Three terrorists were shot dead on June 1-morning during an abortive attempt to storm the headquarters of Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh (RSS), a right-wing Hindu organization, at Nagpur in Maharashtra. Police said the terrorists, suspected to be from the Lashkar-e-Toiba (LeT), attempted to drive a white Ambassador car, fitted with a red command-light, towards the building shortly before dawn. When guards at the perimeter of the three-level security cordon flagged down the car, its driver attempted to crash through the barriers. RSS chief K.S. Sudarshan and other top functionaries were not present in the building at the time of the attack, according to The Hindu. The Mumbai-based Anti-Terrorism Squad (ATS) had information about the attack on the RSS headquarters in Nagpur and tipped off the Nagpur police about the same, which helped foil the attack, Times of India reported. ATS chief, Inspector-General of Police, K. P. Raghuvanshi, said, "We informed the Nagpur police." Deputy Chief Minister R. R. Patil told reporters that security at the RSS premises was then beefed up and RSS functionaries were warned about a possible attack. Meanwhile, intelligence sources in New Delhi reportedly said all three terrorists were thought to be Pakistani nationals, although no detail of their identities was available. "We had reason to believe that an operation of this kind was being planned and asked the Nagpur police to be prepared," an unnamed senior official said.

Prime Minister Manmohan Singh, speaking at a press conference in Mumbai, said that the serial blasts in Mumbai were carried out by terrorists with support from across the border, according to The Hindu. He further warned Pakistan that it would be difficult to carry forward the peace process if it did not control terrorist elements operating from its territory. Prime Minister said, “I have explained it to the government of Pakistan at the highest level that if the acts of terrorism are not controlled, it is exceedingly difficult for any government to carry forward what may be called as normalisation and peace process." Commenting on whether talks on confidence-building measures with Pakistan will continue, he added, “Pakistan, in 2004, had solemnly given an assurance that Pakistani territory will not be used to promote, encourage, aid and abet terrorist elements directed against India. That assurance has to be fulfilled before the peace process or other processes can make progress.”

The Anti-Terrorist Squad (ATS) of the Mumbai Police said on August 24 that the two Pakistani terrorists, one of whom was killed in an encounter on August 21, had plans to attack five places in Mumbai, including the Bhabha Atomic Research Centre at Anushakti Nagar and Siddhivinayak Temple, according to Press Trust of India. During interrogation, Mohammad Riaz Nawabuddin, who was arrested on August 21, has revealed that the duo was also planning to attack Western Railway line, Byculla and Bandra. "We have recovered a map from deceased Abu Osama’s place in Antop Hill in which the places have been highlighted. We suspect Siddhivinayak temple would also be on their list as the place where the temple is located has been marked as ‘SW’ on the map," ATS chief K P Raghuvanshi told reporters. Nawabuddin has disclosed that the duo had obtained training at a Jaish-e-Mohammed (JeM) camp in Pakistan, Raghuvanshi informed. He also said Osama had come to Mumbai three days before he was killed and Riaz was in Mumbai for the last "five-six" months.

According to The Hindu, on September 3, Mumbai Police said they were yet to verify Lashker-e-Toiba (LeT) operative Akmal Hashim's claim in a media interview that 17 terrorists were involved in the July 11 bomb blasts on commuter trains. Hashim had claimed that 17 men — some of them Kashmiris and the others from Pakistan — were involved in the bombings. He said all but one of the men had left Mumbai. Anti-Terrorism Squad (ATS) chief K.P. Raghuvanshi told reporters the agency had no confirmation yet of the claim. He said the only information they had at the moment was that Hashim was a Pakistani national and that he served in the Pakistan Army for a while. Meanwhile, a Mumbai court on September 3 remanded Hashim to ATS custody till September 13.

On September 8, forty people were reportedly killed and 65 others sustained injuries in three bomb explosions at Malegaon town in the Nashik district of Maharashtra. According to Daily News & Analysis, the first explosion occurred outside the Bada Kabristan, a burial ground at the heart of the old city. The area near the burial ground was crowded with people who had gathered to offer prayers on the occasion of Shab-e-Baraat (night of salvation). The second explosion took place near a mosque while the third occurred at Mushawarat Chowk. The explosives reportedly had been rigged to bicycles. According to The Hindu, many of those killed and injured were children. No group has claimed responsibility for the blasts thus far. Chief Minister Vilasrao Deshmukh described the blasts as "a terrorist act" but said he did not know who was responsible. After a high-level meeting, he said a broken bicycle, which might have been used to place the bomb, was found at Mushaira Chowk, apart from two packets.

According to Daily News and Analysis, narco-analysis tests on Tanvir Mohammad Ansari, Kamal Ansari, Faizal Shaikh, and Ehtesham Siddique, arrested in connection with the July 11 Mumbai train blasts, have revealed the Lashkar-e-Toiba’s (LeT) plans in the State of Maharashtra. On September 24, sources in the Anti-Terrorism Squad (ATS) of the Maharashtra Police said that the RDX used in the July 11 bombings could actually be a part of the consignment, some of which was seized in Aurangabad and Nashik in May 2006. An unidentified ATS officer said “The tests have confirmed that a part of that RDX consignment was routed back to the city to trigger 11/7.” Police now are in look out for two LeT terrorists, Zabiuddin Ansari and Faiyaz Kagzi, suspected to be involved in the attack. Both are believed to have fled the country through the Bangladesh border.

