On January 8m in a joint operation, the Central Crime Branch (CCB) and Karnataka's internal security division arrested three alleged Indian Mujahideen (IM) operatives in two separate incidents and seized a huge cache of bomb-making material and communication devices, reports The Times of India. The arrests were made in Cox Town of Bengaluru, and Bhatkal in Uttara Kannada District. Announcing the arrests, Police Commissioner MN Reddi said so far no connection has been established between the trio and the December 28 explosion on Church Street. But, Police will investigate further. Reddi said around 5 kilogram of ammonium nitrate, gelatin, electrical circuits, detonators and a walkie-talkie have been seized. "Three men, Syed Ismail Afaq, 34, Saddam Hussein, 35 and Abdus Subur, 24 have been arrested. The first two were arrested from the house in Pulakeshinagar in east Bengaluru and the third person was arrested from Bhatkal town. Abdus Subur, 24 was MBA student in Bhatkal and we are yet to identify the background of the other two arrested men," Reddi added. During the investigation it was found that these men were acting on the instructions of a handler abroad. "We can't confirm the country from where the handler was operating. These men are being interrogated right now and we can't disclose the directions these men were given either, at the point of the investigation," he said. These men have been booked under sections 3.4 and 5 of explosive substances act and sections 10, 13 and 18 of Unlawful Assembly Prevention Act (UAPA) and 120 B and 121 A of Indian Penal Code (IPC).

According to the Police officials, four suspected operatives of Indian Mujahideen (IM) arrested recently were part of a terror module that was used to procure, fabricate and deliver deadly explosives, reports The Times of India on January 13. A top Police official said that the IM operatives transferred money through Hawala channels for funding and at least one of them attended meetings in a foreign country, where a conspiracy was hatched to manufacture and deliver deadly explosives which were probably used for blasts in different parts of the country. Bengaluru Police commissioner M N Reddi said that "I would say that a picture is emerging based on the interrogation that we have done. This was a module that was used by the IM as well as the other terrorist organisations to procure, fabricate, supply and deliver deadly explosives." However, Reddi added that there was nothing so far to link the arrested persons with the December 28, 2014 Bengaluru blast that claimed the life of a woman. One of the arrested IM operative, Syed Ismail Afaque was the man who assembled and supplied two improvised explosive devices (IEDs) used in the Dilsukhnagar bomb blasts in February 21, 2013 (Hyderabad), reports The New Indian Express on January 13. Top sources confirmed that Afaque, during joint interrogation by the Karnataka Police and the National Investigation Agency (NIA), reportedly confessed that he had designed the IEDs and supplied them to other accused who planted them at Dilsukhnagar and executed the blasts. Sources said that “On instructions of his Pakistan-based handlers, particularly Riyaz Bhatkal, the most-wanted terrorist, Afaque purchased the material for the explosives from Manguluru, assembled them and supplied it to other accused who triggered the blasts.” Afaque will be brought to Hyderabad to be produced in the court in connection with the Dilsukhnagar blasts after which NIA is likely to seek his custody to elicit more information about the blasts.

The Hyderabad Police on January 16 arrested a 32-year-old United States (US)-returned engineering graduate, identified as Salman Moinuddin at Rajiv Gandhi International Airport (Hyderabad) while he was allegedly on his way to Syria to join Islamic State of Iraq and Syria (ISIS) along with his girlfriend, who is based in Dubai, reports The Times of India. Police said that Salman Moinuddin, the would-be militant, is also an active recruiter for ISIS. Sleuths of the Counter-Intelligence wing of the Telangana State Intelligence, who effected the arrest, said they had been tracking Moinuddin through his online activities and nabbed him no sooner did he land at the airport. It were the central intelligence agencies that had tipped off the state officials about Moinuddin, they added. According to Police, Moinuddin had planned to join his girlfriend Ayesha in Dubai from where they were to proceed to Syria via Turkey and establish links with ISIS militants. Ayesha is a British national and was formerly known as Nicky Joseph alias Nicole before she converted to Islam after coming into contact with Moinuddin, Police said. The accused had lived in the US for about four years including in Houston, Texas, and is said to have a MS degree in electronics from Texas Southern University. "As per our information, after his studies, Moinuddin was doing odd jobs during which time he got indoctrinated to ISIS ideology online and decided to join them. Moinuddin and Ayesha created various Face book groups under fictitious names and spread the ISIS ideology with the intention of attracting followers. After he was denied a visa extension, Moinuddin returned to Hyderabad in October last year and during the last two months, lured several youth across the country to join ISIS and wanted to take them to Syria," sources said.

