The National Investigating Agency (NIA) on February 16 filed the final charge sheet in a special court in Kochi against 24 accused, including a Pakistan national, in the "Kashmir terror recruitment” case, relating to enrolment of several youths from Kerala for anti-national activities, reports Daily Excelsior. The case against the accused, including Pakistani national Wali Abdul Rahiman, was that they had conspired with the Lashkar-e-Toiba (LeT) and recruited several youths from Kerala to carry out anti-national activities in Jammu and Kashmir. The youths, recruited in 2006, were given armed training in terrorist modules to wage war against India, the charge sheet said. Wali, the main link between the LeT and the Keralites, has been absconding while four youths recruited from northern districts of Kerala, died in encounters with security forces in 2008. So far 10 persons had been arrested in the case while the absconding included the first accused Abdul Jaleel from Kerala. The accused included four youths killed in encounters with the Security Force personnel in October 2008 and T. Nazir, who is now in jail in connection with the Bangalore bomb blasts case.

Sangai Express reports that arrested United National Liberation Front (UNLF) ‘chairman’ Sanayaima alias RK Meghen was produced before the Special Court of National Investigation Agency (NIA) at Guwahati on March 7. Talking to media persons inside the court complex, arrested UNLF ‘chairman’ reacted strongly to the remarks of Union Home Secretary GK Pillai who is quoted to have said in media that militant outfits have shown interested in talks after many leaders including Meghen have been arrested. In this regard, Meghen retorted, ‘‘we have never said we are interested in talks, nor they have made any offer’ and the stand of UNLF is right to self determination of the people of Manipur who firmly believe in the proposal of plebiscite announced by UNLF in 2005. The growing demand of the people for holding plebiscite to resolve the Manipur-India conflict is appreciable. So, there is no question of any talks with India from the side of UNLF".

According to India Express, Security Forces (SFs) during October 2008 operations in Jammu and Kashmir found that four Lashkar-e-Toiba (LeT) militants killed in a series of encounters were from Kerala. Subsequently, they learnt that the group had a fifth member, who managed to escape. The revelation set the Police and later the National Investigation Agency (NIA) on a trail that showed how the LeT was recruiting youths from Kerala, training them in Kerala and in Hyderabad of Andhra Pradesh, and then using them for operations in Jammu and Kashmir. Three years on, the NIA has retraced much of the trail with information from two suspected LeT militants from Jammu and Kashmir. Unnamed except as A and B, they have disclosed the identity of the LeT leader who allegedly supervised the recruitment. A and B are mentioned as witnesses in the NIA charge sheet submitted recently in a Special Court in Kochi in Kerala. They were examined under Section 164 of the Criminal Procedure Code (Cr. PC). According to the charge sheet, they have named Wali alias Rashid Abdullah, Baitullah Mujahideen of LeT training camp in Muzaffarabad of Pakistan occupied Kashmir (PoK), as having supervised the recruitments. A and B claim to have attended a jihadi (Holy War) training camp with Wali and the Kerala youths at Lolab forest in Kupwara District.

National Investigation Agency (NIA) has put All Party Hurriyat Conference-Geelani (APHC-G) chairman Syed Ali Shah Geelani under the scanner, following investigations of Inter Services Intelligence (ISI) funding for separatists in Jammu and Kashmir (J&K). The NIA has filed a charge sheet saying that a key aide of Geelani had supplied INR 45.7 million of slush funds from the ISI in Pakistan to the separatists in J&K for secessionist and terror activities. Sources in the Home Ministry say that though NIA has not named Geelani as an accused in their charge sheet, a "further probe" is on into his role. The main accused in the charge sheet is Ghulam Mohammad Bhat, whom the NIA has identified as the "legal advisor" of the APHC-G and Geelani's close aide. Three other J& K residents - Mohd Siddiqui Ganai, Ghulam Jilani Lilo and Farooq Ahmed Dagga - were charge sheeted last week too. NIA has also identified a Hizb-ul-Mujahedeen (HM) ‘commander’ in Pakistan, Maqbool Pandit, who the NIA claims sent INR 45.7 million since 2008 from Pakistan to a contact of Bhat in Delhi by Hawala. This is the same case in which Delhi Police special cell sleuths had waylaid Geelani near the Delhi Airport on March 1, and had questioned him on his links with Bhat. Geelani was then trying to leave for Srinagar without heeding to a request from the Delhi Police to meet them in connection with this case.

