    The Modus operandi is clear . Similar to what we saw in kerala gold smuggling .The front names was Nair and Kusuma . .. This is well thought of ....keep front as some ram,shiva,rohit etc ..so there is some balancing act.
    The Nefarious designs of left and Islamic terror outfits is simply outstanding .. A big salute ..The Maya Gang is not a lone wolf attack ..this is a larger ploy. We have seen this worldwide ..Syria -russia supported islamic terror outside of their territory In ,France -All leftist are sympathetic towards the ISlamic terrorists . Interestingly the left wont tolerate Islam within their territories .. See China ..and Russia ..what they have done with uigir muslims and so on.

    The Islamic religion is trying to use democratic laws like that of India ,Europe,US,australia canada etc .. Its time these democracies evolve to counter the threat of islamic terror.
    Unless you come out of your deeper brain wash called religion ,you cannot find peace and liberation in the real sense .You will be simply worried about your identity Mr observer .
