Mamata wants govt that is soft on terrorism: Nadda CBI recovers arms and ammunition

-

 


CBI officials claimed that most of the weapons found in the raid at Sandesh Khali on Friday were for use by the armed forces and said they would investigate whether Shahjahan Sheikh's neighbors got them.

A CBI official said that at least one police officer's gun was among the seized weapons. Investigators said they found a purchase order in the name of Shah Jahan from an arms and ammunition dealer. They said it was unclear whether the ammunition, which was not publicly accessible, was purchased from a dealer or an illegal source.

Some ammunition that could be purchased for personal use was also part of the consignment, CBI officials said.

“We will verify the bills with the dealer,” said an officer.

The central agency on Friday recovered a cache of arms and ammunition allegedly hidden under the floor of the house of Abu Taleb Sheikh, said to be an aide to suspended Trinamool Congress leader Shahjahan.

CBI officers clarified that there was no criminality in possession of licenced arms or ammunition. “But possession of unauthorised cartridges and even misuse of authorised arms and cartridges is illegal,” an officer said.

The seized arms included 9mm calibre cartridges and 9mm bullets. According to arms experts, the use of 9mm bullets and cartridges is restricted to uniformed forces and they are not commercially available.

The seizure also included 50 pieces of 0.45 caliber cartridges which are also not commercially available, CBI sources said.

Sources in Sandeshkhali said Shahjahan had a “fascination” for collecting arms and would spend “lakhs” even on a second-hand gun if it caught his fancy. CBI teams revisited Sandeshkhali on Saturday and spoke to people around Abu Taleb’s house. His wife Marjina Bibi was also questioned.

 What is the Gaza Strip? What you want to be aware of the domain at the core of the Israel-Hamas war The Gaza Strip has been the focal point of weighty siege for over seven days after Israel sent off retaliatory airstrikes for the extraordinary dread assault by Palestinian assailant bunch Hamas on Oct. 7. The territory — a limited segment of land among Israel and Egypt, close to the Mediterranean Ocean — is home to generally 2.3 million Palestinians and is portrayed as quite possibly of the most thickly populated put on The planet. The 140-square-mile district is generally the size of Philadelphia. Most of the people who live in Gaza are youthful, with practically 65% of the populace younger than 24. ' World's biggest outside jail' Beginning around 2007, Israel has forced an air, land and ocean bar on the Gaza Strip, saying the move is important to protect the country from Hamas' assaults. Gaza is encircled by substantial walls and security barriers. Palestinians are di...

  Hamas is a paramilitary group that has been designated as a terrorist organization by the United States, the European Union, and Israel. The group has been responsible for numerous attacks on Israeli civilians, including children and women. #BarbericHamas #BrutalityagainstIsraeliwWomenChildren #IndiawithIsrael #TerroristHamas  In one particularly barbaric act, Hamas militants attacked a school bus in southern Israel in 2004, killing five Israeli children and wounding several others.

Hamas has also been responsible for the deaths of numerous Israeli soldiers. In 2014, Hamas militants killed two Israeli soldiers in a cross-border tunnel. In another attack, Hamas militants killed three Israeli soldiers in an ambush. Hamas's attacks on Israeli civilians are a clear violation of international law. The Fourth Geneva Convention prohibits the targeting of civi...

                                          A house damaged in an Israeli strike lies in ruin (Credits: Reuters) While Israel promised to capture Rafah during the Gaza talks, the UN warned against possible attacks. Israel says Rafah is Hamas' last stronghold in the Gaza Strip. Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has vowed to continue the long-running offensive against the southern Gaza town of Rafah, regardless of Hamas' response to calls for a new ceasefire and the return of Israeli hostages. Hopes for an end to the conflict have risen in recent days, with Egypt once again calling for the resumption of negotiations between Israel and Hamas. But so far there is little agreement between the two sides on the most important differences. Meanwhile, the International Criminal Court (ICC) has expressed concern about Israel's increasing isolation from the conflict in Gaza. Most of Gaza'...
