Lashkar-e-Toiba, Taliban mentioned; cops suspect local sympathisers
MANGALURU:
Elements inimical to the unity and integrity of India are up to their nefarious tactics again, this time bringing in the names of Pakistan and Afghanistan-based Islamist terror groups.
A case has been registered at the Kadri police station here after some suspected pro-Islamist elements scribbled the names of the Taliban and the Lashkar-e-Toiba on the compound wall of a private apartment on Circuit House Road in Mangaluru city.

‘Do not force us’ threat
The graffiti reads: “Do not force us to unite…Lashkar-e-Toiba and Taliban…to deal with Sanghis and Manuvadis…#Lashkar Zindabad.”
According to a police official, the incendiary graffiti mentioning these banned Islamist groups could be the handiwork of local provocateurs.
Cops check CCTVs
The Kadri police visited the spot and arranged for the removal of the graffiti. The police are also checking CCTV cameras in the vicinity for clues to the identity of the accused.
