MUMBAI: The Mumbai police has sounded a high alert after the control room received calls claiming that six terrorists have sneaked into the city and may carry out a major attack at Juhu Chowpatty or Bandra Bandstand on Valentine's Day. On February 14, youngsters throng both these places. Police commissioner Satyapal Singh on Sunday night contacted all senior police inspectors in the western suburbs and asked them to carry out searches in hotels and lodges and stage nakabandis. Security agencies are not taking chances following Saturday's hanging of Parliament attack convict Afzal Guru. "The Pakistani terrorist outfit, Lashkar-e-Taiba (LeT), has given an open threat after the hanging of Pakistani terrorist Ajmal Kasab; now there is the Afzal Guru case," said a senior police official. Jamaat-ud-Dawaa and LeT chief Hafiz Saeed, accused mastermind of the 26/11 attacks, delivered threats in Pakistan and strongly protested after Guru's execution, claiming it amounted to "judicial terrorism". "The Centre has sounded an alert across the country; it will continue for some time. We are also expecting opposition from Shiv Saniks to Valentine's Day. Hence, there will be heavy police bandobast," said an IPS officer. The crime branch is trying to trace the caller who phoned the police control room and alerted them on Sunday afternoon. Sources said the man, who called a few times, identified himself as Raju from Mahu in Uttar Pradesh and said he overheard two men saying that six terrorists were likely to carry out an attack in Mumbai on Valentine's Day. Senior Mumbai police officials passed on the information to the Anti-Terrorism Squad, Bandra police and Juhu police. A high alert is on at the Mumbai airport, public and tourist places and major railway stations. Extra barricades and Central Industrial Security Force jawans have been posted outside the airport and the police have begun conducting nakabandis. Joint commissioner of police (law and order) Sadanand Date said, "We have enhanced police bandobast in the run-up to Valentine's Day.'' http://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/india/Alert-in-Mumbai-ove r-fears-of-terror-attack-on-Valentine-Day/articleshow/184562 01.cms Talent and intelligence are useless when not supplemented by mental strength!!
