Is I SIKHS STAY IN CELLS UNTIL GANDHI LEAVES By DAVID GRAVES THE Home Office confirmed last night that 11 men detained under the Prevention of Terrorism Act in connection with today's visit by Mr Rajiv Gandhi, the Indian Prime Minister, will remain in custody until he leaves tomorrow night. Mr Hurd, Home Secretary, granted five-day extensions to their detention orders on Saturday following the arrest of the eight Sikhs and three Kashmiris in a nationwide police operation the night before. His consent was necessary if they were to be held for more than 48 hours. Mr Gandhi will begin his first, official visit to Britain amid, heavy security. No details of his timetable during the 36-hour visit have been issued.

Everyone attending functions with him has been vetted Scotland Yard's antiterrorist branch The detained men were being held yesterday at police stations in London, the Midlands nd the north-west of England in connection with a possible plot to assassinate the Indian leader. 'P exercise A spokesman for the militant International Sikh Youth Federation, which had been planning protests against the visit, described the arrests as a public relations exercise to please Mr Gandhi and the Indian government. The three detained Kashmiris belonged to the extreme Kashmir Liberation Army two of whose members were jailed for life eight months ago at Birmingham for the murder of the Indian diplomat Mr Ravindra Mhatre. India's belief that Britain had not been tough enough with Sikh extremists in Britain was the major, reason for the cooling relations between the two countries over the last 12 months, but Whitehall hopes the arrests will help allay Indian fears. Mr Gandhi's visit is being viewed by both countries as a signal of restored goodwill and a token reopening of the traditionally close links between London and New Delhi.

will greet him personalhatcher Heathrow this Editorial Comment P14 morning in a move designed to emphasise that the special relationship she had with his asassinated mother is to be maintained with him. Before they fly off tomorrow to the Commonwealth conference in the Bahamas, they will have more than three hours of talks, during which Mr Gandhi is expected to emphasise that he feels Britain could still clamp down even more on Sikh extremists, and voice his concern over the recent racial violence in Britain in which Asionp have been killed and lost their homes and property. Another hot potato will be Mrs Thatcher's attitude to the imposition of economic sanctions against South Africa, which Mr Gandhi has forecast will isolate Britain at the Commonwealth conference. -Sir Geoffrey Howe, will meet four Ministers, Mr Heseltine and Mr Brittan- and attend lunch given by the Lord Mavor of London at the Mansion House. Visit to BAE The inclusion of Mr Hurd is designed to reassure Mr Gandhi about the way extremists are being dealt with, while the participation of Mr Heseltine and Brittan shows the importance being given to defence and trade issues.

India is poised to sign a £65 million deal to buy 21 Westland helicopters. while British Aerospace has high hopes of sealing negotiations for the sale of 11 Sea Harriers for the Indian Navy. and will push strongly the claims of the BAe 146 airliner during Mr Gandhi's visit to the BAe factory at Hatfield tomorrow. Trip 'most vital since Nehru met Attlee' By BALRAM TANDON in New Delhi MR GANDHI was due to fly out at the crack of dawn to begin what his advisers stress could be the most important risit any Indian head of government has made to London for 38 years. They were inclined to liken it Mr Nehru's first official visit to meet Mr Attlee after India became free.

They noted that in Nehru's case, as now, the visits oecurred with India at a turning point and about to decide many crucial issues. Mr Gandhi and Mrs Thatcher are not strangers, they stressed, just as Attlee and Nehru were friends before they met as Prime Ministers. The importance of the visit, according to those close to Mr Gandhi, lies in the fact that it comes when relations between India and Britain are on the mend. to Gandhi, and has Mrs. Thatcher has been warm generally soothed the irritants caused because of activities of Indian expatriates owing allegiance to extremist groups in Britain.

The Prime Minister favours televising proceedings, a change of heart which is certain to clinch a vote from MPs to allow a six-month television experiment.

Mrs Thatcher and many of her senior colleagues are now convinced that cameras in the Chamber will prove a bonus for the Government. They are keen that cameras should be in place for next year's Budget statement by the Chancellor, Mr Lawson, in which he is expected to announce tax cuts. Earlier support It was announced in May that Ministers were prepared to open negotiations with television authorities over the £2 million cost of technical equipment for the Commons experiment. Support for television from the top of Government will be crucial in gaining the go ahead. The debate will be in Government time.

When the Commons last voted on the issue in November 1983, MPs decided by 164 votes 159 to support a Private Member's Bill from Mr Austin Mitchell, Labour MP for Great Grimsby, and a former television journalist, calling for the televising of debates. the Government not asThe because failed, sist the Bill's passage through the House. Ministers felt that the narrow majority did not properly reflect the wishes of House. There is still much discussion as to which proceedings of the Commons would be acceptable for televising. Restrictions favoured Many favour the camera being restricted to major debates, statements by Ministers, and the twice-weekly sparring matches between Mrs Thatcher and Mr Kinnock at Prime Miniter's Questions.

But all such finer details would be subject to discussion during experimental broadcasts. Meanwhile the of Lords, which returns today, to discuss the Transport Bill, has agreed to continue its televising experiment for a further six months. ATTACKERS BURN FLEEING MAN By Our Johannesburg Correspondent A mob attacked a black man's home on Zwelitemba township in the eastern Cape, doused him in petrol as fled and burned him to death. police said.

At their group meeting. the Haringey Labour councillors voted to re-issue an extended version of a statement last Tuesdav-but without the passage threatening to withhold the police precept.

