# The Global Intelligence Files

On Monday February 27th, 2012, WikiLeaks began publishing The Global Intelligence Files, over five million e-mails from the Texas headquartered "global intelligence" company Stratfor. The e-mails date between July 2004 and late December 2011. They reveal the inner workings of a company that fronts as an intelligence publisher, but provides confidential intelligence services to large corporations, such as Bhopal's Dow Chemical Co., Lockheed Martin, Northrop Grumman, Raytheon and government agencies, including the US Department of Homeland Security, the US Marines and the US Defence Intelligence Agency. The emails show Stratfor's web of informers, pay-off structure, payment laundering techniques and psychological methods.

A curfew in India*s southern city of Hyderabad has been extended to the
morning of March 31 following three days of riots between Hindus and
Muslims that have left one dead and 80 injured. The clashes in Hyderabad,
India*s high-tech hub in Andhra Pradesh state, were sparked late March 27
when groups of Hindu activists attempted to replace green Muslim banners
with their own saffron flags. Hyderabad*s old city was then overwhelmed
with attacks by Hindu and Muslim mobs against religious sites, vehicles,
shops and houses. One person in Shalibanda area was stabbed to death March
29 in the ensuing violence.
On the evening of March 29, the government imposed a curfew in the city*s
South Zone, where communal clashes were most intense in Moghalpura,
Shalibanda, Charminar, Aliabad, Falaknuma, Shamsheegunj and Lal Darwaja
districts. A paramilitary force of 1,800 officers from the Central Reserve
Police Force (CRPF), Rapid Action Force (RAF) and Central Industrial
Security Force (CISF) were deployed by the central government to enforce
the curfew. Since the curfew was imposed, the situation has calmed
considerably. Sporadic stone-pelting incidents were reported in the areas
of Gulzar Houz and Shahali Banda and were quickly suppressed by
baton-wielding riot police. Some 130 people that were believed to be
involved in the riots have been arrested so far. The curfew was extended
to account for the Hindu celebrations for Hanuman Jayanti March 30. Hindu
processions for the holiday have been banned in the old city, but have
been taking place in other parts of Hyderabad.
Hyderabad a densely populated city of eight million, 40 percent of which
are Muslim, is no stranger to communal riots. This latest wave of riots
comes at a particularly tense time as the central government continues to
equivocate over an earlier pledge to grant statehood to Telangana
http://www.stratfor.com/analysis/20091210_india_state_born, a region of
Andhra Pradesh that would encompass Hyderabad. In an attempt to force the
government*s hand on the issue, Telangana activists have since caused
major disruptions in the city and surrounding areas through strikes,
blockades and sporadic attacks on businesses. Some Telangana political
activists are now accusing the members of the ruling Congress party of
sparking this recent spate of communal riots in an attempt to stave off a
decision on Telangana, claiming that the riots were designed to support
Congress claims that the division of the state would lead to an escalation
of Hindu-Muslim tensions.
The uptick in communal tensions in Hyderabad provide an opportunity to
Telangana activists to ratchet up their protests and pressure the central
government at a time when New Delhi is already concerned about frightening
off foreign investors
http://www.stratfor.com/analysis/india_shining_india_beginning_tarnish.
Additionally, India remains under threat by Islamist militant groups
http://www.stratfor.com/analysis/20100214_india_blast_pune that have a
presence in the area and feed on Hindu-Muslim riots to gain recruits and
constituent support. The more destabilized Hyderabad becomes, the more of
an opportunity such groups have to carry out attacks. The situation is
deescalating for the time-being, but it only takes a small spark to
reignite the communal flame in a city like Hyderabad.
