Mumbai A constable, who was in the hijacked Mumbai police vehicle,
survived the Wednesday night mayhem to recount the horror of how ATS
chief Hemant Karkare and two other top officers of Mumbai police were
gunned down inside the Toyota Qualis by a terrorist duo fleeing from
CST.

Injured Constable Arun Jadhav was in the vehicle whose tyre burst when
the desperadoes had commandeered it in their attempt to flee from
police chase.

The ness story in Expressindia is dated Nov 29, 2008. Antulay, Arundhati Roy et al. have deliberately and maliciously ignored it.
Also noteworthy are the facts:

that "The top officers were on way to Cama Hospital [...] to check on another injured officer Sadanand Date.", which clearly indicates that the three officers were on their way at that time not to fight any terrorist, but to visit an injured fellow-officer in the hospital. They encountered the terrorist assassins accidentally;

that the three "were all travelling in the same vehicle", which appears to be against laid down guidelines or rules.
and
that one of the officers was driving the vehicle. Why? Was there no designated driver available?

Moreover, it appears that a bullet-proof vehicle had been procured about a month earlier, but it was never deployed in action. Why?

I am not playing down the fact that the three officers died fighting terrorists, but the points made above need to be pondered on for reducing the possibility of such tragedies in future.

Please read an Open letter that is giving Congress sleepless nights. It is a letter to Manmoron Singh by an IAS officer criticizing him and it has started a feud between government and the Media/BJP.

Kaangress is shamelessly highlighting the 'doubt' angle of karkare's death.
BJP should come out with its own conspiracy theory lin king kaangress with karkare's death.
Its more probable and digestable, as kaangress is in power in maharashtra and they can give orders to police walas and the reason was to do away with karkare who knew 'too much' about the non-existant Hindu terrorism.

Accordingly to Antulay's logic, we should also investigate why 60 lac Jews went to a place where Hitler was? Who misled them? Also, what were Nagasaki and Hiroshima doing in the path of a plane from which the atom b0mb fell down?
