West Bengal on January 8, was put on special alert following the arrest of some Pakistani Inter Services Intelligence (ISI) agents from Siliguri and its vicinity. Chief Minister Buddhadev Dasgupta, while speaking to the media in Kolkata, said, "These ISI arrests from Siliguri and its surrounding areas in the last two days had provided a lot of vital information about their spying network in North Bengal". These were important developments and fresh arrests followed in the region to bust the network, he said. Police sources said under the special alert in North Bengal, police posting had been made in vulnerable areas and more forces deployed in West Bengal’s border with neighbouring countries. Police has also been directed to step up extra vigil and keep watch on vital installations prior to the Republic day celebrations.

A Dubai-based criminal with links to the Inter Services Intelligence (ISI), Pakistani external intelligence agency, has reportedly claimed responsibility for the January 22 terrorist attack on the American Centre in Calcutta. He has also reportedly threatened to execute more such attacks in New Delhi and Gujarat. Media reports have indicated that officials in Kolkata received a telephone call from Farhan Malik, who is based in Dubai and is linked, to the Harkat-ul-Jehad-e-Islami (HuJI), a Pakistan-based terrorist outfit. Reports quoting official sources said that Malik in March 2000 was issued a Pakistani passport and was reportedly directed to establish a covert network in India to carry out terrorist operations. Malik is allegedly involved in underworld crime and also organized the abduction earlier this year of a Calcutta businessman for a 37.5 million-rupee ransom. Sources added that in August 2001, Malik was in contact with Omar Sheikh, an Al Qaeda terrorist, who was released in exchange for passengers of an Indian Airlines plane hijacked in December 1999 to Kandahar, Afghanistan.

Aftab Ansari is reported to have called up West Bengal's Inspector General of Police Partha Bhattacharya four hours after the attack and claimed that the attack was revenge for the killing of Asif Reza Khan. Khan, who had abducted Kolkata businessman Partha Roy Burman, was killed in an encounter on December 7, 2001. Reports added that Rs 47 lakh of the Rs 4 crore ransom extracted from Burman was wired to Mohammad Atta, to help fund the September 11 attacks. Both Reza Khan and Ansari had connections with the proscribed Pakistan-based terrorist outfit Jaish-e-Mohammed (JeM). The money reportedly reached Atta via Omar Sheikh, one of the terrorists released in Kandahar, Afghanistan, after the IC 814 hijacking in December 1999. Sheikh is a Pakistan-based cadre of the Al Qaeda terror network of Osama bin Laden. Reza Khan, reportedly an activist of the proscribed Students Islamic Movement of India (SIMI), had also been a Hizb-ul –Mujahideen (HM) cadre.

US President George W Bush has condemned the January 22 terrorist attack on the American Centre in Kolkata and said that all countries must "work together to fight off terrorists" to ensure people's safety. Bush indicated to press personnel during a trip to West Virginia that he was not sure if the attack - in which no Americans were killed or injured - was targeted at the US or provoked by a grievance against local police. "We're gathering more information about it, to find out exactly what the facts are. Terror is terror, however -- it doesn't matter whether it's an attack on US or an attack on other people. You have got to work together to fight off terrorists," he said.

A media report quoting intelligence sources has indicated that the Asif Reza Commando Force (ARCF), one of the two outfits that has claimed responsibility for January 22 terrorist attack on the American Centre in Kolkata was raised sometime in the third week of December 2001. According to intelligence sources, the ARCF was probably raised at a village populated by illegal migrants from Bangladesh along the Indo-Bangladesh border in the Malda district of West Bengal. The sources said that the ARCF is an adjunct of the Harkat-ul-Jehadi-e-Islami (HuJI), a Pakistan-based terrorist outfit that has links with Pakistan's external intelligence agency, Inter-Services Intelligence (ISI). As reported earlier, the HuJI has also claimed responsibility for the attack. Sources added that certain HuJI leaders upon entry into Malda through Bangladesh are reported to have met some fundamentalist activists of the proscribed Students' Islamic Movement of India (SIMI) there and floated the idea of forming a front outfit of the HuJI. The HuJI is reported to have sent some of its experienced cadres to the ARCF.
