BJP again demands Congress apology for ‘defaming Hindus’

by

The BJP on Tuesday again criticised the Congress for allegedly coining the term “saffron terror” to defame the Hindus and sought an apology from its leadership, even though the opposition party had a day earlier denied the charge.
“(Congress leaders) Sonia Gandhi and Rahul Gandhi should apologise to the Hindu community for defaming them globally and taking the Hindus for granted. You can’t take the Hindus for granted. We believe in development of all and appeasement of none,” Bharatiya Janata Party Spokesperson Sambit Patra said at a press conference he addressed along with newly elected Rajya Sabha member G.V.L. Narsimha Rao.

Patra had on Monday also, accused the Congress of coining the term and sought an apology from its leadership. However, the Congress had maintained that neither its President Rahul Gandhi nor any other party functionary had ever used the term “saffron terror” and that its political rivals were levelling “baseless allegations”.

On Tuesday, Patra demanded an apology from former Union Home Minister Sushil Kumar Shinde and Union Finance Minister P. Chidambaram for allegedly using the term “saffron terror”.

The BJP leader said: “Rahul Gandhi and Chidambaram should hold a joint press conference and speak on the issue.”

Dubbing Rahul Gandhi’s thinking as “anti-Hindu”, the BJP leader said a telegram sent in 2009 by then US Ambassador Tim Roemer to the US State Department mentioned that “Rahul Gandhi told the US envoy that there was some support for the Lashkar-e-Taiba in certain sections of India’s Muslims, but the bigger threat may be of the rise of radical homegrown Hindu groups which create tension”.

“This is the position of the Congress. Rahul Gandhi needs to answer all these questions. We demand that he should seek apology for what he told the US Ambassador against the Hindus. He can’t just say that it was a passing statement and nothing to do with the party,” Patra said.

The fresh war of words between the two parties on the term “saffron terror” began after a Special National Investigation Agency (NIA) court in Hyderabad acquitted all five accused in the 2007 Mecca Masjid bomb blast case on Monday.

by

Two online fraudsters who were duping wealthy businessmen on the pretext of offering them a business partnership in international companies were arrested by the city cyber crime police.
The accused – Aakash V. Goni (39) a resident of Mira Road, Mumbai and his associate Surendra Rangad Puran (42) of Jogeshwari, Mumbai – posed as foreigners and top executives of veterinary healthcare companies in the US and Canada to trap the businessmen.
The city cyber crime police got involved after a city-based businessman lodged a complaint, saying Aakash and Surendra cheated him in the name of the partnership and swindled him of Rs 30 lakh in September last year.

After registering the complaint, the police managed to trace and arrest the accused after seven months of investigation. The police have recovered a car and four mobile phones worth Rs 3 lakh from them.

The businessman then contacted the accused and explained to them about the deal, to which the accused told him to go ahead. He then met the accused who had offered the chemical and struck a deal for Rs 30 lakh. The accused asked the businessman to deposit the amount into a bank account after which he said the consignment would be dispatched.

But once the businessman deposited the amount, the mobile phone of the accused was switched off. That was when the businessman realised that he was being swindled and filed a complaint with the cyber crime police.

The call detail records and bank account details of the accused helped the police trace them in Mumbai. Based on their inputs, their gang members – Chethan Dharma (29) from Rourkela in Odisha, Shamim Ahmed (36) from Devariya district in UP, Tubudi Mukadi Jean (25), a Congo national, who was staying in the city on a student visa, and his associate Philip Opeyemi (30) from Nigeria, who was staying in Kalyan Nagar on a student visa, were also arrested.

The police said that the accused are part of an online racket and have several bank accounts which they use to transfer money from one account to another. The accused Aakash’s father was a Kannada film director and producer, the investigation revealed. The police now suspect that the accused might have duped many more such gullible businessmen using similar tactics.