A close aide of All Parry Hurriyat Conference-Geelani (APHC-G) leader Syed Ali Shah Geelani is among four persons charge sheeted by National Investigation Agency (NIA) in connection with alleged hawala racket used to channelise money to terrorists of Hizb-ul-Mujahideen (HM) in the Kashmir Valley, reports PTI on August 3. The chargesheet names Ghulam Mohammed Bhat, Geelani’s aide, along with three other accomplices, including Mohd Sidiq Ganai, who had allegedly collected over INR 4.57 crore during a period of three years from January, 2008 through hawala channels from Pakistan for promoting "terrorist" activities in the valley. "The investigation has disclosed that four arrested accused acted as a gang and indulged in unlawful activities pursuant to criminal conspiracy and mobilised/raised funds for terrorist activities and thereby they committed offences under the Unlawful Activities (Prevention) Act," said the NIA in its 17-page charge sheet. The chargesheet said that "funds through hawala channels were being sent to Jammu and Kashmir for funding terror and secessionist acts in the state and Pakistan-based Maqbool Pandit, a member of banned Hizb-ul-Mujahideen, and Aizaz Maqbool Bhat, at present living in Saudi Arabia, were the key accused behind it." Special judge H S Sharma took the charge sheet on record for taking cognizance and issuing summons to the accused who are at present lodged in Tihar jail in New Delhi. IBN Live adds the special cell of Delhi police, on January 22, had arrested Srinagar-based lawyer Ghulam Mohammed Bhat, Mohd Sidiq Ganai, Ghulam Jeelani Liloo and Farooq Ahmed Dagga from a place in Jammu and Kashmir on a tip off that they were allegedly carrying hawala money for fomenting terror activities in the valley. It had also recovered INR 21.20 lakh hawala money from them. The charge sheet said investigation revealed that "huge consignments" of funds have been collected at various places in Delhi and one of accused Mohd Sidiq Ganai was in touch with Inter Services Intelligence (ISI) operatives Major Iqbal, an accused wanted in the 26/11 Mumbai attacks, and Colonel Abdullah. Ganai, who has been identified as an active member of People's League, a constituent of APHC-G, had gone to Pakistan in 1998 through Wagah border on Indian travel document and returned via Nepal on a Pakistani passport.

The Special NIA court, Panchkula, had allowed the agency to re-examine the samples, following which Swami Aseemanand, the arrested extremist leader who is the chief suspect in the case, had approached HC, which had stayed the re-examination of samples till September 1,2011 when the case would come up for further hearing. The stay order was passed by the HC on August 23 after hearing Aseemanand's petition, which said that the NIA was planning to do it only to create evidence against him.

Turning down the appeal made by the arrested extremist leader Swami Aseemanand who had sought directions to restrain National Investigation Agency (NIA) from re-examining samples gathered after bomb blasts in Samjhauta Express on February 18, 2007, the Punjab and Haryana High Court, on September 2, ruled that NIA's move cannot be termed as re-investigation, but is further investigation in the case, which is permissible under law, The Times of India reported. Special NIA court, Panchkula, where trial against Aseemanand is pending, had allowed the agency to examine the samples, but he had moved the HC against the trial court's decision. In his appeal before the HC, Aseemanand had pleaded that the NIA wanted to re-examine the sample just to create evidence against him. He also submitted that since the agency had already investigated the matter and chargesheet has been filed in the case, such examination amounted to re-investigation.

