| NELLORE, INDIA: Seventeen-year-old Shakeer Ahmed was arrested on the charge of possessing secret documents and maps related to civil works pertaining to the Satish Dhawan Space Centre at Sriharikota on Wednesday night. Central Industrial Security Force (CISF) personnel found Ahmed, a contract labour, carrying secret documents and maps, while he was coming out of SHAR. They immediately took him into custody and informed the senior officers and the district police. Senior officials of the CISF, Superintendent of Police N. Suryanarayana and other police officers interrogated Ahmed till Thursday midnight to ascertain whether he had any links with Pakistan's Inter Services Intelligence. He claimed that he found the documents while on his way out. "The police have registered a case under relevant sections against Ahmed and interrogation is going on," Mr. Suryanarayana told The Hindu on Friday. The police could divulge full details only after the probe. Ahmed, a primary school drop-out, hails from Brahmadevam village of Muthukur mandal. His father died two months ago. The family members of Ahmed claimed that he had no links with any anti-national outfit. "Since we hail from the minority community, everybody suspects that my son has links with the ISI, but he is absolutely innocent," said his mother Saheena. "If it is proved that my son has links with the ISI, all our family members will commit suicide," she said. |

| #10 Central Industrial Security Force Jeeez, that sounds like a union busting gang from Loon Lake. CISF has 95 000 men. They guard ports, airports, VIPs, public sector companies. Their commando units protect the Indian nuclear weapon facilities. |

| #7 Just speculating here but it would not be surprising if the authorities turn up ISI links with the local mosque. Who encouraged this kid to do this? The local imam? He seems just the sort of vulnerable individual that the islamists target. |

| #6 Unlike Sandy Berger, poor Ahmed may experience the tradition known as the Indian Police beating. |

| #4 Ahmed, a primary school drop-out These kaffir hindoos must be to blame for him dropping out of elementary school. Why did they not teach the koranic recital there.? If only the school was a madrassa, Ahmaed would still be there. What good is this science and mathematics? The koran says nothing about rockets.  |

| #3 he is absolutely innocent, Of course.. your son is innocent. He is just being persecuted for being a muslim.. Allah has decreed that he may leave the space complex with blueprints and maps. The kaffir police just don't understand. |
