Kasab’s ‘long lost mother’ turns up to meet police chief
April 11th, 2009 - 12:28 am ICT by IANSMumbai, April 10 (IANS) Mumbai Police went into a tizzy last week when a woman claiming to be the mother of Pakistani terrorist Mohammed Ajmal Amir alias Kasab came to meet City Police Commissioner Hasan Gafoor.
The purported ‘mother’ of the nabbed terrorist involved in the 26/11 Mumbai terror attacks and currently in police custody, wanted to meet Gafoor at the high security police headquarters in south Mumbai.
“She spoke in Hindi with a heavy Punjabi accent and claimed to have some important matter to discuss with the police commissioner,” said an official.
When the police refused her permission to meet Gafoor without a valid reason, she demanded to meet the investigating officer.
“She even claimed that she was Kasab’s long lost mother and he had been allegedly kidnapped when he was a six month old infant,” the official said.
However, suspecting her to be mentally deranged, they coaxed her to leave the place. After the hour-long drama last week, she has not been seen again.
