Anna Hazare given Z-plus security after second threat letter


Mumbai, Aug 21 (NDTV): Anna Hazare has been given 'Z-plus' Class by Security the Maharashtra after the social activist received the second threat letter in days, the Maharashtra Government has said.

A police report was filed today after Hazare received the second threat letter in 10 days.

"The letter mentions name of one Mahadeo Panchal from Latur district and was posted from Osmanabad," Hazare's aide Datta Awari told PTI over phone from Parner.

Ten days ago, Hazare received another threat letter which stated that he would be "bumped off" if he does not dissociate himself from Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal.

A case was registered for criminal intimidation at Parner police station in Ahmednagar district, a police official from Parner had said.

"The letter was dated August 7 and is mostly written in English," the official said.

The letter warned Hazare that he will meet the fate of rationalist Narendra Dabholkar, who was killed in Pune two years back.

The letter also asked the Gandhian to stay put in his native Ralegan Siddhi village, police said.

The village will tomorrow undertake a cleanliness drive and this will be followed by a plantation campaign.

    @ jeetendra hegde, mumbai,
    When Nagpur's RSS headquarters (Hegdewar Bhavan) and RSS chef Mohan Bhagawat were given Z plus security, don't you think it is waste of taxpayers money? These anti national, anti Mahatma Gandhi, who are dividing India (already divided) are given Z plus security, why can't Sri Anna Hazare should be given security. RSS members should protect their own buildings and leaders. Our illiterate Chaiwala thinks that he is a PM only for RSS. Tomorrow if any other terror organizations may ask for Z plus security. Is he ready to give them security for them too??
