Kathi Lynn Austin, the American executive director of CAP, wrote about the formation of a new aircraft chartering company in Mauritius to enable activities of Viktor Bout, an international arms trafficker.
Swaleha Joomun, who left Mauritius in 2003 with her 3 daughters to resettle in England, thus triggered a third round of investigations 19 years after the incident.
In 2000 the "star witness" Khadafi Oozeer alleged that one week prior to the shootings Shakeel Mohamed had a confrontation with Babal Joomun regarding their rival parties' propaganda posters.
[20][21][22][23][24][25][26][27] As a senior representative of the Labour Party in Parliament in October 2017, Shakeel Mohamed vehemently protested in writing to the Prime Minister's Office (PMO) to deny entry to Yogi Adityanath, the Chief Minister of Uttar Pradesh who was chosen by the Government of India to be official guest of the Government of Mauritius at the 183rd anniversary commemoration of the Indian Arrival Day.
Shakeel Mohamed criticized Yogi Adityanath's affiliation, claiming that the official guest founded the Hindu Yuva Vahini and would disturb Mauritians' way of life.
However, Prime Minister Pravind Jugnauth ignored Mohamed's outburst of Hinduphobia and Yogi Adityanath's official visit went ahead without any disturbance.
During a speech at a public gathering in Petit Raffray, Yogi Adiyanath confirmed that India will continue to support Mauritius during the best and the worst circumstances.
However, Shakeel Mohamed denied that he had given such advice, instead blamed the police and said that he was sitting in the National Assembly at the time when the meeting occurred at the Pamplemousses petrol station.
[32][33][34][35][36] In October 2024, a few days after the announcement of the November 2024 General Elections Shakeel Mohamed admitted that he had posted an offensive video on his Facebook social media page, depicting Hindu goddess Durga, alongside bottles of whisky and a pig's head in his attempt to ridicule and harass Hindu members of the ruling MSM government, and to gain political mileage by arousing Hinduphobia.
During a live interview with journalist Patrick Hilbert, Shakeel Mohamed revealed that despite this incident Navin Ramgoolam did not want him to withdraw from the 2024 General Elections.
