“Based on that tip-off, during our combing, we stopped one Mohammad Irfan Fakir, 20, during the wee hours when he was walking towards his home in Narol area. We found 49 hand made crude bombs from his bag.” Nonetheless, “police officials said that the bombs were not meant to disrupt the Rathyatra, which passes from several sensitive areas of the city.” Yes, they were probably meant for interfaith outreach.
“One held with 49 crude bombs ahead of Rathyatra,” PTI, June 3, 2015 (thanks to The Religion of Peace):
Ahmedabad: A person was arrested with 49 crude bombs during a late night combing operation on the city outskirts ahead of the Rathyatra scheduled to be held on July 18, police said today.
However, police officials said that the bombs were not meant to disrupt the Rathyatra, which passes from several sensitive areas of the city.
According to Deputy Commissioner of Police (DCP)-Crime Dipan Bhadran, his officials received a tip off that a person carrying live crude bombs will pass from Narol area late last night.
“Based on that tip-off, during our combing, we stopped one Mohammad Irfan Fakir, 20, during the wee hours when he was walking towards his home in Narol area. We found 49 hand made crude bombs from his bag,” Bhadran told reporters here today.
After finding bombs, crime branch called Bomb Disposal Squad (BDS) as well as forensic experts at the spot.
“After BDS diffused these bombs, forensic experts conducted primary investigation and found that these bombs were made of metal pieces, nails, jute strings and gun powder. We have handed over the material to the forensic experts for further probe,” said Bhadran.
When asked about the origin of these bombs, Fakir told officials that he received these bombs from one Altaf, a resident of Uttar Pradesh.
“Altaf is still out of our clutches. As of now, Fakir only confessed that he was asked by Altaf to keep these bombs. We will find out more about the purpose behind making these bombs only after we nab Altaf. Our investigation revealed that these bombs were not meant to disrupt peace during Rathyatra,” added Bhadran….

It’s a brand new way to drive nails. These guys must be in the building trade and realize just how dangerous hammers are. What disruption could they possibly cause?

If iSSlam would be normal religion, this lowlife would bring shame to their prophet’s name.
Angemon says
Ah, well, if he says so that must be it. Why would he lie about it, right? The police should assume that his alleged accomplice’s full name is Keyser ‘Altaf’ Söze and dedicate some resources on that line of investigation.
Vinay says
A high security is a must at every crowded popular event . A lesson to be learnt from Boston Marathon Bombing.
India does not have luxury of CCTV. Intelligence need to be more alert in prevention of terror attack and if it happens to nab perpetrator immediately.
With 16% Muslims from 1.2 billion populations, numbers on sleeping cell may be huge.
vlparker says
During their combing? Horror of horrors!!! It sounds like they may have profiled. OMG, how racist.
mortimer says
Good work, detectives! Some nice worshippers will survive the festival.
Only Islam sends out killers to murder people worshipping in their own way.
Arjuna Krishna-Das says
Thank Krishna this plot was stopped. There couldn’t be a greater contrast between Muslims’ festivals of throwing stones and slaughtering animals than the great festival of the chariots, which now takes place in cities throughout the world and involves thousands of people.
Rathayatra celebrates a pastime wherin the gopis, Krishna’s childhood girlfriends, went to see Krishna as he camped as a king. They experienced and exhibited ecstatic love at seeing Krishna, but were also feeling profound feelings of seperation from their Lord because He was no longer a cowherd boy but a King. The gopis pulled Krishna, his brother Balarama and sister Subhadra on carts back to the gopi camp, and this is reproduced and celebrated by Hindus and devotees of Krishna throughout the world. Devotees dance and sing: Hare Krishna Hare Krishna, Krishna Krishna Hare Hare, Hare Rama Hare Rama, Rama Rama Hare Hare.
Krishna went on of course to counsel his friend and then devotee Arjuna before the great battle of Kuruksetra. Arjuna was unwilling to fight the evil Kuru clan just to win a kingdom for himself. Krishna replied:
[BG 2:2] My dear Arjuna, how have these impurities come upon you? They are not at all befitting a man who knows the value of life. They lead not to higher planets but to infamy.
… then went on to speak about working in dharma (right action) and God consciousness, caring not for the fruits of one’s labour but simply to act without attachment.
There must surely come a point soon (and we are seeing the beginnings with non-PC Egypt and Oz) where governments begin to define OUR basic moral values, as laid out in Christ’s interpretation of the 0 commandments and instructions to love the Lord and thy neigbour, and also define the enemy: Political Islam and Sharia.
Arjuna Krishna-Das says
Oops, I mean millions of people and 10 commandments.
Phil says
Oh Arjuna,I hope you are right! To paraphrase your namesake :”Be Thou a Light to me unto the Path of my duty…”
Truth Seeker says
The interpretations by some persons, Bombs are not of Danger is Shameful. Everyone knows Bombs are not meant for the Welfare of People.
FLOARE says
Well…. what else needs to happen before our nation bans ISLAM?
Seriously? What big of a CRIME does it need to happen so we REALLY SEE ISLAM FOR WHAT IT IS? Will we still blame the terrorists and the “radicals” when the prophet of Islam has done EXACTLY what ISIS is doing? How more ignorant can Muslims be for REJECTING facts and history, so that they can hold on to their diabolic indoctrination? SERIOUSLY, I got ZERO respect for a cult that teaches to KILL EVERYONE WHO DOESN’T AGREE with you, and to CONVERT by FORCE. That “cult” must be BANNED and stop to exist. There is no “racist” in it, ISLAM IS NOT A RACE, is a death cult. There is no “discrimination” in it. There is HUMAN RIGHTS VIOLATION.

