The Maharashtra Anti-Terrorism Squad (ATS) while taking custody of Indian Mujahideen (IM) ‘India operations chief’ Yasin Bhatkal and his aide Asadullah Akhtar alias Shakir alias Daniel alias Haddi alias Tabrez on February 5, for his alleged role in July 13, 2011 (13/7) Mumbai (Maharashtra) serial blats, focused on two points in court: they intend to find out the source of hawala (illegal money transaction) money sent for the blasts and to establish that Yasin was a key IM man whose custodial interrogation was required, The Times of India reports on February 7. Moreover, a special Maharashtra Control of Organised Crime Act (MCOCA) court remanded Bhatkal in Police custody till February 18, 2014. Further, the National Investigation Agency (NIA) interrogation report to the Centre said that Yasin Bhatkal organized the attack on Delhi's Jama Masjid on September 19, 2010 as he was upset with tourists entering the mosque in skimpy clothes. However, he had not discussed the plan with Riyaz Bhatkal before the attack. It was only three days later that Yasin informed Riyaz about the attack.

Maharashtra Anti-Terrorism Squad (ATS) identified Indian Mujahideen (IM) ‘India operations chief’ Yasin Bhatkal as having extensively surveyed Police establishments and religious institutions in south Mumbai, apart from Juhu Beach and a branch of the fast-food chain McDonald’s located at the Andheri (West) railway station, for the July 13, 2011 (13/7) serial blasts, Indian Express reported on February 8. Along with Asadullah Akhtar, Tabrez, Tehseen Akhtar Shaikh, Waqas and Nadeem Akhtar Shaikh, Yasin did an extensive recce of the city, beginning February 2011, said Rakesh Maria, Additional Director General, ATS. “In addition to places where they planted the explosives, they also recceed Colaba Market, because of the number of foreign tourists it attracts, Mumbadevi Temple, Gol Deo Temple, and the offices of the director general of police, commissioner of police and ATS”, Maria added. Tabrez, Waqas and Tehseen are still at large. Police said Bhatkal also confessed to have initially planned to plant an explosive under a stationary Police van at Dadar flower market. On July 13, 2011, however, the van moved away just as Bhatkal and his co-conspirator Asadullah Akhtar walked towards it, said ATS officers. The duo then planted the explosive in a garbage bin in the flower market. Maria further said the plotters procured the explosives from Mangalore (Karnataka) a week before the blasts. The ATS had identified the shops from where they purchased nine mm volt batteries, Casio clocks, soldering machines, transistors, and a bow and arrow to complete the circuit. “Around six days before the blasts, they purchased four pressure cookers from two shops in Pydhonie and Ghatkopar. We have identified both of them,” said Maria. After the blasts, Bhatkal, Waqas and Tabrez returned to Habib Mansion in Nagpada, while Tehseen lived elsewhere, he said. Bhatkal is wanted in over 40 terror cases and will be interrogated by the ATS on the IM’s role in terror blasts in Maharashtra. Asian Age added that one of the members of this terror module, Waqas, alias Ahmed who is still at large, has been identified as a Pakistani national. IM’s co-founder Yasin Bhatkal and his aide Asadullah told the investigators about Waqas’ nationality on the first day of their interrogation. A senior ATS official, under anonymity, confirmed the revelation to our correspondent. “Waqas, a Pakistani national was even admitted to Sir J.J. Hospital after he went down with Malaria prior to the blast. Waqas used false identity at the hospital to hide the fact that he was from Pakistan. He even joined a local gym,” informed the officer.

The Maharashtra Anti-Terrorism Squad (ATS) officers claim that wanted accused Waqas Ahmed was not the only Pakistani roped by Indian Mujahideen (IM) for India operations as with most IM operative being arrested, the outfit has done a lot of recruitment of Pakistani nationals, dnaindia.com reports on February 12. Asadullah Akhtar, one of the planters in July 13, 2011 (13/7) Mumbai (Maharashtra) serial blasts case, has given ATS some valuable information about co-planter Waqas and IM's operation. "After 2008 Batla House encounter in Delhi, Asadullah fled to Bangladesh and then to Dubai. From Dubai he went to Karachi and was in touch with IM top brass, including Bhatkal brothers. In 2009, Asadullah was trained in Pakistan by the IM. It was in Pakistan that he met Waqas and was told that he would be part of the operations in India," said an ATS officer, requesting anonymity. Moreover, during the interrogation of IM ‘India operations chief’ Yasin Bhatkal and Asadullah Akhtar, Police learnt that they had conducted recce of Goa beaches before 13/7 triple blasts. "While Yasin had conducted a recce once, the second reconnaissance was carried out by Waqas and Asadullah. Goa beaches were on their target list because they were frequented by foreigners," said another ATS officer. Niticentral reports that IM is planning to carry out terror strikes at several historical and religious sites in Bihar like Nalanda and Bihar Sharif.

Sartaz Aziz, Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif's adviser on foreign affairs, on February 20 assured India that Islamabad was looking at expediting the November 26, 2008 (26/11) Mumbai (Maharashtra) terror attacks trial and that the whole process could be brought to an end in the next two months, reports The Times of India.
