NEW DELHI: In a startling revelation, the chargesheet in the Parliament security breach case has disclosed that Manoranjan D, the main conspirator, attempted to bribe a Telangana-based journalist, Anil, promising him funding from international communities.
According to a top source, Anil, who runs a digital newspaper, was initially part of Manoranjan’s group. Anil, who was in debt of Rs six lakh, was lured by Manoranjan with the promise of international funds through their act of breaching Parliament security. However, Anil later distanced himself from the group, citing their involvement in criminal activities and his unwillingness to face prosecution.
“Manoranjan even attempted to bribe a Telangana-based journalist, Anil, to achieve his goal. Manoranjan teamed up with Anil, who runs a digital newspaper. Anil was in debt of Rs six lakh. Manoranjan told him they would get international funds through their act (Parliament security breach). However, later Anil quit his group, saying it would be a criminal activity against the country,” the source said, quoting the chargesheet.

Subsequently, two more aides, Lalit Jha and Mahesh Kumawat, were also arrested.
Accused Master Deception: Camouflage of Truth in Parliament Attack
Manoranjan, 35, a native of Mysore, had quit engineering to engage in social work. He was involved in farming alongside his father and had in the past worked in an IT firm in Bengaluru. His father said he would travel to Delhi and Bengaluru often.
Investigators were stunned to discover that the six accused had mastered the art of deception, presenting a unified front of falsehoods during the initial interrogations. They claimed the Parliament attack was merely a publicity stunt to raise awareness about social issues. However, their stories kept shifting, as they attempted to conceal the true conspiracy.
Despite extensive probing, the accused remained evasive and deceptive, both individually and collectively. When questioned about their connections, they offered vague, one-line responses, such as meeting through social media. The origins of the plot remained murky, with the accused attributing it to a joint initiative. Investigators were left with more questions than answers, as the accused continued to camouflage their true intentions and motives behind the heinous act.
The case continues to unfold, with authorities working diligently to uncover the full extent of the conspiracy and bring all involved to justice.