It’s impossible for anyone with a brain, and a moral compass, to study the life and character of mohammed, and feel anything but revulsion and horror.
I always though Annie Besant, and theosophy, was idiotic. Her silly and immoral quote just confirms my opinion.
Raju G. C. Thomas says
All the main religions practiced today were imagined, inspired, invented, promulgated, perched and practiced centuries before the advent and learning of modern science, technology and engineering. They were all created and spread in the age of ignorance and before the prevalence modern general knowledge.Today the best religion is Atheism. We will never know whether a god or different gods exist or not. Good and evil are not rewarded or punished. Therefore, commit crimes if preferred. When we humans die, we turn into nothing like all other animals, birds and fish. That’s life and death. Unfortunately!

“Today the best religion is Atheism”.
religion has to have a god, whereas atheism opposes the god. so Atheism is an idelogy rather than a religion.
regardless, you are right!
no god no problems
Mirren10 says
“Therefore commit crimes if preferred”
What a witless remark.
Crimes may not be punished by God, or gods, but they are certainly punished in society.
Irrespective of a belief in God, all societies and cultures contain elements of the Tao, natural law, and the Golden Rule. All that is, with the exception of *islam*
ermom says
This is why I say that Islamists (those who want a global caliphate and sharia, have declared WWIII on infidels (anyone NOT them) globally. Hmmmm, and we’ve got the ‘globalists’, (see the current House vote on the TPA and TPP) who want a New World Order, with open borders and a small elite, made up of them, ruling everyone. I’ll bet they didn’t think about Islamists!
If this scenario wasn’t so serious, for America and those of us who just want to live our lives, bring up our children, and be LEFT ALONE by gov’t, under our Constitution and Bill of Rights, with their limited gov’t, it would be hilarious.

India: Muslims found with 49 bombs ahead of Hindu festival
Nonetheless, “police officials said that the bombs were not meant to disrupt the Rathyatra, which passes from several sensitive areas of the city.”
……………………………..
Uh—really? This sounds more like “nothing to see here, folks—move along”.
It’s hard to imagine that these pious Muslims had a peaceful use for *49 bombs*.
jon says
as peaceful as is the “religion of islam”
Raju G. C. Thomas says
In India, nobody of any religion has a right to carry bombs before, during or after any religious festival. The Muslims with 49 bombs did something irrational, immoral, irresponsible and illegal. Their behavior was both Hindu antagonistic and Muslim self-destructive. Guns and bombs are not allowed to be possessed or carried by civilians in India according to Indian laws. The situation in India is unlike that in the United States. To possess and carry guns and bombs in India is meaningless, pointless, criminal and worthless. During my entire life in India,10 years at the Bombay Scottish School and 6 years at St. Xavier’s College, I did not see a gun or a bomb on a policeman, except a few police “Inspectors” (Commanders) during violent civilian riots.

Had Gandhi been alive today, he certainly would be proud of his 300 million vermin moslems
Raju G. C. Thomas says
Gandhi and Nehru established the roots and structure of a democratic, secular and nonaligned India. India remains that way today, thanks to Gandhi and Nehru. Hindus, Muslims, Christians, Buddhists, Zorastrians and Jews have co-existed in India ever since. So have over 30 main language groups. Harijans, the former “Untouchables”, are random free and politically powerful. They are Touchable today.
