Bangalore Police has sent a 520-page report containing key details about Kafeel Ahmed and his brother Dr Sabeel Ahmed, who were allegedly involved in the foiled Glasgow bombings, to United Kingdom.
The report contains information relating to the financial transaction made by the brothers and also speaks about their investments. In all, the 520-page report contains 45 important documents mostly relating to financial transactions made by the two brothers.
The two brothers, who are originally residents of Bangalore, were allegedly linked to the failed UK terror plot. While Kafeel succumbed to burn injuries in UK, Sabeel was convicted for withholding information, but later released on the ground that he had already served out the sentence under trial.
The report, which was prepared by the Corps of Detectives in Bangalore, speaks both about the behavourial pattern and financial transactions of both the brothers. With regard to Kafeel's behavior, the report states that it was suspect.
Although it does not name any illegal activities undertaken by him in Bangalore, the report mentions that he remained aloof and never mingled too much with friends of relatives.
It is also said that Kafeel was a sympathizer of certain factions and had also addressed a large gathering of people on his anti-American views. A note in Urdu was prepared to this effect. The CoD has translated this note and sent a copy to the UK government through the Interpol.
The CoD has taken the statements of the parents of Kafeel Ahmed. But the brother Sabeel Ahmed who landed in India recently refused to speak to the CoD. He said that he would have to hire a lawyer first and only then would he speak.
Although the Bangalore police do not require Dr Sabeel Ahmed in any case, they would continue to keep a watch on him. A senior police officer told rediff.com that the general tendency is to keep a watch on such people and their movements.
Coming to the financial transactions, the report speaks of a Rs 78 lakh investment being made in a building which houses certain offices relating to Information Technology. Later the share of the two brothers was sold and they invested in an apartment at Koramangala, the report adds.
