Policemen grill starlet’s stepdad

The Mumbai police’s crime branch has begun interrogating Parvaiz Iqbal Tak, the stepfather of Laila Khan, allegedly involved in the kidnapping and subsequent reported murder of the Bollywood starlet and her mother and three other family members.
A court in Kishtwar town in eastern Jammu and Kashmir had on Saturday granted four days’ transit remand of Tak, a forest contractor turned politician against whom several criminal cases are under investigation by the local police, to the crime branch of Mumbai police, which is probing the kidnapping of Laila Khan and her family. Tak was arrested by Kishtwar police from Jammu on June 21 in a case of alleged forgery, cheating and criminal conspiracy days after finding the starlet’s Mitsubishi Outlander abandoned in a marketplace of Kishtwar town.
During interrogation, he had reportedly told the police that Laila Khan was shot dead along with her four family members in a Mumbai suburb in February 2011 by a local financier and real estate developer and his accomplices with the intention to lay their hands on her property and that of her mother Salina, divorced wife of Nadir Shah Patel, a metropolitan-based businessman.
Tak was produced before the Munsif’s court where a four member team of crime branch Mumbai had filed an application seeking his transit remand of the accused.
It claimed that the accused was required to be questioned in the alleged case of kidnapping of the Bollywood starlet. In the application filed by Sanjay More, assistant police inspector, crime branch, Mumbai, the court was informed that the accused is wanted in a case under FIR 218/12 u/s 363/364-A IPC and was required to be questioned to solve the mystery behind sudden disappearance of starlet and her family members. It described the case as of “national importance.”

I want to begin with a little story that was told to me by a leading executive at Aptech. He was exercising in a gym with a lot of younger people.

Shekhar Kapur’s Bandit Queen didn’t make the cut. Neither did Shaji Karun’s Piravi, which bagged 31 international awards.