On January 27, National Investigation Agency (NIA) arrested four persons in connection with the October 2, 2014 Bardhaman blast case after carrying out raids across three districts of Birbhum, Nadia and Murshidabad. Among the arrested is one of the main recruiters for Bangladeshi terror group Jama'atul Mujahideen Bangladesh (JMB), Dalim Sheikh alias Faijul Hoque Sheik, reports The Times of India. The other arrested are Motiur Rehman alias Noor Alam, Habibur Rehman Sheikh and Ghiyasuddin Munshi. While Dalim hails from Birbhum and Motiur from Nadia, the other two are from Murshidabad. NIA's investigation revealed that senior cadres of JMB had established terrorist training centres and bomb making units in Beldanga and Mukimnagar in Murshidabad, Birbhum's Nanur and Burdwan's Khagragarh and Simulia. According to NIA, Dalim was involved in various terror activities including setting up bases and hideouts, raising and collecting funds, radicalising Indian citizens for JMB and providing tactical and material support to senior Bangladeshi members of the agency in spreading the network in India. Motiur worked closely with Shakil Gazi (who was killed in the Khagragarh blast on October 2) at Beldanga in Mushidabad. Motiur maintained hideouts, training centres and bomb making centres at Beldanga. Habibur was a close associate of Sajid alias Sheikh Rahmatulla (a senior Bangladeshi JMB cadre). Habibur maintained and ran the terrorist training camp at Mukimnagar madrasa (Islamic Seminary) in Murshidabad. Ghiyasuddin is a JMB member along with his wife. A close associate of Talah Sheikh, one of JMB's top spiritual heads, he singlehandedly trained recruits at the Mukimnagar madrassa. All the accused were produced in court on January 28 and sent to NIA remand till February 3. The Bardhaman blast accused were not just using madrasas (Islamic Seminary) as training centre for terrorists but even assembling bombs in the garb of running burqa (veil) stitching units. The accused revealed to NIA that they had set up a burqa stitching unit as a front for assembling bombs in Beldanga, West Bengal. This unit was also being used to recruit people for terror activities and training them. "JMB had set up a tailoring unit in which its members used to stitch burqas. This, however, was a front for using the site to assemble bombs. The unit was run by Motiur Rehman, a close associate of Shakil Ghazi who was killed in the October 2 blast. Rehman was also responsible for maintenance of hideouts and recruitment," said an NIA officer. "Dalim was heading the Nanur Madarsa in Bolpur (Birbhum District). He used to spot potential recruits and then give them daawat (invitation) to JMB," said the officer. The investigations have also revealed that senior members of JMB had established terrorist training centres and bomb making units in Beldanga and Mukimnagar of Murshidabad, Nanur of Birbhum and Khagraghar and Simulia of Bardhaman District.

Security Forces arrested three person linked to Karbi People's Liberation Tigers (KPLT), an area commander and two linkmen, in Karbi Anglong on February 1, reports The Shillong Times. The arrested trio was identified as Munthir Engti, ‘area commander’ of KPLT, while the linkmen were identified as Horen Teron and David Engti. Further, SFs have also arrested more than 60 per cent cadres of the KPLT, reports The Telegraph. Further, many small militant groups are operating in the Hill District and these groups are involved in a number of extortion cases."Some of these small groups were formed by former members of UPDS [United People’s Democratic Solidarity] or KLNLF [Karbi Longri North Cachar Hills Liberation Front] while some were recruited later. We have managed to arrest 66 KPLT cadres while 11 were killed in encounters in the past year. About 50 cadres are still at large, mostly in eastern part of the district and Hamren (a separate police district in Karbi Anglong). But the KPLT now has been split into five groups - KPLT (Buche group), KPLT (Pratap), KPLT (Donri), KPLT (Symbon) and KPLT (Sojong). Some of these groups have six-seven members," Karbi Anglong Superintendent of Police Mugdha Jyoti Mahanta said. "Earlier there were one or two groups which used to collect money from the rich. But now there are so many groups that they don't even spare people like us. So, we prefer to avoid unknown numbers unless we receive a text message from the person," said a state government employee in Karbi Anglong, requesting anonymity. "In some cases, cadres were found making calls to Government officials and businessmen for money after their leaders were arrested and sent to jail," another source said.
