Shiv Sena funded Maoists, says suspect Naxalite

Mumbai, Aug 8 (PTI) Suspected Naxalite Arun Ferreira in his narco-analysis test has alleged that many political parties, including Shiv Sena and its chief Bal Thackeray, have been funding Maoist activities in Mumbai.
The narco-analysis report, a copy of which is available with PTI, quoted Ferreira as saying, "Bal Thackeray and his party Shiv Sena and the BJP student wing Akhil Bharatiya Vidyarthi Parishad (ABVP) had given us funds on regular occasions for Maoists activities in Mumbai." This shocking revelation came when Ferreira, a city resident, was asked about the funding of activities of the banned outfit CPI (Maoist) in the country's financial capital.

So far two narco tests have been conducted on Ferreira, who was arrested from Nagpur on May 8, 2007.

Ferriera's confession of involvement of Thackeray in Naxal activities was made in the second narco test conducted by Bangalore-based Forensic Science Laboratory (FSL) in September last year.

The narco report has been sent to the Maharashtra police for further investigation.

The report, signed by Bangalore FSL Director Malini Subramaniam, further says, "He (Ferreira) said political parties will never support Naxal organisations. However, only Bal Thackeray and his party Shiv Sena and the ABVP helped the Naxalites with funds." PTI

இதனை சிவசேனா மறுத்துள்ளது. எப்போதுமே சிவசேனா கம்யூனிஸ்டுகளுக்கு எதிரியாகவே இருந்துவந்துள்ளது என்றும் தெரிவித்துள்ளது.

No link with Naxalite activities, says Shiv Sena

Posted at Friday, 08 August 2008 18:08 IST
Mumbai, Aug 8: Refuting media reports that the party was funding Maoist activities in Mumbai, the Shiv Sena today said it never had any connection with the Naxal movement.

"Naxalism is born out of a Communist agenda and it is a well documented fact that Shiv Sena has always opposed Communists. There is no way Shiv Sena will support Naxal activities," party spokesman Sanjay Raut told reporters reacting to the report based on the narco test on suspected Naxal Arun Ferreira.

Raut, who is also a Rajya Sabha MP, said the Sena is aware that Naxalism, prevalent in parts of Maharashtra, especially in some districts of Vidarbha, has been born out of poverty, unemployment and corruption.

"We have always told the government that such issues needed to be tackled to wipe out Naxalism." Ferreira was arrested in Nagpur on May 8, 2007 for suspected Naxal links.

In the narco test, he had reportedly named Shiv Sena and ABVP as the outfits funding activities of the banned Naxal outfit CPI(Maoist) in the financial capital.
