'Sena creating feat psychosis'

Sena MLA from Parbhani Rahul Patil creates controversy in assembly, asks state govt to probe the mystery of missing youths; AIMIM rubbishes his claim.Shiv Sena MLA from Parbhani Rahul Patil raked up a controversy when he alleged that the 100 youths who had gone missing from Marathwada recently were in touch with Daesh . Dr Patil suggested the state government set up a special police team to probe the matter.Raising the issue during zero hour through point of propriety in the Maharashtra assembly on Friday, Patil said, "If the state government fails to act in time, these youth would pose grave threat to communal harmony in society."However, Patil did not substantiate his startling claim of the missing youth. The MLA also demanded derecognising the All India Majlis-e-Ittehadul-Muslimeen (AIMIM), calling it an anti-national party that supported such radicalised youth.Patil was referring to the arrest of Naser Bin Yafai Chaus, a 31-year-old civil contractor from Parbhani, by Maharashtra Anti Terrorism Squad for being in active touch with Daesh.Chaus was kept under surveillance by the ATS for almost a year. During this period he was found to keep in touch with his handler Faroque in Syria through various chat rooms on social media.The interrogation of Chaus revealed that Daesh was giving online training to its Indian recruits in making of bombs.Reacting sharply to Patil's allegations, AIMIM's legislator from Mumbai Waris Pathan said, "Sena is making wild allegations to create fear psychosis among majority community ahead of next year's BMC elections for its vote bank politics. AIMIM has merely offered legal aid to youth who have been arrested in false cases by investigating agencies."Marathwada which was ruled by the Nizam of Hyderabad before independence has a significant minority community population and security agencies have always suspected that the region provides fertile ground for recruitment to organisations with extremist ideology.The prize catch of Indian investigating agencies Abu Jundal who orchestrated 26/11 attack from seating control room in Karachi is also from Beed in Marathwada district.
