This is the story of a Kashmiri Young Man whose career was destroyed by Delhi Police Special Cell, which falsely chargesheeted him of being a Lashkar-e-Toiba terrorist, but the case fell flat in court four years later.
The Indian Express reported how Delhi Police produced 24-year-old Imran Kirmani before waiting cameras on November 21, 2006, and called him a member of “a Lashkar-e-Toiba module” that was “planning a 9/11-type strike in Delhi”.
Kirmani had a degree in aeronautical engineering from Jaipur, had done a six-month course at Amritsar Flying Club and was working with Star Aviation Academy — nobody asked any questions.
Four years, five months and 21 days later, Additional Sessions Judge Surinder S Rathi acquitted Kirmani, ripping apart the police case. All Kirmani has left are questions. “My dream has already died, there is no future,” he says. “How will I begin again? Who will accept me in the aviation industry? Who will return me five years of my life?”
The “distortions” began with the chargesheet filed in Kirmani’s case. While before the media police alleged a 9/11-like plot, in its chargesheet, the Special Cell claimed a tip-off from a central intelligence agency that a Lashkar militant had set up base in Delhi and was funding terror through hawala, and that his brother was an Imran, a resident of Dwarka. And that Imran also collected and transferred terror funds.
