Lahore, Aug 8 (PTI): Pakistan has directed a top official to follow up with India the matter of sending 24 witnesses of the Mumbai attack case to Pakistan to record their statements so that the trial in the case could be completed at the earliest. “The Foreign Ministry has written to its director general South Asia to take up the matter of sending 24 Indian witnesses to Pakistan for recording of their statements in the trial court in the Mumbai attack case here with the Indian Government,” Prosecution chief (in Mumbai case) Chaudhry Azhar told PTI. He said earlier the Foreign Ministry had directly written to the Indian Government about sending the 24 witnesses to Pakistan and now it has asked the DG South Asia to follow-up the matter. “We have already made it clear that the Mumbai case cannot move forward unless India sends its witnesses here to record their important statements,” he said. According to the prosecution, all Pakistani witnesses have recorded their statements.
“Considering the emperor’s duties, as well as his age and the burden (of the job), we have to firmly look at what we can do.” Speculation about the emperor’s future emerged last month with reports he had told confidantes that advancing age was making it harder to perform his ceremonial duties and that he would like to step down in a few years. The address marked only the second time for Akihito to speak directly to the nation. The first was in the days after the March 2011 triple earth-
London, Aug 8 (PTI): Newly-appointed UK home secretary Amber Rudd is to decide on the extradition of Tiger Hanif, wanted in India in connection with two bomb blasts in Surat in 1993 following the Babri Masjid demolition, a media report said here today. The 55-year-old Hanif, an alleged aide of underworld don Dawood Ibrahim, was traced to a grocery store in Bolton, Greater Manchester, and arrested by Scotland Yard on an extradition warrant from Indian authorities in February, 2010. He lost his appeal in the UK High Court in April 2013 following which the case was handed over to then UK home secretary and now Prime Minister, Theresa May, to sign an extradition order. As part of UK extradition proceedings, he was allowed to make representations to the Home Office and the case has now passed on to May’s successor Rudd’s desk. “Further representations have been made to the Home Secretary in this case and they are currently being
carefully considered,” a UK Home Office spokesperson said. Hanif, whose full name is Mohammed Hanif Umerji Patel, arrived in the UK illegally in 1996 after skipping bail in India following his arrest over the attacks. He was allowed to stay in Britain claiming he was a Muslim being persecuted in Hindu-dominated Gujarat and went on to obtain a UK passport in 2005. According to a report in the Daily Star Sunday, lawyers representing Hanif have received around 200,000 pounds in legal aid or state funds sought by people unable to afford legal costs of their defence. “The costs to taxpayers of these cases are large enough, without lengthy delays on top causing the bill to balloon”. “Of course procedures must be followed, but a swift resolution is in everyone’s interest, and it’d save taxpayers’ money too,” Jonathan Isaby, from UK pressure group TaxPayers’ Alliance, told the newspaper. May had first ordered Hanif ’s extradition to India

Jeddah, Aug 8 (PTI): Saudi Arabia’s King Salman has ordered authorities to address “once and for all” the grievances of distressed foreign workers, especially Indians and the Filipinos, stranded in the Kingdom after not being paid for months. The King, in a series of directives yesterday, ordered the Minister of Labour and Social Development to take necessary measures, in coordination with the Ministry of Finance, to oblige companies who have contracts with the government to pay the salaries of their employees in accordance with the government’s Wage Protection Programme that ensures workers’ salaries are fully paid.

“Without an investigation, we cannot tell what caused the accident,” Ramesh Shiwakoti of the Fishtail Air said. In Nepal, air travel is hugely popular as there is only a limited road network.

In February, 23 people on board a small plane were killed after their aircraft crashed in a remote mountainous region amid poor visibility.
Dhaka, Aug 8 (PTI): Bangladesh police have raided the office of a news website and detained three journalists for allegedly spreading rumours about the death of Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina’s son in a plane crash, days after the government shut down over 30 online portals in a crackdown on media. Rapid Action Battalion (RAB) personnel raided the office of banglamail24.com last night and detained its editor Shahadat Ulla Khan, executive editor Maksudul Alam and reporter Pranta Palash. They also seized a computer from the office. “We have detained the three to be questioned on allegations of spreading rumours...we are yet to decide if they will be freed or arrested,” a RAB official told newsmen. According to journalists of the online newspaper, the website ran a story published by an obscure news portal called Todaynews71 claiming that the Premier’s son was killed in a plane crash along with its own comments criticising the “baseless report”. They said the RAB men raided their office after they ignored a request by the Premier’s office to retract the story from the site, which remained unupdated since their detention.

in June 2012 and his last appeal was heard in the UK High Court in April 2013 when Justice Kenneth Parker said there was “no arguable basis” for not extraditing him. Justice Parker had said in his ruling, “The information provided in the request describes how, following an attack on a mosque in December 1992, internecine hostilities broke out between the Muslim and Hindu communities in Gujarat. “The requesting state’s case is that the appellant was part of a Muslim group which obtained explosives, guns and other weapons and then carried out revenge terrorist attacks on the Hindu community, including two explosions which resulted in loss of life, injury and damage,” he said. The first explosion was in January 1993 in a market in Surat which killed an eightyear-old girl and the second in April 1993 at Surat railway station. If the new UK home secretary signs the extradition order, Hanif may take his appeal to the European Court of Human Rights.

The Sinhala-majority dominated government at the Centre must not use the Muslim issues in the north and east in order not to grant a federal structure with the merger of the two provinces, he said. Within the united north and east, the Tamilspeaking Muslims could have separate autonomous unit, he said.

quake, tsunami and nuclear disaster as he sought to calm a nation undergoing its worst crisis since the war. Japan’s imperial house is said to be the world’s oldest hereditary monarchy, and according to legend stretches back some 2,600 years in an unbroken line. Akihito has keenly embraced the role of symbol of the state imposed after the war. He is credited with seeking reconciliation both at home and abroad over the legacy of the war fought in his father’s name. He has ventured to a number of locales that saw intense fighting, including Okinawa at home and Saipan, Palau and the Philippines abroad, making sure to offer prayers for the souls of all the dead and not just Japanese. Any eventual move by Akihito to step down appears to have wide public support. A sur vey by Kyodo News last week showed that 85.7 percent of people surveyed were in favour of legal changes that would allow abdication.
Colombo, Aug 8 (PTI): Chief Minister of Sri Lanka’s Tamil- dominated northern province C V Wigneswaran has asked the community to “insist” on the federal solution to resolve the country’s decadeslong ethnic conflict.

His comments came in the backdrop of the current move to adopt a new Constitution for the country replacing the existing one formulated in 1978.

Tokyo, Aug 8 (AFP): Japanese Emperor Akihito said today he is concerned his weakening health may make it hard to fulfil his duties, in a speech seen as signalling a possible future abdication. “I am worried that it may become difficult for me to carry out my duties as the symbol of the state with my whole being as I have done until now,” he said in an address to the nation. “There are times when I feel various constraints such as in my physical fitness,” the 82-year-old said. Akihito spoke obliquely -- never mentioning the word abdication -- but the government is expected to interpret his comments as meaning his wish is to eventually step down. It can then begin creating the necessary legal mechanism which currently does not exist. Prime Minister Shinzo Abe, in a swift response to the emperor’s speech, said the government would take the emperor’s remarks “seriously”.
