Did Rajeev Shukla meet Dawood Ibrahim when he was in Pakistan? Mumbai: Bharip Bahujan Mahasangh chief Prakash Ambedkar on Monday alleged that Union minister Rajeev Shukla had met India's 'Enemy Number One' in Pakistan on April 5, 2004, and discussed important security issues with him. Ambedkar produced a two-page document, which he claims was an internal report of the external affairs ministry, to corroborate his allegation. Though Ambedkar didn’t specify who 'Enemy Number One' mentioned in the said report was, it is well known that Indian security agencies use the phrase to refer to Dawood Ibrahim. Shukla, however, rubbished the allegations. As per the alleged confidential report,Shukla was part of the BCCI delegation that accompanied the Indian cricket team on the tour of Pakistan in 2004. The document has details of Shukla’s alleged meeting with 'Enemy Number One' in Lahore, at the farm house of Atikur Rehman, who is said to be an ISI operative and close associate of 'Enemy Number One'.Bharip Bahujan Mahasangh chief Prakash Ambedkar on Monday produced the alleged internal report of the ministry of external affairs’s 'G' Desk to corroborate his allegation, which states that Union minister Rajeev Shukla’s activities and movements were under the scanner when he travelled to Pakistan in 2004 as a BCCI delegate with the Indian cricket team, which went to play an ODI series with Pakistan at Gaddafi Stadium. The document produced by Ambedkar states, “Mr Shukla was at the stadium with the cricket team till lunch and slipped away from the stadium around 2.30 pm. He went to the farmhouse of Major Rehman, where ‘Enemy Number One’ was already present. Mr Shukla even handed some documents to ‘Enemy Number One’ and some copies of correspondence between Mr Shukla and the PMO was part of the said documents.” An Indian agent codenamed FAE-31 was also present at the meeting and he later sent a detailed report to the MEA. According to FAE-31, Shukla told 'Enemy Number One' that only four RAW officers were posted in an Indian mission to snoop on underworld dons and hawala racketeers based in Pakistan. Shukla also said that “he had written a three-page letter to the Prime Minister and made a pointed reference to RAW’s non-planned expenditure having mounted to Rs 100 crores and said that the agency presence in Pakistan is less than half of its sanctioned strength. “He also told ‘Enemy Number One’ that to curb and control RAW’s operation in Pakistan he had demanded the institution of a Cabinet committee or a high-powered panel under the Cabinet Secretary to suggest its revamp,” the document states With regard to the confidential documents, Mr Ambedkar demanded that Prime Minister Manmohan Singh clarify whether Mr Shukla was authorised to meet the Pakistani military establishment. Responding to these allegations, Shukla said the report on the basis of which the allegations are being made is fake and bogus. “It’s a five-year-old allegation and he has been repeating it over and over again. There is no basis to his allegations. The documents, which he claims to have with him, are fake and bogus. It’s nonsense,” said Shukla. http://www.deccanchronicle.com/130604/news-current-affairs/article/did-rajeev-shukla-meet-dawood-ibrahim-when-he-was-pakistan

Document from 2004? Seriously?
Well, everything resurfaces when controversies starts appearing. Nothing is old and if there is some substance behind that, it should be examined.

then let them hand it over to the police and lodge a criminal case v Shukla. But as i suspect nothing of that sort will happen, because its just some big fib. Dawood was in Dubai in 2004 wanst he?

On the MCOCA issue, certainly Indian police looks bad as it shows lack of consistency . As mentioned earlier with Sanjay Dutt. Honestly, these players cannot be put in there. And on the police actions, makes me wonder, can they get anybody and put them in jail till they complete their investigations. And given how slow the general investigations works, it might be forever and infinite time in jail The "accused" do not deserve that and a fair trial should be done. Even today, the evidence out looks weak and a case of connections and bad luck. I do still believe that there is a strong possibility that some of them might just be clean and yet got wrongly accused. ( Like Sreesanth)

On the Rajeev Shukla issue.

Bharip Bahujan Mahasangh chief Prakash Ambedkar on Monday alleged that Union minister Rajeev Shukla had met India’s “Enemy Number One” in Pakistan on April 5, 2004,
So basically at that time Atal Bihari was in power along with the BJP-NDA. India was on the cusp of general elections which happened on the 20th of April to 7th May and apparently had all this inside info despite being a congress politicians not being part of government which the congress last formed in the year 1995???

Man, you have been campaigning actively for the fixers since day 1. Sure you don't have any vested interests?

The chances that these guys are clean is low. Whether they can be proved guilty in a court is another issue. That said, they deserve better treatment till they are proven guilty in the court.

Man' date=' you have been campaigning actively for the fixers since day 1. Sure you don't have any vested interests?[/quote'] That's wrong. It's no campaign rather it's questions. There are question marks over the evidence and certainly the questions are more now than the start of this issue. There are plenty of things which has to concluded rather than assumed.

Yep, that's what I mean. This certainly got be scared by Indian police where one can rot in jail for long time without any trial. That can happen to anyone.

I agree with you. Everyone agrees to punish the culprits if they have done wrong.But what's happening here is something else.

Man' date=' you have been campaigning actively for the fixers since day 1. Sure you don't have any vested interests?[/quote'] You missed the most important word, "alleged". Of course, they can be all fixers but till then, at least a fair trial should be done.

Yes because police evidence is something which should always be shared with the media and with ICF posters else there is no evidence