The National Investigation Agency concluded that the Mumbai serial blasts (July 13, 2011) was the handiwork of the Indian Mujahideen (IM), Deccan Chronicle reported. The NIA informed the Government about this in August, 2011 giving details regarding involvement of key IM operatives in the planning and execution of the blasts. The NIA had been involved in the blast investigations along with Mumbai crime branch and anti-terror squad. Sources said the agency has concluded that the conspiracy was hatched by the Bhatkal brothers, Riaz and Iqbal, along with their two key associates, Shahnawaz and Mohd Khalid. Bhatkal brothers, Riaz and Iqbal are now said to be in Pakistan. “Shahnawaz is said to be hiding in Sharjah while Khalid is in Dubai. We have technical evidence in our possession to suggest that the four hatched the blast conspiracy and were in touch with another group in Bangladesh. A close technical scrutiny has revealed a complex web of phone calls and e-mails between top IM operatives,’’ a top intelligence official said. Interestingly, NIA sources have informed the Centre that the IM operatives have a close association with the banned Students Islamic Movement of India (SIMI) and used one of their sleeper cells in Mumbai for logistical support.

Quoting Delhi Police, The Times of India reported that the explosives-laden car found at Ambala Cantonment railway station in Haryana on the night of October 12 was headed to the national capital for a terror strike. According to Delhi Police officials, the blue Indica car had five kilograms of RDX in two packets, two batteries, five detonators and two timer devices. Delhi Police said the explosives were meant for terror outfit Babbar Khalsa International (BKI), which had plans to target the national capital. "We had inputs that a Lashkar-e-Toiba (LeT) module active in Jammu and Kashmir was planning to strike in Delhi. Investigations were done and found that the explosives were meant for Babbar Khalsa International (BKI) and to be used in Delhi," said Arun Kampani, Deputy Commissioner of Police (special cell). According to sources, the plot was orchestrated by the Pakistani intelligence agency, Inter Services Intelligence (ISI) and the whole operation was being monitored from Nepal. A call was traced from Nepal 10 days ago which suggested exchange of explosives. The Policemen are investigating if the recovery of explosives has any links to the September 7 blast at Delhi High Court, where too RDX was used. A team of National Investigation Agency (NIA), which is probing the HC blast along with bomb disposal squads and forensic experts from Madhubani FSL have rushed to Ambala. Officials said the explosive was smuggled to Jammu and Kashmir through the border and a separate module was assigned to deliver it to Delhi. Police is looking for two suspects who drove the car to Ambala from Jammu. They have recovered two toll tax slips, of Shambhu Barrier and Ladowal in Punjab, from the car, and probably have CCTV footage of the two suspects from one of the toll booths.

Meanwhile interrogation of Wasim threw conflicting versions before them about the involvement of terror group. The accused is learnt to have told the NIA that the blast was carried out by someone who is associated with Jaish-e-Mohammed (JeM), contradicting his earlier version when he had told them about his associates' linkages to Hizb-ul-Mujahideen (HM) and Harkat-ul-Jihad-al-Islami (HuJI). Close coordination of all these groups at different levels in carrying out the blast is, however, not ruled out by the investigators.

The National Investigation Agency (NIA) is all set to expand its wings by opening three new offices and increasing the organisation strength from existing 400 to nearly 900, The Times of India reported. The Government has decided to create nearly 500 more posts raising the strength of the counter-terror agency to 900 besides opening offices in Lucknow, Kochi and Mumbai, officials said. The need for opening up of offices in the three cities was felt as Uttar Pradesh is being used by terrorists to infiltrate from Nepal. The State's porous border with Nepal is also being used for smuggling Fake Indian Currency Notes (FICNs) into the country. Mumbai, being a commercial capital of the country, has been often made terror target while Kerala is being used by some terror groups as a recruitment ground for over ground workers who carried of reconnaissance and also indulged in hawala rackets. The NIA was set up in the aftermath of Mumbai terror attacks (November 26, 2008, also called, 26/11) following an act passed by the Parliament and is entrusted with cases related to terror.

