Bhatkal sends cops into tizzy

Throws letter out of the court, expresses fear of threat to his life

Hyderabad: Dreaded Indian Mujahideen terrorist and main accused behind Dilsukhnagar twin blasts Yasin Bhatkal created sensation by throwing a letter on the Ranga Reddy court premises on Monday morning, much to the embarrassment of the police personnel present there. However, the police seized the paper immediately.

According to sources, in the letter, Bhaktal stated that he feared threat to his life and the police and the Intelligence Bureau were fabricating news that he was planning to flee to Damascus with help of his ISIS friends. After returning from the court hall, Bhatkal took a paper from his pocket and threw it out of the window taking the 80-odd police personnel by surprise. In the paper, it was written that the news of his alleged plans to escape was created by the police and Intelligence Bureau to encounter him.

The police are investigating the incident in various angles. They are analysing why the undertrial threw the letter from the window of the court premises and for whom. They are also contemplating the dreaded terrorist’s plan to escape from police custody. The police are also racking their brains over whether the accused wrote the letter in the jail or while traveling in the escort vehicle. Bhaktal is being taken to Rajasthan on PT warrant.

It may be mentioned here that Bhatkal was brought from Cherlapally Central Jail amidst tight bandobust and was produced before the court on Monday morning. Meanwhile, Yasin Bhaktal’s mother Rihana Siddiba expressed fears that the policemen might kill her son in a fake encounter.

Rihana said Bhaktal never said he would come out of the jail with the help of his Damascus friends during his conversations. She said her son expressed fears that he might be killed by the police in a fake encounter. Expressing threat to his son’s life from the policemen, Rihana asked how anyone could escape from the high-security jail.
