Have not had any news from you for many days. No letter either. I hope everything is well. Do send a letter sometimes.” On May 6, 2007, this letter (written in Bengali) and two others (in English) were allegedly recovered by the Chhattisgarh police from the possession of Kolkata businessman Pijush Guha near the Raipur railway station.<br /><br />On his arrest, the police claimed that Mr. Guha confessed that the letters were written by Narayan Sanyal, an inmate of the Raipur Central Jail, and passed on to him by Binayak Sen, celebrated physician and human rights activist. The police said Mr. Sanyal was a high-ranking member of the banned Communist Party of India (Maoist) and that the letters were part of a larger conspiracy to aid the CPI (Maoist) in its stated goal to overthrow the Indian state.<br /><br /><em>Crucial evidence<br /></em><br />On December 24 this year, Judge B.P.

The copies of the letters obtained by this correspondent are illegible in parts, but appear to ask associates 'P' and 'V' about the progress of an unnamed organisation and emphasise the need to expand beyond “base areas” and work with unorganised and organised workers. The English letters also allude to an “armed squad.”<br /><br />A passage in letter (76) (14) reads: “One day recently, TV showed one Jan where our armed squad was …(unclear) person for acknowledging his guilt… (unclear) killed both.”<br /><br />The Bengali letter seems to describe the progress of Mr. Sanyal's court case in connection with the murder of Hungaram Markam in Dantewada in 2005, and another case in Jharkhand. “My talking to the advocate has not resulted in anything… My assessment — not doing anything seriously…I heard that even now the H.C. Ranchi Bail application has not happened… if the bail happens, one can take a chance.”<br /><br />In their arguments, the prosecution tried to establish exactly how and when the letters were passed on from Mr. Sanyal to Dr. Sen and from Dr. Sen to Mr. Guha.<br /><br />Dr. Sen met Mr. Sanyal in Raipur jail several times in his capacity as a doctor and Chhattisgarh secretary of the People's Union for Civil Liberties (PUCL).

No clear proof of how Sanyal's letters changed hands by Aman Sethi |
They're part of a conspiracy to aid CPI (Maoist)'s goal to overthrow Indian state: police
Expert testified that the letters were probably written by Sanyal Sanyal says police coerced him into writing them “Dear Friend, I hope you are well. Have not had any news from you for many days. No letter either. I hope everything is well. Do send a letter sometimes.” On May 6, 2007, this letter (written in Bengali) and two others (in English) were allegedly recovered by the Chhattisgarh police from the possession of Kolkata businessman Pijush Guha near the Raipur railway station. On his arrest, the police claimed that Mr. Guha confessed that the letters were written by Narayan Sanyal, an inmate of the Raipur Central Jail, and passed on to him by Binayak Sen, celebrated physician and human rights activist. The police said Mr. Sanyal was a high-ranking member of the banned Communist Party of India (Maoist) and that the letters were part of a larger conspiracy to aid the CPI (Maoist) in its stated goal to overthrow the Indian state. Crucial evidence On December 24 this year, Judge B.P. Verma of the Raipur Additional District and Sessions Court convicted the three men of a conspiracy to commit sedition and sentenced them to life imprisonment. The letters served as crucial evidence to prove that the three men were in contact with one another. A handwriting expert testified that the letters were probably written by Mr. Sanyal. Mr. Sanyal says the police coerced him into writing the letters while he was incarcerated in the Raipur jail. Letters (76) (14) and (77) (15) are in English, while letter (78) (16) is in Bengali. The copies of the letters obtained by this correspondent are illegible in parts, but appear to ask associates 'P' and 'V' about the progress of an unnamed organisation and emphasise the need to expand beyond “base areas” and work with unorganised and organised workers.

Ranchi Bail application has not happened… if the bail happens, one can take a chance.” In their arguments, the prosecution tried to establish exactly how and when the letters were passed on from Mr. Sanyal to Dr. Sen and from Dr. Sen to Mr. Guha. Dr. Sen met Mr. Sanyal in Raipur jail several times in his capacity as a doctor and Chhattisgarh secretary of the People's Union for Civil Liberties (PUCL). Dr. Sen's lawyers stated that the two men met with the written permission of the jail authorities. Jailers have testified that the letters could not have been exchanged in jail as all meetings were supervised and both men were searched before and after each interaction.
