Crime Monitor
Oh Jesus, Please Forgive them for all the sins committed in your name!
.Starting with a sensational report in the Asianet News channel about the illegal trafficking of woman by one of the Pious Christians in Muscat, the Malabari Mafia kings have been at loggerheads with the KM journalist for obvious reasons. one such Malayali Messiah used to recruit innocent Christian girls from various parts Kerala using his Church/Pastor connection and forced them into to the lucrative prostitution in the Gulf. The mafia king used to run a syndicate of illicit liquor trade and woman trafficking using the church links in the Gulf and Kerala as a cover. Reporting this criminal activity in the Asianet by the journalist really embarrassed the born again Christians, who started a covert campaign to tarnish the journalist in public. Pressure tactics and threatening calls did not persuade the journalist from reporting the crime in Asianet. The culprits had to sent back the girl from Ernakulam , their anger against the journalist was natural. The Malabaris mafia ganged up with the rest of Indian mafia who are indulged in similar criminal activity. They bribed some crucial people in Asianet and managed to get the journalist's services terminated from the Malayalam channel. While the local Gulf media are also controlled by this mafia, reporting such crime is often equated with crime/ illegal activity by the elite journalists . Whether it was a question of giving private school license to one individual or reporting about mismanagement of finances or discrimination against certain ethnic groups, KM has been quite an embarrassment to a powerful Mafia in the Gulf. Naturally the lobby acted in self defense and started a multifaceted campaign to malign the journalist. Even the service of some senior Christian journalists working in the media was used in this perverted hate campaign- Read more sensational revelation. More

PCO Pyas more than the PDO
A senior member of the Church has raised an alarm bell about the abnomrally high payment offered to a senior pastor, which claims is about RO 1700 per month (equivalent to two lakh Indian rupees)! While some of the pastors get as low as RO 600 per month, many others render voluntary service for the sake of God. If it is a basic religious principal taught by all the priests is that all are equal before the God. How come some pastors are more equal than others? We dont believe that the colour of the skin matters much before God! Read the following message posted by a respected member of the Church community in Muscat. More on Corruption in Church
What is true is not always Appreciated/Accepted
What is Appreciated/Accepted is not always True
Dear PCO member
There is a very good reason behind using a pen-name. In fact, I am not a regular attendee. What is important is not my real name !!! The fact here is to verify if these accusations are true or not. All expenses made by the PCO should be JUSTIFIED so that the income can be maintained and increased!!! When a water tank leaks even slightly, the solution is not to pour much more water that what drips out !!! Even an utter idiot will seal up the leaks !!!! More

T.N.Shaji Journalist, Muscat is suspended from the Indian Social Club Malayalam Wing membership allegedly for disturbing the Committee meeting after drinking, an allegation denied by the member. According to sources, the ISC Malayalam Wing convener Kalidasan has issued a suspension notice to Shaji, which will effectively disqualify Usha Shaji from the club's committee membership.

While the fabricated charges and leveled against members of the opposite groups, the only victim is the Kerala community, which is witnessing all these drama silently.
NRIs continue to Build Castles in the Air
"We are trying to trace an absconding couple called Amar R... and Chri....(full names withheld) from Bangalore, India who have cheated me and a dozen others in property deals in Banglaore. They have miss-appropriated millions and left many people homeless. It is reliably learnt that they are holed up in Muscat and trying to bide their time till they migrate to Australia. The last we heard was Amar was doing business in garments and then he gave up and started working for some company in Muscat. We believe even his wife ... is also working and recently their son joined them from India. Please beware they are ace con artists, any assistance in tracing them is a service to society and god only knows how many more people they are trying to cheat right now in Oman. Their most famous victim is Mr. Eswara Rao former Director of AIR, who having lost all his retirement money to this ...Amar and has been left with no money for medical treatment for his weak heart.--from an SOS send by a duped investor from Dohar Qatar More
Social Club Couples - Violent Husband of lady's wing Convener suspended from ISC Malayalam Wing membership for attacking lady CO convener.
Giving temporary respite to tension and depression following the heinous attack on the lady CO-convener of the ISC Malayalam Wing by another male member, the parent body, the Indian Social Club is learned to have taken some harsh, but undisclosed punitive action against the convener. The ISC gave directions to the adamant man to "suspend" or remove the male member who attacked Usha Shaji. Even though the convener and cultural coordinator Radhakrishnan wanted to protect the violent couple by pretending ignorance about the physical assault on a respected lady member which happened in front of the duo, the ISC seriously considered a medical certificate produced by the victim to prove that she was subjected to physical attack. Even though many club members have been misguided not to believe the physical attack theory, the lady member had clear marks caused by the severe blow with sandals . While the male member claimed that he attacked the journalist allegedly for misbehaviour, the ISC committee members, especially a sensible lady from the Khimji family, took a strong position against attacking a woman in public. "Who authorised him to attack the husband," she is said to have asked the convener. The whole argument of the convener and company appears to give an impression that attacking a male member, that also a journalist, is an accepted norm in ISC Malayalam Wing. Let us watch whether the media couple will regain their lost glory and stage a come back and replace the convener?
