ImageIncoming calls from Pakistan, Dubai and Gujarat. Gujarat? Yes: from Godhra, Dahod, Kalol, Sabarkantha, Banaskantha, Himmat Nagar, Surat, Ahmedabad and Vadodara.

Ninety per cent of the calls from Gujarat are made by Muslims! This particular number belongs to the son of one of the accused in the Godhra case. Another one belongs to one young woman, whose mother was very active in the camp and has to be an accused. The first call was received at midnight and the second at 2 am. Three days ago another call came from the US at 5 am. It was a Muslim calling. Last week there was an outgoing call to Karachi at 11 pm. Today there were three calls to Kashmir.

We have been constantly watching the e-mails, often intercepting them. This particular call has come from a Muslim organisation from the US. It is demanding the prosecution of Narendra Modi. Another one is making fun of Advani and Vajpayee. The third is abusing the Viswa Hindu Parishad and Togadia. The fourth one is a charter of demands on Gujarat. Asking for the repeal of POTA.

On the bookshelf, there are more than 200 books in Urdu, piles of handwritten papers in Urdu. Even the computer has Urdu font. This folder looks like a book of Urdu poems. There must be some secret behind that; an assassination plot written in verse. There are books in Gujarati. Textbooks from Gujarat! Hitler’s name is underlined in this book. Didn’t the e-mail say Modi is like Hitler? Do you see the connection? There is a folder full of articles on the Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh. Emails from Afghanistan, too.

And what is this? Hundreds of tapes and CDs! There is footage of Gujarat riots. There are hundreds of photographs, including the photographs of S-6, Sabarmati, taken from every angle. What is this footage? Mass graves? How could anyone get this? Who could have shot them? There was hardly anyone from outside at that point. It has to be an ISI conspiracy to malign Narendra Modi!

My dear friend, remember I called you two days ago and I said I have information that before the so-called ‘encounter’ on June 15, the ‘terrorists’ were interrogated in the crime cell of the Police Commissioner’s office in Surat. You gave me a long list of police proof of their having links with some terrorist organisations. I request you friend, please kill me. I am a terrorist, too. Please organise an encounter. It will take you five minutes to prove that I was a terrorist. I will fit into the latest design: an educated woman, middle class, mother of two and a scientist’s wife, having connections with terrorists!

It sells well, doesn’t it? Please go ahead. Here is the proof. I am making your life easier. You won’t have to ask your local reporter to go to the local police for information. Also you will have one less person pointing out to you that your reporting is biased.

Yes, my mobile works 24 hours. Yes, I talk to Muslims from every corner of the world, including Pakistan, Dubai and Gujarat. Yes, the families of the so-called accused, who are arrested under POTA in Godhra, call me. They call me at 5 am and they call me at 2 am. I receive calls from different parts of Gujarat, from all corners of the world throughout the night.

My house is full of Urdu books, I have loads of Gujarat footage. I abuse Modi, Advani and Vajpayee in my mails. I accuse Modi of genocide. I talk to people to try him for that. I carry thousands of papers with me about the Godhra case. I have maps of every corner of not only Gujarat but other states, too. My visiting cards, e-mail ID and mobile number are with hundreds of people in Gujarat.

I even went to Pakistan a few months ago. I have friends in Dubai. Some of my articles were even picked up by Pakistani papers like Jang. I leave home early, sometimes even at 4 am and return at all odd hours. For days I come back well past midnight. I went to Nizamuddin Basti. Isn’t it a basti full of maulavis? The place from where I buy kababs has to be a joint for exchanging notes.

I, like all modern terrorists on a mission, always carry my identification card, so that the police can recover it after shooting me. Just give me time to buy a new pair of shoes. Mine are worn out. What more proof do you need to call me a terrorist? Come, shoot me. I will make a good story.
