Policemen across Mumbai will now be trained in handling the situation effectively at terror sites in case of an attack till well-trained personnel take charge, reports Outlook. Talking about a plan in the pipeline, Arup Patnaik, Police Commissioner, said on January 10, "On terror front, we want to train our men at 90 Police Stations so that they immediately reach the spot and handle the situation till teams from elite units such as Force One and National Security Guards arrive." He said the lower-run Policemen, who will be the first responders, will also be equipped with advanced weapons soon. The 40,000-strong Police Force already has Quick Response Teams, mandated to immediately reach the terror spot and take positions till commandos arrive. According to a recent intelligence report, the Lashkar-e-Toiba (LeT) in association with Indian Mujahideen (IM) is planning to carry out attacks in Mumbai and Delhi in near future.

The Maharashtra anti-terrorism squad (ATS) said that Indian Mujahideen (IM) is a creation of Pakistan's Inter Service Intelligence (ISI), reports The Times of India. This was mentioned in the 13/7 triple blasts charge sheet. This is the first time that any police agency in the country has openly said that IM has been created by the ISI. Several police agencies had earlier said that IM was a splinter faction of the Students' Islamic Movement of India (SIMI), which was banned in 2001. The IM was banned on June 2, 2010. In its 4,478-page charge sheet against the four arrested accused filed before a special Maharashtra Control of Organised Crimes Act (MCOCA) court on May 25, the ATS said, "The IM has been expressly created by (the) ISI of Pakistan ostensibly to spread terror in this country through Indian front outfits."

The officers of the Maharashtra anti-terrorism squad (ATS) interrogating Indian Mujahideen (IM) operative Mohammed Kafeel Ahmed, in connection with July 13, 2011 (13/7) triple blasts in the city, have said that he is the key conduit in what is believed to be a well-spread out hawala (illegal money transfer) network that channels underworld money to the terror group. Kafeel, the caretaker of a local mosque and well-versed with scriptures, travelled across the country to spot and train fresh recruits into the IM cadre, ATS officials said. The interrogation has also revealed that Kafeel knows how the INR 3.75 crore ransom collected in the 2001 kidnapping of shoe baron Partho Roy Burman in West Bengal was routed through hawala channels. The Intelligence Bureau (IB) and Research and Analysis Wing (RAW) believe that the money was used to fund the 9 /11 World Trade Centre attack in US, as well as the attack on the American Center at Kolkata in 2002, and that the kidnapping was carried out by persons who went on to form the home-grown IM. His interrogation has revealed over a dozen names that play a crucial role in the IM set up. Kafeel, along with Muzaffar Kola could throw light on terror financing through hawala networks, said police sources. Kola, whom the ATS alleges to be the key person who channelled INR 10 lakh to 13/7 mastermind Yasin Bhatkal through his hawala network, was also involved in the transfer of ransom money in the Burman case.

Home Ministry issued an alert on the possibility of a terror strike by Lashkar-e-Toiba (LeT) modules in the coming weeks, reports Oneindia.in. The alert was issued to both the Mumbai Police and the Odisha Government. There were reports on June 21, which mentioned the possibility of terror strikes by terrorist groups, but the Home Ministry on June 22, stated that their alert was based on inputs received from Assam Police with chances of LeT targeting the Puri Rath Yatra in Odisha. The fact that the LeT has been recruiting Assamese youth for terrorist activities since 2001 unravelled the gravity of the situation. Security agencies are taking into consideration this fact and heightened alert. The LeT is understood to be remarkably expanding their base in the North East, especially the Bangladesh border areas that have seen many insurgent activities. The terror alert has been communicated to all State Police officials and has also warned of a possible strike by the LeT in Mumbai (Maharashtra) as well. With the real plan for the strike yet to be known, the security officials are on an overdrive to find out the possible target of the group.

The Pune Police commissioner Gulabrao Pol have denied the August 1 attack to be a terror attack; however, Anti -Terrorism Squad (ATS) suspect it to be work of Indian Mujahideen (IM), reports DNA India. The top police and ATS officials who spoke on condition of anonymity said, “The blasts might have been engineered by Indian Mujahideen to give a message that the outfit is still active and can pull out an operation in the city although Quateel Siddiqui, an alleged IM operative and a suspect in German Bakery blast, has been murdered.” “Terror groups have been trying to target places owned by multi nationals or frequented by foreigners. This has been noticed during the 26/11 Mumbai terror attack too. Even German Bakery was frequented by foreigners and was located in close vicinity of Chhabad House. In the present case, both McDonalds and KFC are USA based,” officials said. According to Rediff.Com report, bicycle has once again become the vehicle of terror after the August 1 Pune blast suggests the use of bicycle to carry out attack. The use of a bicycle to plant a bomb has also been witnessed during the Ahmadabad, Delhi, Malegaon blasts and also the Uttar Pradesh court blasts. Initially, the use of bicycles to plant bombs was seen mostly in Assam, which even led the administration to moot the idea of registering bicycles. Security agencies also feel that it is safer to use bicycle bomb than a car bomb, since a bicycle does not require any registration, and hence, leave no trail. A person could easily get a bicycle with no documents, plant the bomb and leave.

The revelation of his involvement in the latest terror attack came after interrogation of 23 persons accused of rioting in Mumbai this month. The arrested people have revealed that he had instructed the participants to target media personnel and their vans outside the venue of the protest by the Muslims. Nachan is an accused in the 1985 Kanishka plane crash and a prime accused in 2003 suburban train bombings at Mulund in Mumbai.

One of the morphed video clips used to instigate a section of the crowd before the August 11 riots at Azad Maiden, Mumbai (Maharashtra) is a six-year-old footage that Indian Mujahideen (IM) members have been showing to lure youths into joining the terror outfit, says Police probing the case, reports The Times of India on August 23.
