Woodson funded his efforts to influence U.S. policy towards Kashmir. Fai's guilty Partner plea arises from a criminal complaint, filed against him in July 2011, 202.719.4638 [email protected] which charged him and another individual with conspiring to act as an agent of a foreign principal without registering, in violation of the Foreign Agents Registration Act (FARA) and to falsify, conceal and cover up material facts they had a duty to disclose to the government.

  • A Charge Sheet Against the UPA Government and Its Remote Control Chief
    A charge sheet against the UPA government and its remote control chief. (By N.T.Ravindranath) 1) UPA government follows pro-terrorist policies. The first major decision of the UPA government after coming to power in 2004 was the abolition of Prevention of Terrorism Act (POTA). When the jihadi terror was becoming deadlier, and Maoist movement was making steady inroads into all remote and tribal areas in the country, what was the need and logic behind abolishing a tough anti-terror law like the POTA? It was the first and clear signal to show that the UPA government wanted to be helpful to terrorists and all other anti-national forces. The UPA government, taking the side of foreign-funded NGO and human rights activists, has also been trying to abolish the Armed Forces Special Powers Act (AFSPA) from Jammu and Kashmir and North-Eastern states. However it could not be done so far, only due to stiff resistance from the army which considers the AFSPA as a very vital tool for their effective operation in the disturbed areas of Jammu and Kashmir and the North-East region. 2) Sonia Gandhi opposes anti-terror laws. After the terror attacks in Mumbai in November 2008, there was tremendous pressure from various security agencies and political leaders, including some prominent members within the UPA government, for enacting a new anti-terror law to effectively deal with the worsening security situation in the country. However a powerful group of pro-militant Sonia loyalists within the UPA still resisted the move for any such new anti-terror law.
