11 Terror Suspects Held, 'Catastrophe' Averted: Karnataka Police
Bangalore, Aug 30 (IANS): Eleven people with links to terror outfits Lashkar-e-Taiba and HUJI, and planning to assassinate leading Karnataka politicians, some journalists and Hindu leaders have been arrested in Karnataka and a "catastrophe" averted, a top police officer said Thursday.
Location where suspects were picked from
"A catastrophe has been averted in Karnataka following the arrests," state police chief Lalrokhuma Pachau told reporters here.
The eleven - six arrested from Bangalore and five from northern town of Hubli - were "handled" by Lashkar-e-Taiba (LeT) and Harkat-ul-Jihad-e-Islami (HUJI) operators based in Saudi Arabia, Bangalore city Police Commissioner B.G. Jyothiprakash Mirji said at the joint press meet.
The eleven were arrested late Wednesday, Mirji said.
Arms and ammunition, including a foreign made 7.65mm pistol and many rounds, have been seized from those arrested in Bangalore, he said.
Earlier Report
NDTV
A journalist in Bangalore has been arrested for suspected links with the Indian Mujahideen. The police are being tight lipped about the arrest, but sources say the journalist worked with an English daily.
This arrest comes even as four suspected Indian Mujahideen activists involved in the 2010 Chinnaswamy Stadium blast case were picked up from Hubli for questioning, police said.
Police sources the five arrests came after a tip off from the Uttar Pradesh police team which was in Bangalore yesterday.
They say the four men arrested from Hubli used the highly populated area of the city in Northern Karnataka as hideout to conduct recces for their operations. The police for now are still investigating the role each of them played in the blast.
Sources also add that there could be more arrests in the Chinnaswamy stadium blast case, possibly from Bengal, again based on a tip off of the UP police.

Fri, Aug 31 2012Mr. Jayaraj,
who said Muslims in India never protested against Terrorism? if you are not aware, Deoband has already given fatwa against terrorism and no mosques in India let the dead bodies of terrorists who attacked Mumbai on 26/11 to bury in their graveyard. I wonder why our Hindu brothers are not protesting against Saffron terrorism spread by Sangh Parivar.
Mr. Dinesh Poojary,
Rashtra Nirmana Samsthe by beating and molesting women? by blasting bombs in religious? By hoisting Pakistan flag in Hindustan? or by killing helpless women and children in massacre?
I, being an Indian and a Muslim strongly condemn any act of terrorism which tries to destabilize my country and whoever indulges in it irrespective of caste, creed and religion is the enemy of my country and i want them to get severe punishment. Jai Hind.

If these youngsters planned to create chaos and division among different religions by assassinating innocent public on the streets, then they should be tried as terrorists and be given death penalty for being unpatriotic, and trying to divide the nation. Otherwise, who cares if a few corrupt politicians are 'gone with the wind'? Seriously i don't mind. It might do us a world of good!

IT IS MORE IMPORTANT TO READ BECAUSE IT HAS BEEN WRITTEN BY A RETIRED POLICE OFFICER.THE BOOK HAS BEEN REVIEWED IN MOST OF THE NATIONAL DAILIES AND INTERNATIONAL PERIODICALS.
THIS GOES INTO HISTORY OF OCCURRENCES OF RIOTS IN INDIA, ROOT CAUSE OF RELIGIOUS FRICTIONS, REASONS FOR THE ISSUES NOT BEING EXPOSED, CONTROL OF MEDIA, THE FORCES AGGRESSIVE IN SPREADING HATRED AND SOCIAL FRICTIONS ETC. THIS BOOK HAS BEEN REFERRED BY THE HIGH COURT, MUMBAI. THE ELIMINATION OF HONEST, SECULAR AND SECULAR POLICE OFFICER LIKE KARKARE, SALASKAR ETC WAS REALLY VERY SHOCKING FOR CONCERNED CITIZENS OF INDIA. THIS BOOK ANSWERS THE BIG 'Q'.

Minorities in India were derived from majority only. They have not come from any other planet. Hence better you forget your majority ,minority theory and consider all as Indians.
Farhan bhai,
For your community everything is nothing but conspiracy theory and nothing is real. If you see the wars happening today across the world, one side is always a particular community. Hence it is better to clean your own house before pointing at others.
Only solution is forget all the religions and pray to one only true god.

Thu, Aug 30 2012Please read the book "Who killed Hemant Karkere". You will find the real problem, real people and real terrorists. Just blaming and speculating is not enough..Holocaust of minorities is the agenda.... if one is found to be an actual terrorist, dont show remorse, cut him into pieces. But just to implement some agenda, onen should not target a particular community..I always stand for truth and I dont fear for my life if truth is spoken...People like Karkere have exposed the safron terrorism....In Indian soil terrorism takes place because of Indians involvement... involvement by both communities.. Nobody is a saint. Only politicians are benefited by blame game and political parties know when and where terrorist attack would take place. Outside terrorism can be curtailed, but inside terrorism is a dangerous sign and need to be studied and remedial measures taken in the larger interest of the society. Jai Hind and Vande Mataram

Mangalore. Please dont make a fool of yourself.
Bhat, Mangalore. RSS, VHP & the Sangh Parivar are the only patriatic organisations in India. Thats why they do not hoist the Indian flag on Independence day instead they are more interested in the flag of Akhand Bharat. Wonder how Bangladeshis become illegal if they believe in Akhand Bharat (Im Sarcastic here).
Farhan, Oman, this is not a plot against peace loving Muslims, but action (rightly) against traitors. Living in India and carrying out attacks against your maotherland is 'piece' loving. I dont think any true Indian will accept your theory.

thats Cynicism ,Again you are making a mistake in bringing in VHP/RSS and their affiliates.Everybody knows their hidden agenda it is pretty clear. If you ask me about common a Hindu brother then I am with you.likewise no common muslim preaches terrorism or violence. if you have to blame a certain muslim organisation you do it but that is not the ideology of a common muslim. It can be a retaliation against attrocities or politically motivated one. Truth is Muslims are being targeted from all corners & all force are busy to tarnish the muslim image.
