Vijay Namdevrao Wadettiwar, senior Congress Chief and LoP In Maharashtra Meeting on Sunday claimed that the bullet that killed Hemant Karkare was fired by a police officer loyal to the Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh (RSS) and never a terrorist. Former Anti Terrorist Squad (ATS) chief Hemant Karkare was killed throughout a terror assault in Mumbai on November 26, 2008. He acquired three bullet accidents within the retaliatory firing by the terrorists that led to his loss of life.
The assertion triggered a political row within the state in the course of the Lok Sabha elections. BJP and Shiv Sena (Shinde Faction) leaders have hit out on the Congress over its chief’s assertion. Wadettiwar isued a clarification later and stated his assertion his based mostly on former Maharashtra IGP SM Mushrif’s e-book that claims Karkare was not not killed by a terrorist
“Hemant Karkare was not killed by terrorists. Police officer SM Mushrif (Shamshuddin Mushrif) has written this in his e-book. I’m not saying this, however Mushrif has revealed it in his e-book. The police officer has written in his e-book that the bullet with which Hemant Karkare was killed was not from terrorists. Why was this not introduced earlier than the courtroom by advocate Ujjwal Nikam, who’s preventing the case in opposition to Kasab,” he stated. The BJP has fielded Ujjwal Nikam from the Mumbai North Central Lok Sabha seat.
Wadettiwar accused Nikam of being a “traitor.” He stated, Ujjwal Nikam had defamed the Congress by accusing it of serving biryani to the 26/11 Mumbai assault terrorist Kasab. Will somebody give biryani to Kasab? Nikam later admitted that Kasab was not served biryani. What sort of lawyer or traitor didn’t testify in courtroom? If the BJP is giving a ticket to a traitor who hid the reality from the courtroom, then the query arises: why is the BJP supporting these traitors?
Wadettiwar, additional stated that getting Ajmal Kasab hanged was not an enormous deal and any extraordinary lawyer or bailout lawyer might have achieved it. Former Maharashtra IGP SM Mushrif had filed a petition within the Supreme Court docket in search of a CBI probe into the Hemant Karkare homicide case. In accordance with Reside Legislation, the petition stated that Hemant Karkare was not killed by Pakistani terrorists Ajmal Kasab and Abu Ismail, however by those that took benefit and conspired to kill him. The Supreme Court docket later dismissed the case.
Was Kasab Served Biryani In Jail ?
In accordance with the report by Aaj Tak, Ujjwal Nikam clarified it just a few years after saying the biryani factor. “Kasab by no means demanded biryani, and neither did the federal government serve him biryani,” he informed the media on the sidelines of a global convention on counter-terrorism in Jaipur. I fabricated it to stop an emotional ambiance being created in favour of Kasab in the course of the trial.’
