Quepem police station has become an acutely contested space between the agitating Colamb villagers and the Goa Police. According to latest information received at 5.55 pm none of the Colamb villagers have been formally arrested. Police are trying to convince the Colamb villagers on legal necessity for law to arrest Colamb People. Actually it is a dire necessity to the badly bruised Fomento mining company to get some breath of relief. Relief to Fomentos actually means poison and destruction to Colamb and to Goa.
Colamb villagers are arguing as to why Fomento mining company - Infrastructure Logistics Private Limited (ILPL) manager is not arrested in spite of written complaints by the Colamb villagers. Police say that they are processing this matter too. Villagers however are not happy with the pace of the processing by Goa Police and wonder whether Fomentos will ever brought to justice for destroying their fields and water bodies. Fomentos are being battled against not only by Colamb and Advalpal but also by villagers in Kulan near Sindadurg in Maharastra too. Gawda, Kunbi, Velip and Dhangar Federation (GAKUVED) President Durgadas Gaonkar has strongly condemned the arms twisting techniques on Colamb villagers and wondered if there has been coup'd tat in home ministry and Ravi Naik has been kicked out as the home minister of Goa and has been taken over by Avadooth Timblo, the Fomento mining company boss.
