    'Let us not jump to conclusions. Wait for the investigations.'

    Against the backdrop of suspected American terrorist David Headley's visit to parts of India including Mumbai, Maharashtra Chief Minister Ashok Chavan said his government has taken all security measures in case of any terror strike.

    "We (state government) are prepared for everything... All steps will be taken. He was in Mumbai and India. He is under the custody of the FBI and from our side the NIA is investigating the matter," Chavan told reporters in New Delhi on his first visit to Delhi after being sworn in as the Chief Minister of the state.

    Asked about the alleged terror plot which Headley had weaved, Chavan said, "let us not jump to conclusions. Wait for the investigations".

    To a query about the role of Rahul Bhatt, the son of film maker Mahesh Bhatt, Chavan said no statement should be made which unnecessarily brings a bad name to a person even as investigations are on.

    "The police is looking into it..." he said when asked if clean chit was given to Rahul Bhatt. He added, he was not imputing that a clean chit was given yet as the issue is under investigation.

    Replying to questions on other issues, the Chief Minister rejected allegations that compensation was not given to all the victims of the 26/11 terror attack in Mumbai, saying this was "wrong".

    Chavan said, "Everyone is sympathetic to the family of the victims. It is not proper to bring such issues again and again."

    Asked whether the state government would recommend the de-recognition of Maharashtra Navnirman Sena due to its activities in the recent past, the CM said that four MLAs of the party have already been suspended for their actions in the state Assembly.

    Rahul Bhatt acted per dad' Mahesh Bhatts request re David Headley ,Dawood IbrahimBy: Mustafa Ajmal Khan | 19-Nov-2009 Reply | Forward CONNECTION BETWEEN RAHUL BHATT AND DAVID COLEMAN HEADLEY IS THROUGH DAWOOD IBRAHIM, TERRORIST AND BOLLYWOD FINANCIER It is clear that Rahul Bhatt and Mahesh Bhatt are lying. Mahesh Bhatt is one of the most well known movie directors in India. Children of the famous simply do not start hanging out with someone they just meet at a gym. Rather, David Headley's trip was organized by Dawood Ibrahim, the well known terrorist and Bollywood financier. Mahesh Bhatt's specific instruction was to have his son Rahul strike up a relationship with David Headley and show him a good time around Mumbai. I am sure that Mahesh Bhatt was only too happy to oblige Dawood Ibrahim who very likely finances his bollywood movies. It was prearranged by Dawood's men that David would meet Rahul at the exclusive gym. Now that the whole story has unraveled, the Bhatts are pretending to save their face by claiming they were clueless about David Headley's true motives. This is complete hogwash.
    Why jump on conclusion, if the investigation is on?By: Muntazir Abbas | 19-Nov-2009 Reply | Forward It's unfortunate that people are jumping onto conclusions, even though investigation is on. In addition, a section of people with vested interest always try to get popularity on such issues which are nation-sensitive. Media reporting is often based upon the briefing from administrative authorities. Thus, the role of media should be constructive and dignified with a true spirit of journalism.

Whatever is possible under law, strong action will be taken if anyone indulges in illegal activity"..........Go get some sleep.....we all know who and how the law plays.......
