...swashbuckling Bollywood image doesn't hurt either: Veerappan favors camouflage gear, sports a long, twirled mustache and is rarely seen without his rifle. It was his audacious kidnapping of popular south Indian film star Raj Kumar last year that catapulted the 54-year-old forest bandit from local Robin Hood to the world stage. Veerappan's mysterious release of the celebrity after 108 days of headlines and hype?apparently with no demands met?only added to his aura and provided grist to rumors of secret government payoffs.

It sounds harmless, but some refused on the grounds that it was wrong for the group to enforce "political correctness." Shortly thereafter, Foreign Secretary Robin Cook suggested - to some derision - that Britain's multicultural success was shown by chicken tikka masala becoming the country's most popular dish.
