Man injured in Goa blast dies in hospital | A second man injured in a scooter bomb blast in Madgaon on October
16, Yogesh Naik, died on Tuesday morning. He had been hospitalized at the Goa
Medical College on Friday after the blast and had been in a critical condition
since. Malgonda Patil, who was injured in the blast alongwith Naik, had died on
Friday night. Both the men were suspects in the blast and the police had registered
a case against them under sections of the Unlawful Activities Prevention Act and
the Indian Penal Code for waging war against the nation. Malgonda was from Sangli
district of Maharashtra, while Yogesh Naik was a Goa resident. Goa's Transport
Minister, Sudhin Davalkar, meanwhile, finds himself fighting off allegations that
his family may in some way be linked to last Friday's blast. Davalkar's wife spends
three hours every day with Sanatan Sanstha, the Hindu right-wing group that's
accused of the blast. The scooter used to trigger the blast belonged to Nishad
Bakle, a man related to the minister. Davalkar has claimed that his wife volunteers
with the Sanstha, and visits their ashram to meditate. Davalkar also says the
scooter used in the blast was sold by his relative a few months ago. There are
also reports of the Goa Government considering a proposal to ban the sanstha for
its alleged illegal activities. |
