  • Cricket Memorabilia Society Postal Auction Closing at Noon 10
    CRICKET MEMORABILIA SOCIETY POSTAL AUCTION CLOSING AT NOON 10th JULY 2020 Conditions of Postal Sale The CMS reserves the right to refuse items which are damaged or unsuitable, or we have doubts about authenticity. Reserves can be placed on lots but must be agreed with the CMS. They should reflect realistic values/expectations and not be the “highest price” expected. The CMS will take 7% of the price realised, the vendor 93% which will normally be paid no later than 6 weeks after the auction. The CMS will undertake to advertise the memorabilia for auction on its website no later than 3 weeks prior to the closing date of the auction. Bids will only be accepted from CMS members. Postal bids must be in writing or e-mail by the closing date and time shown above. Generally, no item will be sold below 10% of the lower estimate without reference to the vendor.. Thus, an item with a £10-15 estimate can be sold for £9, but not £8, without approval. The incremental scale for the acceptance of bids is as follows: £2 increments up to £20, then £20/22/25/28/30 up to £50, then £5 increments to £100 and £10 increments above that. So, if there are two postal bids at £25 and £30, the item will go to the higher bidder at £28. Should there be two identical bids, the first received will win. Bids submitted between increments will be accepted, thus a £52 bid will not be rounded either up or down. Items will be sent to successful postal bidders the week after the auction and will be sent by the cheapest rate commensurate with the value and size of the item.

  • Trends in Organized Crimes
    International Journal of Law and Legal Jurisprudence Studies :ISSN:2348-8212:Volume 3 Issue 4 154 TRENDS IN ORGANIZED CRIMES Manik Sethi and Smeeksha Pandey1 Abstract There is wide support for the argument and assertion that organized crime has increased in the last decade. But the problem for any discussion on organized crime is establishing the extent to which it exists and the size of the threat to democracy and security that it could represent. The myth, mystery and secrecy that surrounds organized crime and the clandestine nature with which it operates makes it hard to quantify and reach sound conclusions on. One of the most important factors is the establishing of a proper and sound working definition of organized crime in order to move away from the mythical notions that pervade the popular conscious and perhaps many security and intelligence institutions within India. Organized crime, it would seem, is extremely complex involving many different groups and people who operate in a variety of different ways and styles. Some it is equally important to establish the differences as well as the common features of organized crime. It is not possible to respond effectively to organized crime until it is fully understood. The goal of any organized criminal activity is to make huge profits that need to be laundered before the capital can be used to expand their illegal business empires. Rendering banking transparent at a business level would go some way to eradicating money laundering, ultimately impeding and inhibiting the expansion of organized crime, and arguably represents one of the key measures in its control.

  • Hunting for Dawood Ibrahim - the International Terrorism Monitor: Paper No
    HUNTING FOR DAWOOD IBRAHIM - THE INTERNATIONAL TERRORISM MONITOR: PAPER NO. 122 By B.Raman In their happiness over the conviction of some of the accused involved in the Mumbai explosions of March,1993, the Indian Police and other security agencies should not forget that the mastermind of this act of mass casualty terrorism continues to live under the protection of the Pervez Musharraf regime in Pakistan. He, Tiger Memon and others enjoying the hospitality of the Pakistani authorities have to be brought to justice. 2. It is unfortunate that the Government of India headed by Prime Minister Manmohan Singh has not been articulating openly and vigorously the perfidy of the Musharraf regime in giving sanctuary and protection to Dawood Ibrahim, Tiger Memon and eighteen others wanted for trial in India on charges of their involvement in acts of terrorism such as killing hundreds of innocent civilians through improvised explosive devices (IEDs), hijacking of aircraft etc. 3. Dawood Ibrahim has also to be interrogated by independent investigators outside Pakistan on his links with A.Q.Khan, Pakistan's nuclear scientist, and his role in the financing of Pakistan's clandestine procurement of military nuclear material abroad and their transport to Pakistan and in setting up a factory in Malaysia through a Sri Lankan Muslim of Indian origin ( Bukhary Seyed Abu Tahir) for the manufacture of centrifuges required for uranium enrichment. 4. By giving protection to Dawood Ibrahim in Pakistani territory, Musharraf has become what is known in law as an accomplice after the fact in the trial relating to the Mumbai explosions of March,1993.

