"Similarly, there was enough evidence to prove the involvement of SIMI in the Malegaon mayhem. The US intelligence agencies had proved that the Samjhauta Express blasts had the signature of Lashkar-e-Taiba. But the NIA ignored all these facts to focus its investigation on saffron groups. This is despite the fact that there were clear similarities between the terror incidents of the so-called Hindutva terror phase and those that followed in the coming years. Yet, an argument was put forward that the majority of the people killed in the so-called saffron terrorist attacks were Muslims and that as Islamist terrorists would never have targeted them, only Hindu extremists could have carried out these attacks."
