IN A complaint filed in a city court, a few trustees of the National
Spiritual Assembly of Bahais of India have been accused of espionage by
their colleagues. Apparently, they were supplying classified documents
from India's defence establishments to Israeli and Iranian spying
agencies and making huge amounts in foreign currency.
Taking cognisance of the complaint, the additional chief metropolitan
magistrate, Kamini Lau, has directed the Economic Offence Wing Cell to
immediately register a case against the accused persons. The court has
also asked the cell to file a status report with it by August 10.
As per the allegations in the complaint, one of the accused, N.K.
Bhudhiraja, general manager of finance with the spiritual organisation,
forged an identity card and af fixed his photograph on an armed forces
concessions form for fee baggage allowance, which is needed for
military officials travelling to places in India and abroad.
Apparently, he also used to travel under the fictitious name of
'Captain S. Budhiraja' of the air force station at Yelahanka.
Apparently, the accused, by using such impersonations and forgery
managed to clandestinely penetrate into the prohibited defence
establishment of the country and get hold of classified documents. In
turn, he supplied the sensitive documents to spying agencies in Israel
and Iran in return of foreign currency.
The complaint has also alleged that the stamp of the air force station
at Yelahanka had been forged with some amount of accuracy and was being
used by the accused trustees of the 'spiritual assembly'.
The complaint also alleges that another accused, Payam Shoghi, also a
trustee with the society, is in truth an Iranian national. He
fraudulently got his name inserted in the ration card of another
accused and also got it attested.
On the basis of the ration card he managed to procure an Indian
passport. The complaint also states that such passports have been
issued to a number of other foreigners by the accused people through a
similar fashion of forgery.
The counsel of three complainants Swadesh Kumar, Khub Singh and Gulshan
Kumar told the court that they have definitive documentary evidence to
prove that the accused were, in addition to the other violations,
involved in a large scale Hawala transaction network.
