Dubai-bound Bhatkal man detained at Airport; family denies ISIS link allegation

April 7, 2016

Bhatkal, Apr 7: A 34-year-old man from coastal Karnataka's Bhatkal town has been detained at the Pune International Airport when he was about to board a flight to Dubai.

pune Sources said that intelligence officials detained Ismail Musab (34) on Tuesday on charge of suspected links with terror outfit ISIS. Even though he was heading for Dubai, security agencies suspect that he had planned to head to Syria to allegedly join the ISIS.

Security agencies have been keeping a strict vigil after Ismail Musab's name cropped up during Internet chats with members of the ISIS, which is being monitored to look for possible followers of the terror group, active in parts of Syria and Iraq.

They said Ismail Musab was detained as the Union Home Ministry had issued a Look Out Circular against him sometime ago. However, it was not sure whether it was the same Ismail Musab or not.

At least 14 youths have been arrested early this year by the National Investigation Agency as part of its probe into indoctrination of youths by the banned terror group.

Father speaks

Meanwhile, Ismail Musab's father Abdul Rawoof, a resident of Darul Zakwan, Ayesha Masjid compound, Aminuddin road, Bhatkal, has rubbished allegations against the farmer.

“My son, Ismail Musab, has studied only up to class eighth and he is computer illiterate. He carries a simple mobile phone, which does not have internet facility. How can he chat online with ISIS members? What is ISIS,” asks a helpless father.

Abdul Rawoof said that he received a call from Ismail at 1.10 am on Wednesday. “He told me that he was detained by the immigration officials at the Pune International Airport after they found a meat dish in his hand baggage and they wanted to test it as they suspected that it could be beef and beef is banned in Maharashtra. He said that he would go to Mumbai. I haven't heard from my son since then,” said an emotionally charged parent.

He said that on Tuesday evening, two policemen came to their residence in Darul Zakwan, Ayesha Masjid compound, Aminuddin Road to inquire if Ismail was his son. “I told them that he was my eldest son and that he had gone to Dubai to look for a job,” said Rawoof.

Ismail is married and has two children. “He doesn't live with us, but visits us very often. He had gone to Dubai before he got married. He wanted to try his luck again there,” he said.

When asked why Ismail went to Pune to board a flight to Dubai, his father said that the airfares from Bengaluru and Mangaluru were more expensive than from Pune and he decided to fly from Pune.

“He had taken a bus to Pune on Monday (April 4). I saw him off. I don't know where he is. My son is innocent. I know the police will let him off, because he has not done any wrong. Nobody has called me yet,” said Rawoof.

He rubbished the claim that Ismail was planning to go to Syria. “Ismail is the eldest of the four children. He was working in Dubai as a labourer and had returned to Bhatkal for his marriage. He wanted to return to Dubai for a better income,” said a local resident.

Meanwhile, sources in the NIA said that Ismail was being questioned by multiple Central agencies at an undisclosed place. “He has not been arrested so far,” said an officer on condition of anonymity.

Manganna, Are you saying that this SURA do not incite violence ? Islam is not for peaceful people.

Bopanna...You can search for answer on same internet where you found the questions. I have seen several website which has answer for your sick question..May Allah Guide You

Koran instruct in violence, 4:89; 5:33. 9,5,111,123. 47;4. but still further the Koran also teaches that the Jewish people are descendants of swine and apes.2:65.; 7:166; 5:60. T

RK, Muslims are never innocent

Suspected link with IS? and arrested. Confirmed murder are walking free in the streets. What a Joke. We have seen how they frame Omar Khalid of JNU. Unfortunately person arrested has no space to talk to people directly. We need to stop saffron in NIA to stop arresting innocents unless proven guilty. RSS is using NIA to frame Muslims.

BJP leader Kapil Mishra who incited violence in Delhi gets Y-grade security

News Network

March 3,2020

New Delhi, Mar 3: Bharatiya Janata Party leader Kapil Mishra, who instigated violence in northeast Delhi by provoking mobs, has now been provided with 24x7 security. After he claimed threat to his life, he has been provided with “Y” category security — which entitles him to six security personnel round-the-clock to guard him in and outside the city.

He had fought the 2020 Delhi Assembly elections by giving inflammatory remarks around the anti-Citizenship Amendment Act in Shaheen Bagh, and lost to Aam Aadmi Party candidate. But he continued to issue provocative remarks.

While there is clear evidence of his scandalous statements just a day before the violence was unleashed on Muslims in Delhi last week where around 50 people were killed, no action has been taken against him so far. Instead, he is being treated as a hero in his party.

As per sources, Mishra complained that he got life threats over the past week in wake of the violence and based on his request, the Delhi Police has provided the security cover.

Mishra had taken to social media platform Twitter and alleged that he was receiving threats via WhatsApp, Twitter and Facebook, from Indian and foreign accounts.

“I am constantly being threatened with murder on the phone, on WhatsApp, on email. Hundreds of threats are being given continuously from the country and abroad. I don’t fear this hate campaign against me,” he had said on Twitter on March 1.

Mishra had on February 23 made an incendiary speech, following which North-East Delhi witnessed anti-Muslim violence.

The Supreme Court of India on Monday said it will on Wednesday (March 4) hear a plea that sought immediate FIRs against Kapil Mishra, Union Minister of State for Finance Anurag Thakur and other leaders for their recent hate speech, which allegedly triggered the violence in Delhi. The plea was filed by Delhi violence survivors.

The apex court bench, comprising Chief Justice SA Bobde, listed the matter for hearing after senior advocate Colin Gonsalves, who is appearing on behalf of the survivors told the SC that the Delhi High Court had last week adjourned the matter for six weeks even as “people are dying every day”.
