For Investgative Journalists, politicians, police, underworld, and subject of reserch are an inevitable evil in today's situation


J Dey’s death was a very shocking incident. I was restless and paranoid about the appalling conditions faced by journalists while discharging their duties. I was Dey’s great fan as a crime correspondent. I always tried to be as good as he was. I used to compete with Mid-day two years back when I was working with ADC. Whenever there used to be crime story by J Dey, our editor Mobin Pandit used to point out saying look at this. If you have to be a good crime correspondent, you will have to be well resourced and researched. Often, I used to follow Dey’s stories and provide a new angle to it by adding more research and that’s how, we became better reporters. It’s sad to notice ones senior’s death like this. His reporting encouraged hundreds of journalists like me, but his death stole our confidence and faith in this government. Brother of journalism fraternity has passed away. Fraternity; unfortunately is not strong enough to attract common man’s sympathy.
Journalists, politicians, police and underworld is an inevitable evil in today's situation. The current scenario has been prevailing since last three decades. The circular talks of the founding rot in the city police; such as the orderlies of senior officials being parallel establishment. These officials have business partnership with the illegal dens like matka and boot legging. CP says that these parallel power centers sms their parallel paymasters alerting about the possible police raid. To talk of Dey's most recent endeavour into the fortress of oil-mafia; one may recall some lead stories in an English morninger in 2008 and again in 2010 stating how two suspected terrorists who had carried out a murder of an oil adulterator for the benefit of another adulterator were handed over to Indonesian embassy by Mumbai police. The duo was nabbed as their local guide panicked and informed the city cops that their satellite phone usage was worrying.

The IB and crime branch sleuths were aghast to know that after carrying out the murder operation for a city based oil-mafia don; they were doing rekey of the sea shore as their colleagues were to land from Indonesia for carrying out an attack on US embassy in Mumbai. The duo was handed over to the embassy of Indonesia. The attack did take place, what world is this we are living in where our Chief of City Police has to detail out such scenario in a warning circular to the same very people who are beneficiaries of this parallel policing. Wiki leaks have relayed a cable sent by Mumbai Consulate of USA to Washington in which we read an essay on city cops working for Dawood Ibrahim. How can some unidentified persons kill such seasoned reporter for such proximity? And still not traced? The Maharashtra government failed to protect the journalist to hunt down the murderers. Dey’s reporting on the underworld made him a respected byline, but it was his passion for wildlife that drew him to journalism. He authored two books on the operations of the mafia and was on the hit-list of several mafia dons and on numerous occasions received threatening calls.

Despite being aware about the threat to Dey’s life, Police failed to protect him. His stories about government departments and land scams created ripples in the state legislature. He recently exposed a Rs 10,000-crore oil-mafia scam. In crime reporting, the passion to get breaking news sometimes demands a very heavy price, and eminent crime reporter J Dey paid the ultimate one, raising the question whether a journalist is really free to write against anti-social elements. The attack on media persons is not new to this city. Journalists have always been targeted by the underworld, political goons and sometimes even the police. In 1997, known crime reporter Baljeet Parmar was shot at Antop Hill. The firing was believed to be carried out by the underworld gangster Chhota Rajan. Earlier, in 1982, AK Narayan a Ulhasnagar journalist working with Blitz was hacked to death by one Maruti Yadav at the behest of the underworld which was unhappy with his exposes connecting local politicians to them.
Narayan’s body was packed into two metal boxes and left at his own doorstep. Though

Yadav was nabbed, no underworld connection could be established. In June 2009, four media-persons were manhandled in Parel by men allegedly owing allegiance to the Bahujan Samaj Party. Television journalist Amit Joshi was brutally assaulted by local goons with sticks and rods while he was covering an incident in August last year. To get hard and authentic news, an investigative reporter has to build sources within the police, as well as among the anti-social element groups. The more we get into this, more the risk. We are not only watched by the police, but also the underworld. Though the risk of being shot or assaulted is an integral part of a crime reporter’s life, it is his family which has to live in the constant fear of losing him. People often advice me to get out of crime reporting and opt for another beat. A sustained campaign against the underworld has often resulted in a death threat to journalists.

The CID isn’t headed by a Commissioner, this is the elite’ wing of the State police. Their website talks of its job profile. The Commissioner of this wing issued a statement a week after Mumbai attacks that CID is not concerned with terror related intelligence. This man was awarded the post of police commissioner Mumbai and later DGP of State. Hasan Gafur; then CP of Mumbai who took to streets while his colleagues preferred to comply with vows given to their wives that they would not leave control room; was shunted out for his rave act. The architects of the miss-communication, fraudulent communication on wireless leading to the death of many police officers and men were considered to be reliable witnesses by the Pradhan commission led an Ex-MLC.