Racist reaction' The statement. which now includes bitter condemnation of biased press coverage of recent events. and the events emotive and racist reactions expressed by speakers at last week's Conservative party conference will go before tonight's council meeting as a Labour motion. It says in part. The callous treatment of Mrs Jarrett and the killing of Pc Blakelock are both inexcusable acts.

This council recognises the wish of the peoples we represent to live fear. It believes that petrol bombing, shooting and stone-throwing are no answer to the legitimate grievances of black and white people in Tottenham. The only solution is a political one-to end this Government's policies of misery at the next general election by replacing it with a Labour Government. The statement says 66 the trigger for the events" was "insensitive and racist 79 policy. It criticises: The use of the powers of stop and search in the Police and Criminal Evidence Act 1984.

The suspension, of the officers both concerned in and responsible for the raid on Mrs Jarrett's home.

Compensation from the Government for residents. An assurance that CS gas and plastic bullets will never be used by the police. Housing cuts The statement adds: "We call on the Secretary of State for the Environment and the Shadow Secretary of State to visit Tottenham in order to view the effects in the area of Government policies, including the withdrawal of rate-support grant, cuts in housing, capital allocations and of programme status, under the urban programme." After reading the statement, Mr Grant walked back into the Civic Centre and was later driven away by a friend. A council spokesman said he had no intention of commenting reports in Sunday newspapers that Mr Grant had left his wife and three children and was now living with Sharon Lawrence, white chair" of the Labour group and the women's committee. Meanwhile, the council em phasised that Mr Grant had no direct involvement in the award of a £45,850 grant to a Caribrestaurant in Crouch End, opened in May by a worker-co-operative including his sister, Rosamund.

A spokesman said Mr Grant not on the committee which approved the funding for the Bambava retaurant, one. of a number of projects considered by the borough's economic development unit in the wake of the Scarman report. There is no question of any impropriety, whatsoever," he added.

Continued from Page 1 By FRANK TAYLOR White House protest ton adequate time to make their case for Abbas's detention. Mr Webster said he understood that Abbas was in the PLO embassy 39 in Belgrade and that he would probably move along." He was travelling on an Iraqi diplomatic passport. A warrant issued in a Federal court in Washington on Friday, and conveyed to the Italians the same day, charged him with taking, piracy and conspiracy. An expert in international law said, however, that it was doubtful piracy charge could succeed as no other vessel was involved in the hijack. The Italian government had replied to the American move by saying its judicial authorities did not consider the evidence offered as sufficient to warrant the continued detention of Abbas.

One American official was quoted as saying: 66 The Italians have good relations with the and Arab countries, including. Libya, and they want to maintain them. They want to have it both ways." Relations with Cairo strained The American action in forcing the Egyptian airliner carryfour Achille Lauro hijackers to an air base in Sicily on Thursday continues to put a strain on relations with Cairo. Reagan aides were dismayed by the bitter statement on Saturday by President Mubarak, although it was not entirely unexpected. They also recognise Mr Mubarak's domestic political problems.

Mr Mubarak's chief political adviser, Mr Osama El Baz, said in an American television interview yesterday that while Cairo was upset incident was a "passing cloud on the horizon of our relations." He maintained that last Thursday Yasser Arafat. the leader, had assured Egypt Printed and Published by THE 135, Fleet Street, London. EC4P 4BL, and Registered as a newspaper 3 ment in industry. At a meeting in Delhi in the Spring he extended an open invitation to enterpreneurs to come to India and see where they could invest. At the weekend he went further, denouncing the private sector in India for being lazy and exploitative and for neglecting research and ment.

One subject Mr Gandhi will pursue seriously is an exploraof ways in which India can increase its exports to Britain and cut down the balance of payments gap of £400 million. That gap could grow with the Indian armed forces looking round in British factories for weapons systems. But Delhi officials stress that their Prime Minister is not going on a shopping spree. At best such sales will be touched upon in talks with Mrs Thatcher and taken up. later official level discussions.

YOUTHS STABBED Two youths are in hospital following a fight between gangs in Orpington. Three youths were stabbed outside a restaurant in the High Street, and two of them, Victor Barrow, 23, and Paul Chapman, 21, are in a critical condition. that the four hijackers would be tried for their crimes and that this was the basis on which Egypt had decided to release them. Asked what he thought of Abbas being freed by the Italians, won't Mr El disappear Baz replied: planet." He would be reachable and, if the investigation found that he was involved in the hijack, we can take up the issue with Arafat." FREE MAN' Yugoslav view Staff, writes: Yugoslavia has indicated that it will reject an American request for the extradition of Mohammed Abbas. The Information Ministry in Belgrade said yesterday that Abbas, leader of the small Palestine Liberation Front, whose members seized the liner last Tuesday, had arrived in Yugoslavia a free man after his release by Italy.

Abbas helped negotiate an end to. a jack that Washing. ton believes planned and he aboard the Egyptian 737 when U.S. fighters forced it to land at a Nato base in Sicily on Friday night. Asked about the interception Abbas said: "The jets fired warning shots and missiles on both sides of our plane.

They appeared determined to shoot the plane down." Questioned about American efforts to have him detained along with the four hijackers who now face trial in Italy he said: "It was difficult to get out of Italy. I practically had to. escape from there." Although the Palestine Liberation Front allied itself with PLO leader Yasser Arafat during, three years of feuding have split the PLO, Abbas, also known as Abu Khaled, is an opponent of Arafat's negotiating agreement with Jordan.
