I resided near his house in Delhi, Mukherji Nagar. He used to watch my brother's cricket session every evening, and frequently would make calls to Kashmir from a nearby public booth. Same was with Geelani, and in fact he was seen to be having anti india views and for this he was quiet popular in Mansarovar hostel of Delhi University. Afzal was not caught blindedly. The day I saw many policemen in plain cloths near his house at a time when he had escaped to kashmir and his wife, Afsan, was at home (pregnent too). after some hourrs we neighbours found police thrashing her badly. I felt bad then one neighbour told that plain clothed policemen first came to her house as a gas checking agents and had fitted a microphone and sound recording device. As soon as they left, she talked to Afzal at kashmir and that talk had reference to parliament attack and both afsan wa planning to abscond. This way police got the confirmation and nabbed both of them. I have been close observer of that day episode as well Geelani's image in mansarovar hostel. They are not innocent this is well known fact. They r antinational. Anyway parliament attack was not a big crime..because bigger criminals visit it daily.
