After returning from London J.Dey spoke to me and asked why I didn’t meet him. When I said I couldn’t come for some reason, he told that soon he is going to Phillipines & I should meet him there

Mumbai Attacks : 59 hours of death.

9 pm is a good pack up time for the city that never sleeps. So, I had finished work and wanted to meet a ‘source’ for an informal meeting. Around 9.30 pm on the night of 26 th November, I had caught a taxi from Mohammad Ali road for CST railway station. The cab would have hardly moved a few metres when an informer phoned me to tell that there was firing at the Leopold Café in Colaba area of South Mumbai . He said that it seemed like a scuffle between a few groups as a result of which two people had started firing at everyone in the cafe. Around 100 rounds had been fired already. 100 rounds!! I got a little worried and concerned. The shootouts during gang-wars in Mumbai were not used-to experiencing 100 rounds of fire. Mostly the shooters would escape after firing 5-6 bullets. It looked like something other than a gang-war to me. I immediately phoned the bureau and hollered for an OB Van and a reporter to be deployed at the Leopold café and ordered my cab-driver to steer me to the sp
