Report of the fact finding committee on the bomb blast
at Mecca Masjid and subsequent police firing

A fact finding committee was constituted by the
organizations mentioned at the end of this report to
collect facts about the bomb blast at Mecca Masjid on
18-05-2007 at Hyderabad and the subsequent police
firing.

The committee visited the Mecca Masjid on 20-05-2007,
enquired with the eye witnesses to the occurrence in
Masjid and later with the injured at Owaisi Hospital
and arrived at the following conclusions.

The committee strongly condemns the heinous act of
bomb blasting at Mecca Masjid killing 5 and injuring
about 35 people.

The committee equally condemns the police firing on
innocent people killing 9 and injuring several others
with out any provocation.

The committee is of the opinion that the bomb blast at
Mecca Masjid while the Friday prayers were going on
was aimed at only to terrorize Muslim people and to
shatter their confidence.

The committee also feels that the police firing was
also aimed at terrorizing Muslim people and to crush
even a small attempt of agitation from the Muslims.

The police firing was done at a place which is about
200 meters from the Masjid which show that the police
were aiming at people who were proceeding towards
Masjid or going away from the Masjid.

According to the version of the injured in the police
firing, the firing was aimed at people which have no
concern to the incident. One was fired at while he was
proceeding towards his house by that side and another
17 year old boy was fired at when he was going in to
the Asra hospital to donate his blood for one of his
relative. Yet another was fired at when he was trying
to lift a fallen man of the bullet injuries. These are
classic examples of how the police fired
indiscriminately. According to police version which
appeared in the press that they fired at the mob which
was about to attack a petrol pump and a wine shop. In
fact there were no signs of any attack. The petrol
pump was closed on 3 sides and opened to road on one
side which is well guarded. If the shutters of the
wine shop were down it will be easily protected. It is
ridiculous for the police to claim that they were to
kill 9 people and injure about 25 people in order to
save a petrol pump and a wine shop. It appears that
the police value property more that human lives.

More condemnable than the above incident is the police
opening fire into the Masjid putting the rifle on the
iron rails of the Masjid from the road side. An eye
witness to this ghastly behavior of police is none
else than Mr. Mohd Ghouse a former cooperator from
that area. When the people trying to rush out after
the blast the police aimed at firing at such terror
stricken people. The manner in which the police opened
fire, one aiming inside the Masjid and the other
firing indiscriminately from a place away from the
Masjid show that the police also aiming at terrorizing
Muslims.

The police firing started after about an hour of the
blast. People must have been by that time agitated and
anxious to know about the condition of their relatives
who have gone to offer namaz. The police did not warn
them. Even if the mob has become uncontrolled, the
police should have used rubber bullets. All the
injuries are from bullets only. There are no traces of
any injury of a rubber bullet, which shows that the
police simply fired at the mob. Till to date there is
no evidence of who gave the permission to open fire.

The government till date is not in a position to give
the exact number of deaths due to bomb blast and
police firing. According to information gathered by
the committee the deaths due to police firing are more
than the deaths due to bomb blast. This fact alone
speaks volumes.

According to version given by the police the bomb
blast is of the handiwork of two Islamic organizations
which operate from outside India. In fact the police
has released a Muslim name who is said to be the
master mind of the blast. According to facts reveled
by a medical officer of Asra Hospital who treated the
injured, some nails, door hinges, and briefcase handle
were removed from the bodies of the injured. This
establishes that the bomb used in the blast was a
crude one made with indigenous technology. The
injuries received during the blast and the foreign
objects recovered from the bodies of the injured do
not establish any connection with either RDX or TNT.
The naming of the two Islamic organizations as
responsible for the blast with out any acceptable clue
reveal the mind of the investigating agency either to
mislead the public or to divert their attention. By
identifying the probable accused and the organizations
with out any preliminary evidence show the attempts of
the police to close all other areas of suspicion. The
investigating agency can only come up with the names
of the organizations which are responsible for the
blast only after eliminating all other organizations
which can be suspected in such nature of crimes.

The committee feels that both the bomb blast and the
subsequent police firing are aimed at terrorizing
Muslims and trampling minimum agitation from that
side.

The state government should take the responsibility
for the whole incident. Even after the warnings by the
central government about the possible terrorist
attacks in states including Andhra Pradesh, the police
did not take any necessary precautions to guard
sensitive places like places of worship. It seams
there will be regular check up at Mecca Masjid
especially on Fridays by the concerned police.
Surprisingly there was no regular check up on that
Friday. Sufficient force was also not deployed when
about 10,000 people gathered at the time of namaz. It
is unfortunate to know that the government is
appreciating the police for controlling the situation
instead of taking action against the police who are
responsible either for the lapse regarding
arrangements at the Masjid or for indiscriminate
killing people with out any provocation.

