Kochi: Alleged LeT operative fears loss of notoriety
KOCHI: The crime branch team was in for a surprise when suspected LeT operative Thadiyantavide Nazeer on Wednesday pleaded before them saying that his role behind the Kizhakkambalam dacoity case should not be made public as he will lose his fans who 'worship him for being a terrorist'.
"The moment he admitted his role in the dacoity case, he began to plead that the matter should not be made public. He told us that youngsters in his community considered him their hero and if they came to know about his role in a robbery and dacoity case, it will affect his reputation as a notorious terrorist,"
a police official, who was part of the team that grilled Nazeer continuously for the last 24 hours, told TOI on condition of anonymity.
Police sources said that Nazeer was forced to reveal his role in the case after the crime branch team presented different witnesses before him, who identified Nazeer. Police officials said that the auto driver, who dropped Nazeer and the other accused at Aluva on the night they attacked a jewellery store owner, had identified Nazeer. Police claimed that LeT operative Thadiyantavide Nazeer admitted that it was he who planned and executed the operation to attack the person and loot 2.25 kg of gold from him at Kizhakkambalam on June 20, 2002.
Nazeer told the interrogation team that Sabir, who is currently holed up somewhere in Pakistan, handled the amount of Rs 12.5 lakh that they raised by selling the gold in Malappuram. "Nazeer told that it was Sabir who handled the amount and provided the money to pay rent for the houses where they stayed at Paravoor and Pookkattupady," officers said. Officials said that Nazeer will be taken to Kizhakkambalam on Thursday for evidence collection.

the sheer Audacity is mind-boggling.
