B'desh hands over Assam blasts mastermind to India: Rediff.com India News

Ranjan Daimary alias D R Nabla, the chairman of the anti-talks faction of the proscribed National Democratic Front of Bodoland and main accused in the serial blasts that rocked Assam on October 30, 2008, has been arrested.

Daimary was arrested from his Bangladesh hideout and handed over to Assam Police at the Border Security Force post at Dawki along the India-Bangladesh border in Meghalaya in the wee hours of Saturday.

According to security sources, the dreaded insurgent leader against whom Interpol had issued red-corner notice long ago, was brought to Guwahati by a team of the Assam police led by an Inspector General rank official.

The arrest will break the backbone of the NDFB's anti-talks faction that has been engaged in mass killings in Assam, triggering mindless blasts at public places.

Over 100 cases of manslaughter are pending against Daimary, who was named the prime accused and mastermind of 2008 serial blasts in Guwahati, Barpeta Road, Kokrakhar and Bongaigaon areas that left over 90 dead and over 400 injured.

Daimari's arrest could be termed as another indication of improved ties between New Delhi [ Images ] and Dhaka after Sheikh Hasina [ Images ] came to power in Bangladesh. The incumbent Bangladesh regime has been extending tremendous cooperation to India [ Images ] in evicting N-E militant leaders from that country.

At least four senior United Liberation Front of Assam leaders, including its chairman Arabinda Rajkhowa, were arrested in Bangladesh and handed over to Assam police in December last year.

The ULFA leaders are now lodged Guwahati jail.

Though there was no official confirmation forthcoming from Assam Police about the arrest of NDFB chairman Daimary, a red alert has been sounded in all the four districts of Bodoland Territorial Council (BTC) areas in Assam where the NDFB is active. Daimary's NDFB faction has been demanding sovereignty for Bodo tribe in Assam.

Assam blast accused remanded to 12 day police custody

Guwahati: Assam blast probe key accused Ranjan Daimary, who was handed over by Bangladesh Rifles to Indian authorities, was today produced before a Kamrup court which remanded him to 12-day police custody.

Daimary, chief of the National Democratic Front of Bodoland (NDFB), was arrested by the Bangladesh Rifles and handed over to Indian authorities yesterday.

He was brought to the court in a five-vehicle convoy amid tight security.

Kamrup Chief Judicial Magistrate Robin Phukan gave the order after a short hearing.

Daimary was not represented by any lawyer as the Lawyers Association of Assam has decided not to defend him due to his alleged involvement in the October 30, 2008 serial bomb blasts which claimed 92 lives including several advocates.

Nine serial explosions had rocked Assam - three each in Guwahati and Kokrajhar, two in Barpeta Road, and one in Bongaigaon. The blasts had left a trail of death and destruction and over 800 wounded.

Of this, three blasts were in Guwahati, including one inside the CJM's court premises, claiming 60 lives and leaving over 200 injured.

Daimary, a post graduate in political science, is suspected to have masterminded the blasts.

Formed in 1986, NDFB has been spearheading the demand for a separate homeland for the Bodo tribes people in Assam.

Interpol has been on the look out for the 5ft 7 inches tall Daimary against whom there are Red Corner notices have been issued.

Meanwhile, at least 10 people were injured when police allegedly lathicharged stone-pelting supporters of Daimary who wanted to get inside the court.

The supporters, who had come from Baksa, Udalguri and Kokrajhar areas, tried to break through barricades set up in a one-km radius of the court to prevent their entry, police said.

Daimary's sister Anjali Daimary, chief of the Bodo Womens' Forum, alleged that she was roughed up by police when she came to the court.

"We have not been given any information by the police about the presence of Daimary in Assam. We are just following the TV news and newspapers. Members of my family and I along with Bodo people had come to meet him," she said.

Daimary was brought to the CJM court from Special Branch Headquarters amidst tight security. He was not allowed to speak to the waiting media.

All Assam Lawyers' Association's Sailen Das said the decision to not defend any accused in the blasts case was taken by the Guwahati Lawyers' Association and was later endorsed by the AALA, which comprises lawyers of all the 37 bar associations of the state.

"The Association will stick to its decision of not appearing on Daimary's behalf and a review meeting in this regard is scheduled to be held tomorrow where the issue will be further discussed." he said.

The CBI had chargesheeted Daimary as the prime accused in October 30 serial blasts, including the one at the CJM Court which had claimed the lives of three lawyers and seven court employees.