This is the first time in the history of Hyderabad
city or the for the matter of India where a bomb was
blast when thousands of people were offering prayers
in a mosque. It is a very serious matter and of
concern for all to know the persons responsible for
it. No investigating agency can simply wash off its
hands by naming terrorist organization. When such
incidents are likely to happen again, it is the duty
of the investigating agency to clear of all possible
suspicions and arrive at a definite conclusion. Even
after lapse of 4 days no such traces are evident in
the investigation. It is surprising to know that one
more cell phone was recovered on 20-05-2007 from the
pound. In such incidents there shall be no left up
from any side.

The committee makes the following Demands.

1. The committee holds the chief minister of Andhra
Pradesh morally responsible for the bomb blast and
administratively responsible for the police firing.
Hence the committee demands the resignation of the
chief minister.

2. In addition to the indiscriminate firing by the
police there were innumerable lapses from the police
side to protect the lives of innocent people. No
responsible police officer is forth coming owning the
responsibility for the police firing. Hence the
committee demands the immediate suspension of the
Director General of Police and other high officers who
have immediately trooped at the place of incident and
responsible for the firing. Prosecution shall be
launched against those police men who opened fire at
innocent people either killing them or causing
injuries.

3. The investigation shall be immediately handed over
to CBI.

2. Hyderabad Blasts: Malegaon
Syndrome Travels South

By Mubasshir Ahmed

23 May, 2007

It was a blast from the recent past. The past was
replicated with pure precision and exemplary
execution. Past-precision is a lesson for those who
are in the security business. It demands the attentive
attention of capricious crooks (read not
so-intelligent intelligence- wallas) to study the
intricacies of the operation. Venerable vigilantes are
taught not to allow history to repeat itself.

Sadly, history was (deliberately? ) allowed to repeat
itself in Hyderabad.

Malegaon syndrome travelled to South for the very
first time.

RAW (Research Analysis Wing) proved to be really raw.
Our 'expert' interceptors (now singing Aladdin's magic
phrase ' Khul Ja SIM SIM'), did not behave like
seasoned seismologists in predicting the
unpredictable, so the doctrine of pre-emptive strikes
(elimination by encounters) was not employed this
time!

ATS (Anti-Terrorist Squad) was too busy proving in
Supreme Court that it does not stand for Acquired
Teasing Syndrome for the Muslim community!

So we were left with only R.K. Laxman's common man to
protect us!

Security agencies that have just come out of their
hibernation mode are sniffing out the same old and
'standard pattern' once again. Our always hyper
National Security Advisor (who recently panicked that
terrorists are investing heavily in the stock markets
without any substantiation) must introduce a new and
broad pattern of investigation instead of selective
intimidation.

The theorists of the old and standard pattern suggest
that whatever happens in India (Prime Minister's
sneeze included!) is the ultimate outcome of the
designs made on the other side of the border. And
designs are implemented by the educated Muslim youths
of the country. Isn't it a unique case of
remote-control governance? What more, deadly designs
direct these youths to kill their co-religionists in
mosques!

Believers are being killed by the believers. So is it
safe to assume that the devotees at Akshardam temple
were gunned down by their co-religionists? Or should
we conclude that the 7/11 train blasts were the
handiwork of Hindus? What would be the reaction of the
Hindu mass, if we extend believers versus believers
theory in the Varanasi temple blast?

Investigators who are relying heavily on SIM card
registration must know that today's hi-tech terrorists
are smart enough not to leave any thick trail of
evidence. And fabricating documents is not a big deal
these days as has been shown by many investigative
reports by various newspapers. So why would terrorists
register SIM cards in their real names? Therefore, SIM
card registration in a Muslim name may be an attempt
to disguise the investigators.

Time is ripe for India to come out of its conditioned
mentality. Investigators must break their mental
blocks. Indian law enforcement agencies suffer from
the fatal disease of prejudice. India is once again
going through the 'siege within' phase. Today's India
is reminiscent of the 1980s when it was being torn
apart by sectarian violence. ULFA and Maoists are
threatening the entire North-East. Naxalite movement
and Peoples' War Group (PWG) have become a household
name in South India. The North-West shudders at the
mention of police encounters. In the North, Kashmir
narrates an all together different story.

So, internal vigilance is more important than the
external outlook. India's lop-sided policy is obsessed
with the external element only. As M.J. Akbar wrote,
"Vigilance needs three eyes, only one of which looks
across the border. Two must look within."
