Below is the photo of Peter Bleach and other accused in Jail.
All the seven accused person who dropped illegal arms in India were arrested except Kim Davy
who escaped from airport.
The Court found all of them Guilty and gave them Life Imprisonment.
Peter Bleach - British citizen – was a Special Air Service operative turned mercenary who was based in Yorkshire and involved in arms dealing
Mr Bleach, who ran an arms supply company called Aeroserve UK.
Antonov An-26 aircraft a Latvian aircraft dropped a large consignment of arms including several hundred AK-47 rifles and more than a million rounds of ammunition over a large area in Jhalda, Ghatanga, Belamu, Maramu villages of Purulia district
After few days again the same plane reentered into the Indian Territory airspace it was intercepted by the Indian Air Force MiG-21 and forced to land in Mumbai.
Then he was arrested. He was accused of parachuting crates of assault rifles, rocket launchers and grenades from a cargo plane.
Mr Bleach says he told his local North Yorkshire Police Special Branch about the planned delivery in August 1995 - as soon as he discovered it was illegal.
That time it was said that arms were intended for the socio-spiritual organization Ananda Marga (Sanskrit for "The Path of Bliss").
December 17, 1995
An Antonov AN 26 Latvian Aircraft carrying Peter Bleach, Kim Peter Davy, a five-member Latvian crew and a still-at-large South African - Daya M. Anand alias Deepak, flies into India from Karachi. The plane lands at Varanasi airport and refuels.
The Aircraft stays parked at Varanasi Airport for over seven hours while Davy, Deepak and Latvian cargo handler tie the crates containing weapons to cargo parachutes.
Mysteriously there is no move to seize the plane despite intelligence from Britain on three occasions of an imminent arms drop
December 18 1995 –
The plane digresses from an approved flight path and drops its deadly cargo over Jhalda in Purulia district.
Strangely the Radar at a local IAF air base doesn’t catch the straying plane. Some say the radar was switched off. The Plane then rejoins the approved flight path and lands for refueling at Calcutta Airport. Mysteriously there is no move to seize it despite prior information
1995 - British authorities informed to the Indian authorities in November 1995, five weeks before the arms drop took place.
December 19-21, 1995 –
Sahar Airport ATC is alerted by the Air Force in Delhi that a plane is flying over its territory without authorization. Fear of collision with incoming aircraft prompts ATC Sahar to ask the AN-26B to land.
The Customs, ignorant of the Purulia case, nab Bleach and five others on charges of hiding the seventh person - Kim Davy, who is named in the flight manifest but is already missing. Davy claims he had jumped the wall of the airport and made a break.
Over the next three days Kim Davy and the others stay in Puket in Thailand. While there they get approval for return flight to Karachi flying over Indian Air space touching at Calcutta. This despite an IB Alert at all Indian Airports detailing call sign and description of the aircraft
July 1993 – BBC news reported that In Delhi there was a Congress government and in West Bengal there was a Communist government and the two are not the best of friends.
"And I think somebody saw this report from the British and I think it's possible somebody decided to take advantage of this."
An armed insurgency in West Bengal would have allowed Delhi to have impose direct rule on the state and oust the ruling Communists.
Peter Bleach and the aircrew - two of whom are seriously ill - face a trial that experts say could last for ten years, since there are hundreds of witnesses to be heard.
After six months of sporadic hearings, the trial has heard from just six witnesses.
Mr Bleach tells the programme: "I'm not guilty. I've seen it said in the newspapers that it would be a shame if I hang for my naivety.
"I don't think it should be naive to report a terrorist incident and expect the police to do something about it. But apparently it is.
"I think it's extraordinary that you can obey the law and end up in jail for reporting a terrorist incident."
The programme also says the man behind the plot, Niels Christian Nielson, used the stolen identity of Kim Davy throughout his dealings with Peter Bleach.
He also forced Mr Bleach onto the plane which dropped the arms.
Nielson, a Dane, is a 'monk' in the Ananda Marga, and is one of Interpol's most wanted men.
The international force says he has 46 known aliases, and is wanted for questioning in a number of countries about smuggling, money laundering and forgery.
Investigations by the BBC have revealed that the arms were on their way to a religious sect called Ananda Marga.
The organisation carries out humanitarian aid in some of the world's poorest areas, but has a darker side. It is based in West Bengal and for years has been at odds with the Communist government there.

What exactly happened in this case is no one knows.