Dey’s demise has given a last alert; and if we do not wipe out the evils in seats of power now; we will not have another alert. Anyone of us can be the next target.
my tribute to J' Day..I lost one of my senior journalist

my tribute to J' Day..I lost one of my senior journalist

Investigative Journalists are soft targets


After J Dey’s death, silent moments, pain and tears and whispers are visible. 24 hours have already passed since Dey’s departure, yet the police are clueless about his death. Dey's funeral was an emotional farewell. So many questions around, so much of grief, insecurity, pain was in ambience. Shameless police and politicians marked their presence by facing media cameras but there was no hitch of regret on their face. Condolence messages kept pouring from media house to media house. There was competition in sending fax and smses to media. Finally, a journalist’s death too was encashed by these hypocrites for their own publicity. None of them is worried about the police and home department that is clueless about the crime. It was difficult to believe that their buddy left this world forever. He was shot from close distance and police are still clue less about the unknown assailants. How can this government and police department can just let go such issue? Now they think that journalists should be provided with security but what about the past? Who will compensate for J Dey’s death? A large number of media persons had turned up to pay their last respects to the senior journalist. Dey is survived by his wife Shubha Sharma and mother. Looking at his family I had experienced pain in my ribs. I started wondering that this could happen to my family too for bringing out the truth. A journalist is always a soft target.

In broad daylight city like Mumbai where we boast about better law and order, anyone can take anybody’s life and escape clueless. The Maharashtra government swung into action, ordering special police teams to probe Dey’s death. Will they be really investigating the issue? Do you thing can we ever get to know the real criminal? Despite being compared with Scotland Yard police, the Mumbai police continue to be clueless about the crime. State Home Minister R R Patil, Mumbai Police Commissioner Arup Patnaik, Joint Commissioner of Police (Crime) Himanshu Roy, Joint Commissioner of Police (Law and order) Rajnish Seth and several senior government officers should be answerable for this incidence. Our dumb Chief Minister directed Patnaik to arrest the culprits involved in Mr Dey’s murder but where can the murderer be nabbed? He also has failed to mention whom to be held responsible for this case? Always an eye wash, god knows for how long?

J Dey had been receiving death threats and police were aware about it. How come Chief Minister failed to provide police protection for Dey? The government has provided security to Dey’s family at a time when it has lost it bread winner. It very unfortunate, the Home Minister could have acted and provided security to the crime journalist before he was gunned down. Now what is the use of plan for journalists' protection? Senior NCP leader and PWD Minister Chhagan Bhujbal said that it was very important to get the culprits behind bars. It’s true Mr Bhujbal but how can we put the accused behind bars? Just by giving mere political statements to media or by exercising your powers to really nab a culprit? How can you all ministers become so shameless to come in front of camera and still talk big. The manner in which bullets were pumped into Dey’s body, no law could have helped him at that time. The relevant department will look into it. But whatever happened is sad, bad.

The police, meanwhile, are examining the CCTV footage of Crisil House, which is located opposite the scene of the crime. The footage, though, isn't very clear because it was raining heavily at the time of the journalist's murder. So now is there any other way? Or any other excuse for media? The post-mortem report of Dey shows that five bullets were pumped into his body and one bullet that hit his shoulder did not come out. He died due to the bullet injury. Five bullets were pumped into his body and there was no noise? The attack on J Dey was undoubtedly an attack on the media. The police say they can’t establish a motive. Well, Dey had been covering the underworld for years; he’d written on the diesel mafia. Two leads for you, Commissioner Arup Patnaik. But we’re not surprised. The police force is flabby, too busy with rallies and subordinates’ cell phones. It, therefore, came as no surprise at all that in recent cases like the Kurar murders, the local officers did not even want to take down a complaint. Is the Mumbai police inept, poorly led, or just plain corrupt? Difficult to say.

J Dey was killed in a centrally-connected neighbourhood, in broad daylight and within walking distance of a police station. It adds up to one conclusion: in Mumbai, no one is safe. And when a citizen’s physical security cannot be guaranteed by the State, then that State has forfeited its right to govern. Bullet riddled bodies don’t make a crime reporter cringe. When I looked at J Day’s dead body I was scared, because all these days even I was doing investigative journalism, now also i am doing my reserch on Hackers, they do defametary blogging,they abuse and some times even make calls to me and threatn.

