Was it a fake encounter? Video of killing 8 SIMI activists raises doubts

Bhopal, Oct 31: Even though police have rubbished the charge of staging afake encounter' to eliminate eight alleged SIMI activists, a video clip of the encounter has now raised questions about the veracity of the claims of security forces.

avideoThe suspects were killed after they allegedly escaped from Bhopal Central Jail, killing a security guard, according reports. The encounter by the Madhya Pradesh police took place at the Eintkhedi village just hours after the alleged prison-break.

The police described the encounter as a raging gun battle, with the SIMI members instigating the gunfire. However, in a video obtained by CNN News18 (which was shot by the sarpanch of the Acharpura village), the police are seen shooting at a man, who was not retaliating, in close range.

CNN News18 reports that the only weapons that were recovered from SIMI members were knives. The encounter took place at 8 am on Monday and the Madhya Pradesh government went public with the same at 11 am. Police reactions were not available immediately.

The SIMI activists had escaped early on Monday by scaling the prison wall with the help of bed sheets. They had slit the throat of a head constable using a steel plate and glass and tied up another before they escaped from the B block of the jail.

The Bhopal Central Jail is known to be one of the safest prisons in Madhya Pradesh.

The eight SIMI activists were identified as Amzad, Zakir Hussain Sadiq, Mohammad Salik, Mujeeb Shaikh, Mehbood Guddu, Mohammad Kalid Ahmed, Aqeel and Majid.

“Eight SIMI or Students Islamic Movement of India activists escaped at around 2-3 am by killing a jail security guard,” DIG Bhopal Raman Singh told PTI.

Madhya Pradesh home minister Bhupendra Singh had said jail officials who were responsible for looking after the security had been suspended.

The home ministry sought a report from the Madhya Pradesh government about the jail break.

The ministry also asked the Madhya Pradesh government to send a detailed report about the jail break, whether there was any lapse on the part of the jail administration and the steps taken to check such incidents.

This was the second major jail break by SIMI operatives in three years. In 2013 seven members of the group had escaped from a jail in Khandwa, Madhya Pradesh. The central security agencies were particularly anxious as four of the seven SIMI activists who escaped could be arrested only after three years and during the period of their hiding the militants were involved in multiple incidents of terror and a bank robbery.

While in hiding, the SIMI men were allegedly involved in terror activities in several states including Madhya Pradesh, Andhra Pradesh, Telangana, Karnataka, Tamil Nadu, Maharashtra, Uttarakhand and Uttar Pradesh.

If u say all terrorists are not Muslims and agree that the 8 people who were killed are non Muslims why are you shedding tears for them ?

72 virgins await for them anyway. They should thank the Indian police for giving them Hannah so soon rather than waste taxpayers money eating biriyani.

HAPPY DIWALI

rajesh, india
First of all you need to understand that there is nothing called islamic terrorists. If you call these 8 people as islamic terrorists then what what label you would like to give to Praveen Togadiya, Karnal Purohith, Sadhvi prajna, Swami aseemanand and all the members of sanghi terrorist organizations.

Cheddis have people like Bopanna and Rajesh whose head is working worse than DONKEYs ... Whatever given accepts it... without realising the life lost...
There are many CULPRITS who would have been exposed the reality of cheddi's involvement in crimes across india, if the court continues the trial .. it would have even proved the false case against these innocents.
To hide their Evil agenda these kind of killing happening across the country after Cheddi govt is in power...
But Truth will over take the evil whatever evil they play ... We will know the reality very soon God willing.

Mangaluru, May 23: Criticising the Karnataka government's fresh protocol for management of Covid-19 as expensive, a prominent physician in the city has demanded its withdrawal.

According to Dr B Srinivas Kakkilaya, the protocol released by the Health and Family Welfare Department on May 15 enlists unnecessary and unconfirmed tests and treatments. 

The protocol has classified Covid-19 cases into three categories and has provided for hospitalisation of all three categories of patients, from asymptomatic to the most severely ill.

In a letter to the government, Dr Kakkilaya said: "The protocol suggests several investigations to be done right on the day of admission, including blood counts, liver and renal function tests, chest X Ray, ECG, CT scan of the chest, and other special investigations, all of which, if done, will cost Rs 25,000 per patient."

"In the coming days when lakhs of patients are likely to be infected with SARS CoV2, is it necessary and feasible to hospitalise and test all these patients at Rs 25,000 per person," he questioned.

The treatment options suggested in the protocol are also surprising, he pointed out. "The protocol recommends choloroquine, azithromycin, oseltamivir, zinc and vitamin C for all patients, from asymptomatic to the severely ill, and also anti coagulant injections for many patients. All these would cost at least Rs 5,000 per patient. For severe cases of Covid-19, many unproven and experimental treatments have been suggested, which are very expensive and highly questionable," Dr Kakkilaya notes.

Therefore, this protocol, he asserted was not evidence based and likely to do more harm than good. He said these unnecessarily expensive tests and allowing private companies to conduct trials on Covid-19 patients is likely to be misused by vested interests and must be immediately withdrawn, and instead, a protocol that is evidence-based, simple and avoiding unnecessary expenses, must be developed.

Mangaluru, Jan 2: The Muslim Central Committee of Dakshina Kannada and Udupi has dropped its plan to stage a massive protest against the contentious Citizenship (Amendment) Act and National Register of Citizens on January 4 at Mangaluru’s Nehru Maidan.

Addressing a press conference here today, committee chief K S Mohammed Masood made this announcement.

“All the 28 organisations that had decided to stage protest under the leadership of the Muslim Central Committee, have unanimously agreed to temporarily cancel the protest plan after the city police refused permission for the event,” he said.

Mr Masood requested the people, especially the youth, not to lose patience. “No one should head to Nehru Maidan on January 4 as Muslim leaders have unanimously decided to cancel the protest,” he urged.

S M Rasheed Haji, Y Abdulla Kunhi, Umar UH, Ibrahim Kodichal, B M Mumtaz Ali, Khasim H K, Mansoor Ahmed Azad and Asif Deals were present in the press meet.

Muslim organisations felicitate State BJP Chief Nalin Kumar

 

I want to know from them wat was the need for this. Has this helped the ordinary Mangalore Muslims in anyway. I would not have asked abt this if the program was conducted in your house. But here it is done in the name of Muslims. We need to stop being intellectually dishonest

We respect ur decision sir.

 

But there are a lot of questions about it on people's mind.

We need to be updated about ur next plan of action.

Are u planning to approach the court for gaining the permission from the police, bcoz otherwise I don't think we will get the permission

 

Secondly, a few days back I wanted to contact Muslim central committee office to confirm if the protest Wil be there. I googled for the no, but the no. did not exist. Does that mean the Muslim central committee does not have an office or telephone no????

This only shows how organised we are.

Requesting Muslim central committee to get their house in order. Get more professional. Also consult people to utilise various platform to responsibly collect funds from so many ordinary bearys who want to donate money, but don't know whom to send it to.

We need an action committee to handle such situations. It must consist a battery of lawyers to fight the cases filed by the police.

If our leaders are old, they need to groom new leaders into the committee.

 

Moreover, it is important to question these so called leaders about their fecilitation program conducted for making kateel wen he won the election. Wat was the purpose of such fecilitation. Becoz I don't think he gives a damn when our community suffered. I question, whether all this is done in our name only to gain your contact and flourish ur business???

Never ever dare to do so in the name of Muslims
