Mumbai: Accusing Maharashtra Home Minister R R Patil of leaking information on Ajmal Kasab's time in prison and his cremation inside Yerwada jail, Shiv Sena has demanded his removal from the cabinet.
Making this demand, Shiv Sena MLC Anil Parab said he has based his demand for Patil's dismissal on a four-page article written by the Home Minister in a Marathi Diwali magazine published by a media house.
The four-page article titled ‘Operation X' divulges details about Kasab's violent behaviour inside the barracks, how the state went about his cremation inside the Yerwada Jail in Pune and who performed the last rites on the terrorist.
Parab asked the Governor to take strict cognisance of the details shared by Patil in the magazine as it has “compromised on the national security”.
