Vijay Namdevrao Wadettiwar, senior Congress Leader and LoP In Maharashtra Assembly 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 obtained three bullet accidents within the retaliatory firing by the terrorists that led to his dying.
The assertion triggered a political row within the state throughout 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 mentioned his assertion his primarily based 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 book. I am not saying this, but Mushrif has published it in his book. The police officer has written in his book that the bullet with which Hemant Karkare was killed was not from terrorists. Why was this not brought before the court by advocate Ujjwal Nikam, who is fighting the case against Kasab,” he mentioned. The BJP has fielded Ujjwal Nikam from the Mumbai North Central Lok Sabha seat.
Wadettiwar accused Nikam of being a “traitor.” He mentioned, 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 type 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 mentioned that getting Ajmal Kasab hanged was not a giant deal and any unusual lawyer or bailout lawyer might have completed it. Former Maharashtra IGP SM Mushrif had filed a petition within the Supreme Court looking for a CBI probe into the Hemant Karkare homicide case. According to Live Law, the petition mentioned 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 later dismissed the case.
Was Kasab Served Biryani In Jail ?
According to the report by Aaj Tak, Ujjwal Nikam clarified it a number of years after saying the biryani factor. “Kasab never demanded biryani, and neither did the government serve him biryani,” he advised the media on the sidelines of a world convention on counter-terrorism in Jaipur. I fabricated it to stop an emotional ambiance being created in favour of Kasab throughout the trial.’