A special police officer (SPO) was killed while a ‘divisional commander’ of Hizb-ul-Mujahideen (HM) and one of the alleged conspirators of September 7 Delhi High Court blast, Mohammad Amin Bhat alias Jehangir Saroori, escaped along with his body-guard, Mohammad Riaz, after a heavy exchange of gun battle between the Security Forces (SFs) and militants at Darang forests in Dachchan Haddal area of Kishtwar District in the morning of November 15, reports Daily Excelsior. Deputy Inspector General of Police (DIG, Doda-Kishtwar Range) Manish Kumar Sinha said Saroori, a resident of Saroorh (Kishtwar) along with his body-guard, a March 2010 recruit and a resident of Anzar, opened fire on the SFs after observing their movement. The SFs retaliated. In the exchange of firing, SPO Billal Ahmed was killed while Saroori and his body-guard managed to escape along with arms and ammunition leaving their other belongings on the incident site. The SFs, however, have still maintained a cordon at six to seven places in the forests of Dachchan area to trace the militant who was active in militancy since 1990. HM supremo and United Jehad Council (UJC) chief Syed Salahudin and Jehangir Saroori had reportedly masterminded the High Court blast in which three more HM militants were still absconding. The absconders, on whose head the National Investigating Agency (NIA) had kept a reward of INR 1 million, included Junaid Akram Malik, brother of Wasim Akram Malik, who has already been arrested, Aamir Kamal alias Kamran and Sheikh Rashid alias Chota Hafiz alias Adil.

Without elaborating the details, Union home secretary R K Singh on December 1 said the NIA would file the charge sheet against Headley soon.

Hindustan Times adds that the NIA has unearthed a hawala operation of front organisations of Pakistan-based terror outfits Lashkar-e-Toiba (LeT) and HM for providing money to families of terror operatives killed all over India. The NIA has detected in the last few years a well-oiled hawala operation to tune of around INR one Billion. According to sources in the NIA, a part of the money received by HM operatives goes to certain separatist leaders in Kashmir and another chunk is devoted to fuel militancy. The NIA has registered two FIRs based on the information gathered by it. “The funds received from Pakistan are transferred to Jammu & Kashmir, Delhi and other places in India through the hawala channel by a front organisation of HM which goes by the name of Jammu & Kashmir Affectees Relief Trust (JKART),” states one of the FIRs. The JKART, according to the FIR, has its head office in Rawalpindi and branch offices in Islamabad and Muzzafarabad in PoK. The sources in the NIA said that Delhi had emerged as a major hub for this operation. Once money reaches the national capital, it is disbursed through conduits based in Jama Masjid, Lajpat Nagar and Bhogal areas. The NIA suspects the use of normal banking channels to disburse the money once it reaches Delhi. “The HM is getting significant funding from Pakistan based Hizb-e-Islami which led by Masood Sarfaraz. In case of LeT, the money is coming from the Gulf too,” said an NIA source.

The National Investigation Agency (NIA) has said that Hizb-ul-Mujahideen (HM) backed and Pakistan occupied Kashmir (PoK) based Jammu and Kashmir Affectees Relief Fund Trust (JKART) is funding terror in Jammu and Kashmir, reports Indian Express. The agency, which registered an FIR under various sections of the Indian Penal Code (IPC) and Unlawful Activities (Prevention) Act (UAPA), named two Pakistani nationals who are heading the JKART. Chairman of the trust Mahboob-ul-Haq and general secretary Masroor Dar have been named by the NIA in the FIR. The two are reportedly close to HM chief Syed Salahuddin and are responsible for transfer of money to their cadres in the Valley and PoK. The agency is learnt to have picked up a conversation where the two named in the FIR can be heard allegedly directing cadres to provide logistical support and money to terrorists in the Valley. Investigators allege that JKART has pumped in more than INR 800 million into the Valley in the name of relief and rehabilitation work, diverted to finance terror. Founded in 1990, the JKART runs a refugees camp in PoK. According to NIA’s FIR, in October the NIA received credible information about illegal funding by HM in J&K to mujahideen who are fighting against the Indian Security Forces. “Investigation so far has revealed that apart from banking channels, terrorists across the border have used hawala [illegal money transfer] channel and human couriers,” said a NIA official.

