Three
years after the
Hyderabad
Blast,
justice eludes to the victims

Hyderabad: Three years after
the Makkah Masjid blasts, justice still eludes the victims of the
explosions, and of the subsequent police firing and torture in the
name of "investigation", the Civil Liberties Monitoring Committee (CLMC)
said here today.
Five worshipers were killed at Makkah Masjid and nine in the police
firing on 18 May 2007.
CLMC general secretary Lateef Mohd Khan, at a press conference,
urged the Justice Bhaskar Rao Commission probing the circumstances
that led to the police firing to submit its report at the earliest.
He also demanded action against the police personnel responsible for
the firing.
Lateef Khan said the conclusions of the CLMC's fact-finding team
that Hindutva forces were behind the blasts was borne out by the
CBI’s probe into the activities of Abhinav Bharat.
"The Hyderabad police is branding Muslim youths as terrorists and
torturing them in the name of interrogation," he alleged.
The CLMC demanded that the CBI, which is probing the Makkah Masjid
blasts case, should also look into the nexus between the Hindutva
organisations and anti-Muslim police officers.
"Officers of the city police had misled the CBI in their
investigation," Lateef Khan alleged.
Makkah Masjid on High Alert
In view of the recent terror attack, police have beefed up security
in the city ahead of the third anniversary of the Makkah Masjid
blast on Tuesday.
Apart from the 6,000 strong city police force, about 1,000
additional force from Octopus, Andhra Pradesh Special Police (APSP)
and Rapid Action Force (RAF) will be deployed across the city.
However, special emphasis will be on South Zone where about half of
the force would be on the ground.
Taking Makkah mosque as a centre point, police have formed a
three-tier security arrangements in the surrounding areas. At first
level, police teams would keep a watch on movement of people moving
in towards Charminar from Afzalgunj, Falaknuma, Bahadurpura and
Yakutpura. Vehicle checking would be carried out by the forces.
Armed pickets have already been put in place at strategic locations
with personnel ready to block the road immediately on an alert.
Finally, armed police personnel would be guarding the mosque
surroundings.
Special mobile striking teams have been kept ready to counter any
kind of surprise terror attack. Intelligence sleuths in mufti would
be stationed at public places like food joints and look for
suspicious elements.
City police finally seemed to have woken up after the third firing
incident on police in three consecutive years. Sensing the gravity
of the situation and to boost the morale of the force, Hyderabad
police commissioner A K Khan formed a special team to investigate
the Shah Ali Banda firing incident. The team is different from SIT,
which is loaded with investigation of several other terror-related
cases.
"The team comprises of personnel from various city police units, who
have expertise in handling terror-related cases. The team's singe
point agenda is to nab the people behind Shah Ali Banda firing
case," a senior police official said.
The police commissioner has announced Rs five lakh reward for anyone
providing information about the Shah Ali Banda firing case and gave
a mobile number to contact.
"We have received a few calls but so
far there have not been any concrete leads pointing towards the
suspects," an investigating officer said.