According to Daily News & Analysis, Mumbai police have claimed to have identified the modus operandi used in the July 11 blasts targeting the railway network in the city. Unidentified sources in the Anti-Terrorism Squad (ATS) said that the bombers had placed the bombs in pressure cookers fixed with timers, thus adding to the high intensity of the explosions. The cookers were hidden in leather bags, packed with old papers, to avoid identification. These bombs were put together in rented flats in Govandi on July 10. ATS sources said that among the 14 men who planted the bombs were Faizal Sheikh, Ehtesham Siddiqui, Kamal Ansari, and Tanveer Ansari, who are among the nine people arrested so far. Six men who provided logistical support for the operation have fled to Bangladesh and Pakistan.

The Mumbai Police has said that Pakistan's Inter-Services Intelligence (ISI) had conceived the July 11, 2006 terrorist attacks targeting the railway network in Mumbai, according to The Hindu. Police Commissioner, A. N. Roy, told the media on September 30 that the attack was planned and executed through the Lashkar-e-Toiba (LeT) and Jaish-e-Mohammed (JeM), which in turn used the Students Islamic Movement of India (SIMI) and their own modules. He said that 15 people have already been arrested of whom 12 were directly involved in the blasts. The principal conspirator of the attack has been identified as a LeT top functionary, Azam Cheema, who also runs a terrorist training camp at Bahawalpur in Pakistan. Many of those arrested had received training in the use of arms at Bahawalpur on more than one occasion, Roy said. He further said that Cheema's three executive planners in India were Faizal Sheikh, a resident of Mira Road near Mumbai, Kamaluddin Ansari, who was arrested from his home in Madhubani district of Bihar, and Ehtesham Siddiqui, Maharashtra secretary of SIMI and a resident of Mira Road. The police chief said that 11 Pakistani militants in three groups had reached India via three different routes — from Nepal in the north, Bangladesh in the east and from across the Gujarat border with Pakistan. One Pakistani died in an encounter with the police at Antop Hill on August 22. Nine of the 11 escaped and might have left the country, the police said.

According to Daily News & Analysis, the Inter-Services Intelligence (ISI), Pakistan’s external intelligence agency, had provided the Lashkar-e-Toiba (LeT)’s Pakistan-based commanders money worth INR Two million to execute the July 11, 2006-blasts in Mumbai. Officers of the Intelligence Bureau and Anti-Terrorism Squad officers (ATS) have said that this was disclosed to investigators by the men arrested in the case. Officers also said the tracing of the funds to foreign shores was the clearest proof of the ISI’s involvement in the attacks. They further said that the funds, which were routed through Hawala (illegal money transfer) channels in the form of Saudi Arabian Riyals (SAR), went into the planning and execution of the attacks. A portion of the money was also routed in the form of US dollars. The ATS had recovered SAR 26,000 from Faizal Shaikh when he was arrested. ATS chief K. P. Raghuvanshi said: “So far we have been able to peg the amount spent on planning and execution at INR Two million. The amount is tiny, but only 10 per cent of the funds are normally earmarked for operational purposes by any terrorist organisation. The other 90 percent, goes into “infrastructure spending” - to sustain communication, networks, and training facilities, and to protect operatives.” Meanwhile, Raghuvanshi claimed on October 2 that the police has averted another terrorist attack planned by the persons involved in the 7/11 bombings. Without providing details of the second attack, which was planned anywhere “in or around Mumbai”, an unidentified ATS source told Indian Express, “We were surprised to note that some accused arrested in the case had not left Mumbai even about three months after the attack. Normally accused either go underground or leave the city where an offence is committed.”

The intelligence agencies have claimed that they have ‘pretty good’ evidence of Pakistan’s involvement in the Mumbai blasts, which will be put on the table during the India-Pakistan foreign secretary level talks on November 13-15. Senior intelligence officials told Hindustan Times on November 8 that narco-analysis tests conducted on the arrested persons have revealed Pakistan’s role. Sources reportedly said, “The test was conducted on all the 15 arrested. But we found that the version of five among them very similar. Those five, we had also learnt, had gone to Pakistan.” The report further said, “The five not only gave similar versions about the training camp in Bahawalpur that they had visited, but also blurted out similar description of a man who was coordinating their training. It was apparent that they were describing the same person. The name of the person was Azam Cheema.”

The Maharashtra Director-General of Police, P. S. Pasricha, said on November 27 that the Malegaon bomb blasts case had been solved, reports Times of India. The DGP said that two Pakistani nationals, including one Muzammil, had manufactured the improvised explosive devices (IED) and assembled the four bombs. "The conspiracy was hatched in Malegaon on May 8 this year on the occasion of the wedding of Noor-ul-Huda, one of the accused. All eight persons arrested in this case are former SIMI [Students Islamic movement of India] members. The RDX was transported from Mumbai to Malegaon in the third week of July (after the 7/11 train bombings), and the bombs were made there", Pasricha said. He added that while eight SIMI activists have been arrested in connection with the blasts, an equal number are still at large. Both the Pakistani nationals are also to be arrested. Pasricha further said that while one of those arrested, Zahid Ali, planted the bomb at Mushawerat Chowk, Huda and his accomplice Raees Rajjab Ali planted bombs in the cemetery.
