On June 13, Andheri Metropolitan Magistrate in Mumbai (Maharashtra) granted the Mumbai Police permission to collect the DNA samples of Dawood Ibrahim's aide Muzzakir Muddassar alias Munna Jhingada's family members, reports The Times of India. However, the court also said that the Police cannot use blood samples of Jhingada's family members as evidence in the case of deporting him from Thailand. Police said that the order will help them prove that Jhingada is Indian national and very much a criminal from Mumbai who fled away in 2000. Earlier, in 2012, the Thai authorities assured India to hand Jhingada but Pakistan authorities too had claimed his custody saying Jhingada was a Pakistani National. He was arrested by the Thai Police on charges of attempt to kill fugitive gangster Chhota Rajan in 2000. Jhingada, with associates Rashid Malbari and Gurpeet Singh Bullar, was arrested and he was sent to jail for eight years. Jhingada has completed his sentence in Thai jail but due to legal fight over his nationality he is still waiting in Thai jail.

After a span of 11 years, trial in cases of bomb blast in the three areas of Mumbai (Maharashtra): Vile Parle station (January 27, 2003), Mulund train (March 13, 2003) and McDonald's (December 6, 2002), began on July 8, with a witness deposing before the Prevention of Terrorism Act (POTA) court, reports The Times of India.

He was brought to Mumbai on July 16 and produced before the Maharashtra Control of Organised Crime Act (MCOCA) Court which remanded him in Police custody till July 28, 2014. Following the blasts, he fled to Dubai, and a look-out notice was issued in 2013 for him, after his name came up in connection with funding Indian Mujahideen (IM) for carrying out the blasts. Damada, a native of Bhatkal in Karnataka, runs a garment business in Dubai. His partner Muzaffar Kola is also accused of facilitating hawala money for the 13/7 blasts. Kola, in turn, is known to another Delhi based hawala agent, Kanwalnayan Pathrija, who was arrested by ATS in 2012. "In connivance with each other, these three agents handed over Rs 10 lakh in cash to Bhatkal, and the money was used to trigger the coordinated 13/7 explosions," an ATS officer said.

The court remanded the accused in ATS custody till August 2 after the prosecution informed that ATS needs to track the trail of money. Chief public prosecutor Kalpana Chavan, while seeking the extension, informed the court that hawala mode was how the money was transferred and, hence, the agency needs more time to track the trail as the blasts could not have happened without the financial aid.

The Nagpur bench of Bombay High Court granted parole to a 1997 Mumbai bomb blast convict, Mohammed Farukh Mohammed Yusuf Sheikh for attending his daughter's marriage, The Times of India reports on August 1. Mohammed Farukh lodged in Amravati jail, had applied for a parole to divisional commissioner and jail superintendent for attending his daughter's marriage. But it was rejected on the apprehension that he would re-engage in terrorist activities on release. The respondents also informed that the accused, undergoing 55 years of consecutive imprisonment, might jump the parole and go into hiding. The petitioner challenged this decision through counsel Mir Nagman Ali who contended that earlier also, he was released on parole and he returned before it ended, without indulging in any criminal activity. A division bench comprising Justices Bhushan Dharmadhikari and Chandrakant Bhadang then issued notices to the Amravati commissioner and superintendent before releasing him on parole.

A special court judge has ruled that the Maharashtra Control of Organised Crime Act (MCOCA) cannot be applied to acts of terror as terrorist activities are not aimed at generating any monetary gains as defined under MCOCA, Mumbai Mirror reports on August 21. Special MCOCA court judge A L Pansare, while dropping the 'organized crime syndicate' charge against eight accused in the August 2012 Jungali Maharaj blasts case of August 1, 2012, said a person cannot be identified as offender under the Unlawful Activities Prevention Act (UAPA) and the MCOCA simultaneously. Differentiating between UAPA and MCOCA, Judge Pansare noted that under former the emphasis is on the crime and benefits, mainly monetary, while the latter essentially deals with terrorist organisations and its activities. While the accused will continue to be tried under UAPA, the prosecution cases will be weakened considerably as confessions under MCOCA will be rendered useless. "The main reason for applying MCOCA in terror cases was the provision of recording confessional statements that is absent in UAPA. A lot of convictions in terror cases have been based on these confessions," advocate Sharif Sheikh, who represents several accused in Mumbai in terror cases, said. "MCOCA and UAPA operate under different fields and the ambit and scope of each is distinct from the other. The present case (Jungli Maharaj Road blasts) being the case of a serial bomb blasts, the same will attract the provisions of only UAPA," the judge said.