  • D-Company and the 1993 Mumbai Bombings: Rethinking a Case of ‘Crime-Terror Convergence’ in South Asia
    Mahadevan – D-company & 1993 Mumbai Bombings 54 The European Review of Organised Crime Original article D-Company and the 1993 Mumbai Bombings: rethinking a case of ‘crime-terror convergence’ in South Asia Prem Mahadevan* Abstract: In 1993, a transnational crime organization known as D-Company carried out mass-casualty terrorist bombings in Mumbai, India. The reasons for this action have been attributed to religious grievances. However, little attention has been given to the role played by Pakistan’s Inter Services Intelligence in supporting the bombings. Taking into account what has emerged in the public domain over the last 28 years regarding ISI links with D-Company and with international jihadist groups more generally, a re-assessment of the 1993 bombings is required. Hitherto regarded as an example of ‘crime-terror convergence’, it appears that D-Company might be more aptly considered an instrument of covert action. Keywords: Terrorism, heroin, gold, intelligence, covert operations. * Prem Mahadevan is Senior Analyst, Global Initiative Against Transnational Organized Crime.

For permissions please email: [email protected] 54 Mahadevan – D-company & 1993 Mumbai Bombings 55 Introduction This article examines why the transnational crime syndicate known as ‘D-Company’ bombed the city of Mumbai in 1993. In what remains the bloodiest-ever terror incident on Indian soil, 257 civilians were killed by 12 near-synchronous explosions. The bombs had been assembled using military-grade explosive smuggled from abroad. The events of that day, Friday 12 March 1993, are considered by scholars as an example of hybridity between organized crime and political terrorism (Rollins, Wyler and Rosen, 2010: 14-16).

  • Koel Chatterjee Phd Thesis
    Bollywood Shakespeares from Gulzar to Bhardwaj: Adapting, Assimilating and Culturalizing the Bard Koel Chatterjee PhD Thesis 10 October, 2017 I, Koel Chatterjee, hereby declare that this thesis and the work presented in it is entirely my own. Where I have consulted the work of others, this is always clearly stated. Signed: Date: 10th October, 2017 Acknowledgements This thesis would not have been possible without the patience and guidance of my supervisor Dr Deana Rankin. Without her ability to keep me focused despite my never-ending projects and her continuous support during my many illnesses throughout these last five years, this thesis would still be a work in progress. I would also like to thank Dr. Ewan Fernie who inspired me to work on Shakespeare and Bollywood during my MA at Royal Holloway and Dr. Christie Carson who encouraged me to pursue a PhD after six years of being away from academia, as well as Poonam Trivedi, whose work on Filmi Shakespeares inspired my research. I thank Dr. Varsha Panjwani for mentoring me through the last three years, for the words of encouragement and support every time I doubted myself, and for the stimulating discussions that helped shape this thesis. Last but not the least, I thank my family: my grandfather Dr Somesh Chandra Bhattacharya, who made it possible for me to follow my dreams; my mother Manasi Chatterjee, who taught me to work harder when the going got tough; my sister, Payel Chatterjee, for forcing me to watch countless terrible Bollywood films; and my father, Bidyut Behari Chatterjee, whose impromptu recitations of Shakespeare to underline a thought or an emotion have led me inevitably to becoming a Shakespeare scholar.

Dear Sir, Thanks for taking time to meet with us. We would like to also thank Consul General of India at San Francisco, Mr. B. S. Prakash for arranging this meeting. As the Indian legal system considers all complaints filed by a wife as genuine by default, laws made to protect women from dowry harassment are rampantly being misused as a weapon to blackmail, extort money and seek revenge on NRI husbands and their India-based families. This is taking a huge toll on the personal and professional lives of Overseas Indians. Overseas Indians who unwittingly land in India for various reasons have been arrested, ill treated and exploited in the name of dowry laws.
