Man enters auditorium with revolver before UP CM’s arrival; 4 policemen suspended

In an event attended by the Chief Minister of Uttar Pradesh Yogi Adityanath in the Basti district, a so-called major safety blunder, a man with a revolver entered the auditorium a few minutes before his arrival on Tuesday.

Although the person was quickly taken out of the auditorium, at least four police officers were suspended on Thursday due to lax work. Earlier this week, Adityanath participated in a project at the Atal Bihari Vajpayee Auditorium in the Basti District.

Local police stations and personnel from other areas were deployed to perform security tasks. Approximately 45 minutes before the arrival of the Chief Minister, Jatshankar Shukla, a representative from the Gaur neighbourhood, arrived at the scene.

According to a report, Shukla’s younger brother Amardeep’s brother-in-law Jitendra Pandey also entered the auditorium with his licensed revolver, but was later pulled out by police officers present. Basti SP Ashish Srivastava told, “There is a VIP event for the Chief Minister in the Basti district.

Forty-five minutes before his arrival, a man brought his licensed revolver into the auditorium; the attendant on duty saw him. ” He said that the man was later taken out of the auditorium and his identity was determined. Considering that the gunman successfully entered the auditorium where the high-profile event was held, some police roles quickly entered the scene.

Who is Harun Abdul-Malik Yener? Florida man arrested over bomb threat to New York Stock Exchange

FBI arrested Harun Abdul-Malik Yener for allegedly planning a bombing at the NYSE to “reset” the US government.

Harun Abdul-Malik Yener, a South Florida resident, has been arrested by the FBI for allegedly plotting to bomb the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE) as part of a plan to “reset” or “reboot” the U.S. government. According to unsealed court documents, Yener faces charges of attempting to use an improvised explosive device (IED) against a “building used in interstate or foreign commerce.”

The investigation into Yener began in February when the FBI received a tip about his possession of bomb-making plans stored in a locked Coral Springs storage unit. Upon executing a search warrant, agents discovered “bomb-making sketches, numerous watches with timers, electronic circuit boards, and other electronics” that could be used to construct explosives, per the criminal complaint.

Court documents reveal that Yener was not only active on YouTube, posting videos on making explosives and fireworks, but also had a history of making threats.

Harun Abdul-Malik Yener wanted to ‘reset’ US government

Back in March, Yener admitted to undercover federal agents that he had experience in creating “rockets” and “bombs” and had previously sought to join a “domestic extremist group.” He also revealed that in 2015, he had considered travelling to Iraq to join ISIS but ultimately decided against it, doubting the group’s ability to accomplish “their objectives.”

Yener also attempted to join extremist groups such as the Boogaloo Bois and the Proud Boys but was reportedly denied membership due to his stated desire to “pursue martyrdom.”

Yener allegedly shared his plot to attack the NYSE with an undercover FBI agent, identifying November 18 as his intended date for the bombing. He wanted to “reboot” or “reset” US government through the “bombing”.

“There is one place that would be hella easy… the stock exchange, that would be a great hit. Tons of people would support it. They would see it and think, dude, this guy makes sense, they are [profanity] robbing us. So that’s perfect,” he told the undercover agent.

On November 12, Yener reportedly made several audio recordings he planned to send to NBC News following the attack. He expressed his vision of the explosion as being comparable to a nuclear event, saying, “I feel like Bin Laden.” He allegedly added that the detonation would ensure “[a]nything outside” the building “will be wiped out” and “anything inside there would be killed.”

Following his arrest, Yener made his first court appearance and remains in custody as he awaits trial.
