India Police Say They Hold 9 From Hindu Terrorist Cell

Source: New York Times

NEW DELHI — For the first time in this Hindu-majority nation of 1.1 billion people, the police have announced the arrest of people who are accused of being part of a Hindu terrorist cell.

Police officials in western Maharashtra State said they had arrested the nine suspects and charged them with murder and conspiracy in connection with the bombing in September of a Muslim-majority area in Malegaon, a small city. Six people, all Muslims, died in the explosion, which was among a string of terrorist attacks in Indian cities in recent months.

Blame for several of these attacks has been placed on radical Islamist groups; one group, calling itself Indian Mujahedeen, claimed responsibility for several attacks. But the arrests of the Hindu suspects in the Malegaon bombing raised the possibility of another source of terrorism, involving a radical Hindu fringe.

“This is a very dangerous trend,” said Ajit Doval, former chief of India’s Intelligence Bureau, who added that it could undercut efforts to bolster pluralism in India.

WTF?

How can a Hindu harm anything?

There is a group called Bajrang Dal, that has been involved in anti-muslim riots ...

There is a Political party that every moderate in India is afraid of ( they have a Hitler like leader called Bal Thackeray)

And worst of them all is a giant asshole called Modi who was the chief minister for a state ( equivalent of a Governor here in the United States)

I know all extremist just use religion as an excuse, it is just a hard concept to see Hindu being used that way.

they think nothing of doing things like burning people to death for being different religion .

Come to grips with the notion. It's not a new one.

and anti gay zealots who incite hatred on talk radios day and night.

But that is what they are. Every bit as dangerous as the Taliban.

I don't know if the Hindu group targets hotels and westerners but some new "mujahedeen" group may be claiming responsibility .

Some islamic jihad websites hint the mission was to free Kashmir from India


wtf is the reason the douche bags want to destroy such a nice building ?