National Investigation Agency (NIA) has prepared a 'Terror Funding Template' (TFT), which will help its officials and investigators of states' anti-terror agencies to extract information on terror funding, reports The Times of India. The Template has been circulated to all states and Union Territories for getting relevant information from terrorists and terror suspects during their interrogation and probe. Besides usual source of terror funding through hawala (illegal money transfer), narcotics trade and printing/circulation of Fake Indian Currency Notes (FICN), the Template has taken into account `misuse' of 'zakat' (giving alms to poor and needy as prescribed by the Quran) to fund terror activities. It has factored in local issues like reports suggesting\alleging diversion of fund from various 'madrassa’ along border areas to different terror outfits," said a Ministry of Home Affairs (MHA) official.

Government on December 21 gave its sanction to the National Investigation Agency (NIA) to charge sheet nine persons, including two serving Inter Services Intelligence (ISI) officers, Major Iqbal and Major Samir Ali, Pakistani-American Lashkar-e-Toiba (LeT) operative David Coleman Headley, LeT founder Hafiz Saeed, al Qaida operative Ilyas Kashmiri, for plotting terror strikes in India, including the 26/11 Mumbai attack, reports Times of India. The sanction will now pave the way for NIA - which had registered the case against these accused in November 2009 - to file charge sheet against them in any day from now. It is for the first time that an Indian probe agency will name serving ISI officers in a charge sheet. Name of a retired Pakistani Army Major, Abdul Rehman Hashim, will also be there in the charge sheet. Others who will be charge sheeted include 26/11 attacks mastermind and LeT ‘commander’ Zaki-ur-Rehman Lakhvi, another LeT's top operative Sajid Majid and Headley's accomplice and Pakistani-Canadian Tahawwur Hussain Rana. While Headley and Rana - arrested by the FBI in Chicago in October 2009 - have been in US jail ever since they were caught there, Lakhvi - arrested by Pakistani authorities in connection with the 26/11 terror attack -- has been in Pakistani jail. The others, however, remain scot free in Pakistan. It was Hashim who had set up the ISI's 'Karachi Project' and trained a number of Indian youths for carrying out attacks in India. The project is meant to bleed India using locals through LeT's network. The charge sheet will also be the first Indian 'legal' document mentioning about the 'Karachi Project' and how it is being ran by network of Indian Mujahideen (IM) terrorists who are LeT's fronts in India. The 'Project' was set up for giving an impression of 'home-grown' terror in India.

According to the charge sheet filed by the National Investigation Agency (NIA) in connection with November 26, 2008 (also known as 26/11) case Lashkar-e-Toiba (LeT) chief Hafiz Mohammad Saeed motivated the 26/11 attack squad, reports Hindustan Times. "Gunshot will feel like a pin prick, blood stains will be like rose petals, and angels will come down to take your souls," said Saeed while motivating the 10 member suicide squad for the attacks, states the charge sheet. According to the charge sheet, once the LeT leadership decided that it would be a suicide attack, Saeed himself motivated squad. The charge sheet also makes it clear that despite international pressure immediately after the 26/11 attacks, LeT was ready with more plans to attack India. A mail written by Hafiz Saeed's trusted aide Sajid Mir to David Coleman Headley in July, 2009 says: "There are some investment (attack) plans with me." "Just nine months after the Mumbai attacks, the LeT-ISI combine was ready with more plans. It shows the kind of adversary India is fighting against. The significance of the chargesheet is that it lays bare the conspiracy of Pakistan before and after the execution of the 26/11 attacks," said an unnamed official.
