A very shocking and scary news is coming out from Chicago, America. Police in Chicago, Illinois have arrested a 19-year-old youth, foiling a major terrorist conspiracy in time. The accused has been identified as Alexandros Paporakis, who works as a cashier at ‘Taco Bell’. The accused was planning a dangerous mass indiscriminate firing at a prominent Hindu temple in Chicago and targeting the Indian community. After this sensational revelation, there is an atmosphere of deep concern among the Indian and Hindu community living in America.
A bloody conspiracy was hatched by calling itself a ‘white supremacist’
According to officials of the Cook County State’s Attorney’s Office, the accused Papourakis had openly declared himself a ‘White Supremacist’. He had mentioned a ‘special day’ during a conversation with a colleague last Sunday and shared an 8-page document, which is being called a ‘manifest’. In this dangerous document, a complete outline was prepared for mass firing on Indian people and minorities. Additionally, it also included photographs of several modern weapons and tactical gear (protection equipment). One of his alert colleagues informed the police in time, thereby averting a major bloodbath.
There was a plan to target the biggest Hindu temple of Aurora
In a joint operation, the Mount Prospect and Palatine police departments caught the accused as he came out of his house on Sunday afternoon. Police investigation has revealed that the accused was planning to play a bloody game on a major Hindu temple in the city of Aurora, located about 40 miles away from Palatine. ‘Sri Venkateswara Swamy (Balaji) Temple’ located in Aurora, Illinois, the largest Hindu temple in the area, was considered to be the main target of the accused. When the police searched his house, he was shocked. Authorities recovered a deadly rifle, several loaded magazines, hundreds of rounds of ammunition and a tactical vest emblazoned with symbols and patches associated with white supremacist extremism.
Poison spewed against Indians, Jews and African-Americans
According to court documents obtained by ‘The Associated Press’, investigators have closely examined the accused’s electronic messages and the ‘manifesto’ he prepared, titled ‘Why I Fought: (Manifesto of the Aurora Shooter)’. In this document, huge hatred was spread against Indians, Jews and African-Americans by calling them ‘sub-human’ and a conspiracy was hatched to kill them in maximum numbers. At the time of his arrest, the accused had said that he ‘can’t wait to kill Indian people’.
Accused caught due to alert colleague’s intelligence, will appear in court on 30th
According to police officials, before committing the crime on Sunday, the accused had called one of his colleagues and informed that the cartridge of his gun had jammed, after which he got scared and ran away from there. The police swung into action on the information of a colleague and took immediate action and arrested him. On Wednesday, the suspect was produced in the court, where the judge ordered him to be sent to judicial custody. Now he will be presented in the court again on October 30. Human rights organizations say that in the last few years, there has been a rapid increase in hate crimes against South Asian and Indian immigrants in America, which requires strict legal action to curb it.
