Case filed against author and publisher of Who Killed Karkare?

Ever since the book was published the press as well as authorities have slowly started using the term "Hindu Terror"

After Public Interest Litigation (PIL), a case has been filed against the author and publisher of Who Killed Karkare?. Weeks after the Bombay High Court admitted a PIL seeking investigation in the Karkare murder, a Navi Mumbai-based person has filed a case against both the author and publisher of the book claiming that "the book contains imputations, assertions prejudicial to national integration, statements promoting enmity, hatred between classes/communities and has imputed false allegations against Intelligence Bureau, the Indian judiciary and the government of India."

Ever since the book was published in October 2009, the press as well as the authorities have slowly started using the term "Hindu Terror" or "Saffron Terror" in their reports and comments. Even the Union home minister on 25 August acknowledged their presence. A main premise of Mushrif’s book is that Hindutva terrorists, through their IB contacts, used the 26-11 terrorist attack on Mumbai to kill ATS chief Hemant Karkare who had started unravelling the vast network of Hindutva terror outfits which have effected many terrorists attacks which earlier were assumed to be the handiwork of "Islamic" terrorists.