If you want to reach the fact and fight odd, then your destiny is death. It was an association that lasted right unto his death. Those were the years when J. Dey was still trying to find his footing in journalism. Enough is enough. Things need to get back on track, and we can start with the enactment of stringent provisions against those who attack the media. Or we can be one of those banana republics where dead journalists are commonplace.

Don’t spread rumors; we are Anonymous
















Today I was really shocked to see one screen short floating over face book, mentioning some statements released by “Anonymous” that they are winding the #Op-India because of NBC and Cat. How can one release such statements? For some time if assumed one can understand about Cat, but why NBC? And the most important thing, can anyone really control over Anonymous? Wow I never knew I am so strong that I can halt a mission like #Op-India.





NBC is an independent news group which has got nothing do with any sort of activities here, just because you are exposed, you cannot drag my company in unwanted issues. I strongly support the original group of Anonymous, and always against the fakes posing as Anons and sabotaging my country.





In the recent past the news about Anonymous attack on Indian army website hit headlines, every one of this country was misguided. Overnight all hacker and common man of this country started hating this group because of rumors spread about them. Anonymous has made common cause in India with an anti-corruption movement.website of the National Informatics Center (NIC)was hacked by Anonymous but they never attacked Army and Indian Registrar. These were simply misused by Indian hackers. And these fake Indian hackers are planning to target Congress website under the cover of Anonymous’.





Operation India page on Facebook, was criticized by a number of users after the announcement that they hacked Indian army's site. Face book users were fuming with the thought that Anonymous attacked Indian Army. Why Anonymous should damage these sites to convey their message? This news was published on “The Hackers News” and then it reached everywhere, how come hacker’s news was so sure about the hack is by Anonymous?





The fact is that Anonymous never attacked defense sites. #OpIndia, started with great cause to fight against corruption, voice for common man and fight for media’s freedom. Looking at the popularity of this group and their good work, I always thought that after some time. Many small hackers groups may join them and emerge as one of the strongest hackers group on the Globe. That day each country will have unseen watch dogs over corrupt government to control their activities and raise voice for common man. But I was wrong. Group of Indian hackers in the power greed and with malicious intentions, started attacking their own country websites in the name of Anonymous. These Indian hackers hacked our Army websites, private institutions, media group, and an individual. They were randomly attacking everyone in the name of anonymous. Irony is that these Indian hackers made biggest mistake of making wrong deface page with email id. Few things which drawn the attention of Anon and #OpIndia because Indian hackers made some blunders like giving the email id anonymous_indian@hushmail.me, not only this they even changed the signature of the Anon, which was really lame .. The Anon signature is “We are Legion. We do not forget. We do not forgive. Expect US” these guys failed to make a proper statement and the language was so funny that everyone on #OpIndia was laughing on THN guys.





Unfortunately few Indian guys and the team of “The Hackers news” started conducting many activities by using the name of Anonymous. They did this for their personal profit, not for the noble cause which they ware pretending to be. In short time those Hackers fooled some innocent Indians. In short they got bad name to #OpIndia. Finally there was fake declaration about the closer of such Nobel mission.





One of my facebook friend of Anonymous group” Weare Legion’ told me that “we are anonymous, we are peaceful, anyone promoting or using violence is not anonymous and has been sent to give Anonymous a bad name in the press, our goal is freedom and peace for all, if you agree then you too are anonymous. (Indeed this was better way of living with ethics) who gave these Indian hackers freedom to attack our own country websites? Why Anonymous is quite, in spite of so much mess created in their name? Why are they not showing these hackers their place?





Today when I was discussing few things with Imnull0 (hacker of Anonymous group) and he gave me big shock by emphasizing over the facts. He told me that some bloggers and especially “The Hackers News” played dirty role in spreading all wrong messages and fake news on behalf of them without their consent. When Anon got to know the facts that THN is spreading false news including on FB, Twitter and his blog they decided to take the call.





THN was badly insulted by the Anon at IRC and he ( Mohit Kumar Vashisht) was asked to accept his mistakes and correct them by removing all the false claims and statements that he has have released in the name of Anonymous. They also made it very clear that they were never involved in the hacks carried out in India in the name of Anonymous; some of the hacks are Indian army website, NIC website, Rahul Gandhis website. Now they are at the verge of hacking Congress websites by same modus operands. These attacks are carried out by none other than the group of this so called news blogger and it’s very much possible that there can be involvement of some other hackers groups too.





Anonymous has warned them not to make any statement and carry out any attacks by the name of #OpIndia without consulting the others who are in #OpIndia, they have even told them in clear words that not to make any pages on FB or any other social networking site. Anonymous also realized that the allegations made on Cattechie, NBC and others are nothing but a false plot to divert the attention and settle their personal rivalry. Shame on THN and those supporting such groups, they are playing such dirty politics against a journalist just because she has the guts to raise her voice against injustice and trying to stop these fake people crossing their limits.





