Here all the communities are banned ( atleast I am not able to view any for last couple of weeks)

The site is under the police scanner and anyone from the UAE will be an automatic suspect.

WEB OF CRIME? Police fear crime syndicates may misuse their fans through networking site.

Mumbai: Fan clubs which idolise underworld dons on social networking websites have run afoul of the Mumbai police who plan to closely monitor the content and the members of these communities.


"Though nobody has complained to us, we fear that the communities would be misused by organised crime syndicates. Moreover, there are thousands of members of communities devoted to dons," said Deputy Commissioner of Police (Detection) Dhananjay Kamlakar.


There are eight fan clubs devoted to underworld don Dawood Ibrahim and one each dedicated to Chhota Rajan, Chhota Shakeel and Abu Salem on Orkut.com alone.


"We will have to monitor the material posted and also the members of the networking sites," he said.



Social networking sites, especially the Google-owned Orkut, were in the news recently. The Pune Crime Branch had recently blocked a community which had posted objectionable remarks against the Maratha warrior king Shivaji.


A public interest litigation (PIL) has also been filed in the Bombay High Court asking for a ban on Orkut for hosting the anti-Shivaji community.


Earlier, while hearing another PIL, the Aurangabad bench of the Bombay High Court had issued a notice to the government about the presence of a community titled "I hate India" on the same site.
