Indian Police Service investigator Syed Abdul Kader shared two videos exclusively with DailyMail.com, which track the bright lights making ‘zigzags’ above the facility.

Fearing the craft was not manmade, Kader turned to his nation’s leading UFO expert, who in 2019 filed a peтιтion to the Supreme Court of India with the backing of former Pentagon officials and US Air Force vets — urging the south Asian nation to take all the unexplained sightings near its nuclear facilities more seriously.

Kader’s UFO encounters add international heft to domestic national security concerns within the US, following detailed Pentagon and civilian research into an eerie correlation between UFO sightings and America’s тιԍнтly held nuclear arsenal.

While the shape, size and speed of Kader’s mystery objects are difficult to discern, his footage shows them making unusual movements at the alтιтude of an airplane.

‘It’s shaking when it’s moving! It’s going up and down,’ the confused cop narrates in one video, watching the UFO’s bizarre and apparently non-aerodynamic maneuvers.

‘The way it’s moving,’ he opines in the video, ‘this could never be an airplane.’

.

‘It’s in a southern direction,’ Kader told his wife during the August 8th sighting.

‘It’s standing [or hovering] in the direction of the Koodankulam Nuclear Power Plant.’

‘It is always coming in at this time, when it is not too dark, nor too bright,’ Kader’s wife can be heard saying. ‘I’ve seen this many times.’

While it is difficult for an outside observer to discern if the UFO is moving, or if Kader’s camera is unsteady, DailyMail.com can report that some common prosaic explanations can likely be ruled out.

Such sightings have turned out to be distant planets, like Venus that is the third brightest object in the sky, after the sun and moon.

And the bright ‘dog star,’ Sirius, as well as the planets Jupiter and Mercury have also been occasionally misreported as UFOs.

However, in Kader’s August 8 video, filmed at dusk (7:30PM local time), the eastern direction of the UFO at sunset refutes the notion that a common bright planet or star could explain the mystery’s eerie aerial glow.

A sky map for that night and time, geolocated to the Kaders’ hometown of Tirunelveli via TheSkyLive.com shows that Venus was completely obscured, below the western horizon and below the sunset.

Most other bright stars and planets were also not in the eastern sky at that moment.

At another point in the video, Kader’s wife exclaims, ‘It’s so close. How come no one else is seeing this?’

To which Kader replies, ‘No, that’s why the DGP [Director General of Police] he, himself, has seen it [the UFOs]. And that’s why everybody’s talking about this.’

In fact, the Kaders’ sightings to the south overlapped with weeks of others in July and August up India’s east coast along the Neelankarai-Mahabalipuram shoreline.

That region, near the bustling city of Chennai, is home to the Madras Atomic Power Station (MAPS) in Kalpakkam.

Kader’s mysterious UFO videos were first secured by one of India’s foremost UFO investigators, Sabir Hussain, director of the Indian Society for UFO Studies (INSUFOS) based in Chennai.

It was Hussain who peтιтioned the Supreme Court of India in 2019 warning that casually dismissing reports of UFO activity near the nation’s sensitive atomic power sites could risks an unintentional nuclear war between India and its uneasy neighbor Pakistan.

His efforts came with letters endorsing his peтιтion, by former US counterintelligence official and Pentagon UFO investigator Lue Elizondo, US Air Force veteran Robert Salas, and other UFO experts from America and Europe.

‘Syed came to my house,’ Hussain told DailyMail.com. ‘I debriefed him.’

‘He told me that most of the time, [the UFO] was either coming from the direction of Kudankulam Nuclear Power Plant, going towards it, or stationary in that direction.’

Officer Kader, Hussain told DailyMail.com, also stated that the UFOs were sometimes spotted hovering above the nearby Indian Space Research Organization’s (ISRO) Propulsion Complex.

Nestled alongside the mountainous Mahendragiri hill in the state of Tamil Nadu, the ISRO Propulsion Complex tests cryogenically stored rocket fuel among its other space program duties.

The ISRO facility is also approximately one hour’s drive south of the Kaders’ home, which is in the city of Tirunelveli in Tamil Nadu.

A vocal advocate on the UFO issue, Hussain once voiced his suspicion that alleged alien occupants of such craft cut communications between ISRO and its Chandrayaan-2’s Vikram lander in 2019 — for the south Asian nation’s own good.

‘The extra-terrestrials have sent a message to the Indian government to get rid of your nukes before you explore other worlds,’ Hussain told the Deccan Chronicle.

‘You will not be allowed to land on the moon unless “they” decide to allow you.’

The fate of ISRO’s Vikram lander aside, Hussain’s new UFO witnesses, sub-inspector Kader and his wife, can at least be heard in their videos discussing the mysterious aerial phenomena’s consistent apparent interest in the Kudankulam nuclear plant.

Kader’s video-taped sightings, as Hussain told DT Next, ‘happened just 10 days after former DGP [Director General of Police] Prateep V. Philip took pictures of a UFO on [the] Muttukadu sea shore near Chennai.’

Philip’s rank of DGP is the highest position attainable in the Indian Police Service.

Hypothetical extraterrestrial interest in the Kudankulam nuclear plant, if correct, would join decades of active protests against the plant by concerned local civilians.

Thousands of local residents faced teargas shelling, imprisonment and prosecution under both terrorism and sedition charges by local police for speaking out against the nuclear energy plant. Even children with the protestors faced sedition charges.

In September of 2019 the Kudankulam nuclear plant was discovered to be infected with malware, which one cyber security analyst with CSO attributed to ‘a false flag operation using stolen North Korean code to muddle attribution.’

Hussain told DailyMail.com that the plant has faced corruption charges and safety concerns since before it first became operational a decade ago.

‘Kudankulam, which is a focus of our attention,’ Hussain said, ‘came online only in 2013 after Fukushima disaster happened.’

‘Ever since it came online, it has been shutting down once every two months,’ he added. ‘They are working only to 30 percent of their capacity. So you do the math.’

DailyMail.com has reached out to the Indian government’s Nuclear Power Corporation of India, Ltd., which runs the plant, for comment.

One email showed AARO staff contacting former US Air Force ICBM launch officer Robert Salas to gather information about his chilling encounter with an orange flying disc that inexplicably turned off 10 warheads at Malmstrom Air Force Base, Montana in 1967.

Another former officer, Dr. Robert Jacobs, also briefed AARO, testifying to a 35mm film he sH๏τ for the Air Force in 1964, which allegedly caught a flying saucer shooting a test missile out of the sky.

Although Salas described those early interactions with AARO officials as ‘very magnanimous,’ this month the disappointed Air Force veteran described the Pentagon office’s most recent UFO report as ‘a ‘Steaming pile of …’

‘I gave AARO a two hour PowerPoint presentation on the Malmstrom AFB incidents where twenty ICBMs were disabled during UFO encounters,’ Salas said on the social media site X, speaking to incidents at the base beyond 1967.

‘The USGOV owes us, the informed public, much more respect on this subject,’ he concluded, ‘than offered by AARO’s steaming pile of insults.’
