BHOPAL: A senior administrative officer has created a flutter among top bureaucrats and law enforcement agencies in Madhya Pradesh by seeking permission to spend a month with underworld don Abu Salem in Taloja jail, Navi Mumbai, so that he can write a book on the Salem-Monica Bedi affair. Niyaz Ahmed Khan’s request is quite unprecedented, say officials.
He is posted as additional district magistrate in Guna and has finalized the title for his book: `Love demands blood’.
He submitted his application to the general administration department (GAD), which has sent it to chief minister Shivraj Singh Chouhan.
Among the things Khan hopes to find out by spending time with Salem in prison is whether he felt true love for Monica and how much he misses her.
