Mumbai, March 21 : Former Mumbai police commissioner M.N. Singh Monday appeared before a special court hearing a case against a man who allegedly planned 9/11 type attacks on Britain. Singh was summoned after Mohammad Afroz, accused of learning to fly planes to target major installations in Britain, made a plea to call in the former police officer. But Singh could not depose as the prosecution sought time. Designated Judge A.P. Bhangale of the special court adjourned the case to March 28. Afroz was arrested Dec 3, 2001 by the Mumbai police. He was alleged to be a member of Osama bin Laden's Al Qaeda. Police said he planned to target Britain's House of Commons and the Indian Parliament. They even claimed to have got evidence against him after a trip to Britain. |