Well now my question is that, what should be done with “The hackers News”? And the hackers group working with them for hacking Indian websites? They are the traitors and threat to our country. Long back some one wrote about him stating that he is a JIHADI, that time I felt very bad, but now I am realizing the fact. These guys are terrorists working against the nation. Not only that they are shame for the hackers community as they are ruining the name of Indian Patriotic hackers.





In my capacity I will always support #OpIndia crusade against corruption, and I am sure, at any cost this campaign will never halt, they will just walk their way keeping all odds aside. They are Anonymous, the revolutionaries and legends. They have ethics and they can, and you cannot stand by Nobel cause.





If you cannot support the cause, then just stay away, but at least don’t defame them by sabotaging their mission.





you have back stabbed them; now expect the unexpected.





They are Anonymous.





They are Legion.





They do not forgive.





They do not forget.





Expect them



Don’t spread rumors; we are Anonymous

INDIAN CYBER ARMY and FALSE Claimers














































































This post is dedicated to the Editor and Reporter of Deccan Chronicle
.




Dear Madam thanks a lot for giving us good coverage in your esteemed news paper and encouraging our “Indian Cyber Army members” to stand by this country when ever cyber security challenges are biggest concern.











It was quite shocking when I came to know some Kislay Chaudhary called your office and questioned our integrity, No one can say that “Indian Cyber Army” is not belong to us, Even I also can’t declare that ICA is only mine because this title is been possessed by many people of this country.. Indian Cyber Army is the group of Hackers or individual from different parts of India, who care for Nation! I believe, anyone can use the name ICA, who is interested to work for Indian’s Cyber Space. Yeah, may be the way of working will be different but the aim is same. Here on our site everyone is openly invited to join us, either he/she is from India or any other country. We are “Indian Cyber Army”, that means we love Indians first and we are here for our country..











In the recent past there were people claiming for the name Indian Cyber Army. Actually this title is belongs to Indishell group and rest all are third party or they may possess this name but they are no one to stop others by using the same. Since so many months, Kislay Chaudhary and his group had tussle with Indian Hackers and they are none other than Indishell guys. Indian Cyber Army is a group of Hackers, Penetration Testers, developers, Security Experts, Programmers, and Cyber Geeks, cyber security experts, and even defacers. To deface and express their disagreement over certain patriotic issues they have been using this name and there is nothing wrong. For them Hacking is a weapon for Cyber War, they even believe in using Hacking skills for Security and Development. Without your knowledge they have secured many such Indian websites.














I have cyber security as business, but they are doing it without any commercial gains. They are not against any Country, Community, and Group. Indian Cyber Army is the open platform for everyone to come and join! They are against just against antinational elements. So what is wrong in it?










They are the members from different countries and Religions, groups. I think this is the best example of Team work where everyone is dedicatedly having concentration mission..They too don’t believe in cyber war and working underground. They believe in giving it back when some casualty comes to this nation as terror or threat. And I am sure they don’t need to prove us!
















The Purpose of Indian Cyber Army is to provide security to cyber space of this country and safe guard nation’s interest. Thousands of young aspiring hackers are getting trained by them; they are the huge group with utmost integrity. Real Hackers should know to deface a website or who can root venerable servers if needed. Lucky, silent poison Atul Dwivedi I am sure these guys are good at code programs, find vulnerabilities, can write exploits and can test the every possible way to hack or secure a system.











The meaning of ICA is that, a step taken by an Indian for securing the cyber world and taking stand with best of the best persons of Cyber Field. Here ICA is not mean to only a group of 10-15 members, Even in actual, Indian Cyber Army should include every that person who is interested to be the part of National Security.











Now even we also possess the trade mark of Indian cyber Army, we have magazine titled Indian cyber Army, and even society and company registrations formalities are under progress. No one can stop us using this name or no one has right to stop anyone using this name. Not even kislay Chaudhary.






If Kislay has any issues over this title, then he can go legal and fight the battle, and that he cannot do, because he has nothing to claim. more over we also posses ICA website that is www.indiancyberarmy.info Trade mark registration can be done under any class by any one, with the same name. That does not mean the one who got trade mark; possess every right over the name or banner. Mr. Kislay chaudhary stop using cheap traits and back stabbing others. If you have any issues come across the table or go to court let judiciary take call over this subject. Stop phoning, threatening, warning and accusing people over false issues.











Sorry Manu Bharat for the inconvenience caused due to misunderstandings and unwanted claims.












Regards





Vaidehi
