Mumbai: Until Tuesday afternoon, several in the Social Nagar Dharavi knew Jaan Mohammed Shaikh aka Sameer Kaliata, was arrested in a terror case.
Now, every child in the Laxmibaug area of social nagar will lead one to the 10ftx10ft Kaliya room, which has been locked since Tuesday night after police journalists and TV enters.
Dharavi police recorded the statement of Kalia’s wife on Tuesday on Tuesday.
Shortly after, he went with children, most likely to hold with relatives.
Neighbors were surprised when asked if they knew about the relationship between the terror of Kalia.
“We only know that he used to drive a taxi and then a private taxi.
He lives like a normal person in the area and interacts with us,” his urgent neighbor said.
Other neighbors refused to believe Delhi’s police claimed that he was at a terror conspiracy.
“He is a family man, we have seen him grow up.
He has a daughter and a son.
His parents died a few years ago.
We don’t think he’s involved in anti-social activities,” he said.
KALIYA, a father of two people, owes and needs money, said a police officer.
After he lost his job, he used to drove a taxi he took with a loan.
But he failed to pay and the bank took it.
Then, he took a loan for two-wheeled vehicles and would sell Gutkha and Paan-Beedi from his bicycle.
Social Nagar, a stone’s throw from Zion Station, is one of the oldest Chawl in Dharavi.
Now it has been largely converted into a commercial unit when the garment industry boom in the last decade.
There are small manufacturing and wholesale units that deal with sportswear, jeans, and children’s clothing.
Most of the old people have moved.
