On August 2, Prime Minister (PM) of India, Narendra Modi held discussion with Afghan President Ashraf Ghani over the evolving security situation in the region, reports The Times of India. In readout of PM Modi’s conversation, Ministry of External Affairs (MEA) stated that, PM after exchanging greetings for Eid-ul-Adha with Afghan President Ghani, discussed on the evolving security situation in the region and other areas of mutual bilateral interest. He also spoke about the recent terror attack on an Afghan prison in Nangarhar which killed almost 30 people. Islamic State Khorasan Province (ISKP) claimed responsibility for the attack. However, India security services believe the attack more likely had the involvement of Taliban as over 100 Taliban prisoners escaped from the prison during the attack. In recent times, ISKP attacks in Afghanistan most likely have the footprint of the Haqqani Network and, by extension the Lashkar e Toiba (LeT) and the Taliban. Moreover, the attack happening at the end of three-day Eid ceasefire agreed between the Taliban and Afghan government that saw Afghan government releasing about 5000 Taliban prisoners as goodwill gesture have largely benefitted the nexus of Taliban/Haqqani Network/LeT to carry out attacks in the guise of ISKP. This may negatively impact the ceasefire talk between Taliban and Afghan government further threatening the peace and tranquility of the region.

India raised Dawood Ibrahim’s name at the ‘High-Level Open Debate of the UN Security Council: Addressing the Issue of Linkages between Terrorism and Organized Crime’ on August 6, reports India Today. India highlighted the nexus between international terrorism and organised crime. The greatest example for India is UN-designated terrorist Dawood Ibrahim. Speaking of the connection of this crime syndicate with terrorism from across the border, the statement said, “India has been a victim of terrorism sponsored from across our border. We have experienced first-hand the cruel linkage between transnational organized crime and terrorism. An organized crime syndicate, the D-Company, that used to smuggle gold and counterfeit currencies transformed into a terrorist entity overnight causing a series of bomb blasts in the city of Mumbai in 1993.”

India on August 14, criticised Pakistan over reports that former UN-designated terrorist Gulbuddin Hekmatyar participated in an event hosted by Pakistan’s mission in Afghanistan, saying this was not new as Pakistan not only harbours terror outfits, but also encourages them, reports New Indian Express. Ministry of External Affairs (MEA) Spokesperson Anurag Srivastava said India hopes that such participation in public events by a former UN-designated terrorist would not go unnoticed. Asked about reports that Pakistan got Hekmatyar to speak at an event of a Pakistani mission in Afghanistan, he said, "We have seen the media reports of the participation of the former UN-designated terrorist in an event organised by the government of Pakistan. This is nothing new, Pakistan not only harbours terror outfits, but also encourages them." In 2017, the United Nations removed Afghan warlord Hekmatyar from its list of designated terrorists, lifting the assets freeze, travel ban and arms embargo imposed on the insurgent leader who signed a peace pact with the Afghan government. On the Afghan peace process and the Afghanistan government's decision to release 400 Taliban prisoners, Srivastava said, "We have taken note of the development." "As far as India is concerned, we strongly support peace and reconciliation process in Afghanistan. We also support the intra-Afghan negotiations," he added.

Two IS (Islamic State) operatives on August 19, pleaded guilty before a Delhi court in a case of criminal conspiracy by the IS to establish its base in India by recruiting Muslim youths through different social media platforms in order to carry out acts of terrorism in the country, reports thekashmirimages.com. Accused Abu Anas and Najmul Huda made the submission before the court, which was scheduled to hear arguments on the quantum of punishment for six other accused who had earlier pleaded guilty in the case, their advocate Qausar Khan said. Special Judge Parveen Singh, meanwhile, deferred for August 24, 2020 the hearing on the quantum of sentence for the six accused — Mudabbir Mushtaq Sheikh, Mohammad Shareef Moinudeen Khan, Asif Ali, Mohammad Hussain Khan, Syed Mujahid and Mohammad Azhar Khan — who pleaded guilty earlier. While pleading guilty, the accused told the court that they were “remorseful for the acts alleged against them”, and undertook not to indulge in similar acts and activities in future. The case, registered by the National Investigation Agency (NIA) on December 9, 2015 under relevant sections of the IPC and the UA(P) Act, pertains to the larger criminal conspiracy hatched by the IS to establish its base in India by recruiting Muslim youths for the proscribed terror group through different social media platforms, the probe agency said. The accused had formed Junood-ul-Khilafa-Fil-Hind organisation, seeking to establish a caliphate in India and pledging allegiance to IS, to recruit Muslim youths to work for the ISIS and commit acts of terrorism in India at the behest of Syria-based Yusuf-Al-Hindi who is purportedly the media chief of IS, it said. The NIA had filed chargesheets against 16 accused in 2016-2017.

Indian Parliament, led by Lok Sabha (Lower House of Indian Parliament) Speaker Om Birla, on August 20, urged the international community to isolate Pakistan for sponsoring terrorism, reports Hindustan Times. Exercising its Right of Reply at the 5th World Conference of Speakers of Parliament, India said, “Pakistan PM admitted there are nearly 40,000 militants on its soil. Pakistan’s aggressions against J&K in 1965, 1971, 1999 (Kargil), attack on Mumbai and Parliament, Uri, Pulwama etc. show Pakistan’s State-sponsored policy of terrorism as evident in the inaction against likes of Hafiz Saeed, Masood Azhar and Ehsanullah Ehsan.” It added, “Jammu & Kashmir has been and will remain an integral part of India. We call upon Pakistan to end cross-border Terrorism. Our overtures should not be taken as sign for weakness..”

Chandigarh intelligence unit recently alerted other intelligence agencies of possible alliance between Pakistan’s terror outfits and local gangsters in India to disrupt law and order situation in the country, Deccan Herald reports on August 24. The intelligence unit gave names of five gangsters who have allegedly been given tasks by Pakistan’s Inter-Services Intelligence (ISI) and terror organisations to target a few leaders in India. Two of the gangsters are absconding, while the other three are in jail, the report said. Regardless of being locked up, these gangsters are involved in dozens of murders, robbery, narcotic cases and running rackets from inside. The local Police have been asked to keep track of other such local gangsters and keep an eye on their movement, even if they are in jail. The reason for this latest strategy is that ISI’s sleeper cells have been almost eliminated or they refuse to work for fear of being killed by Security Forces which has stepped up its vigilance, an official said. Also, there is hardly any top-level commander to control local sleeper cells, hence, terror organisations might be turning to local gangsters to execute attacks.

Sabeel Ahmed, terror recruiter and a doctor, who was deported from United Kingdom in 2007 after his elder brother, Kafeel Ahmed, carried out a suicide attack at Glasgow Airport, was arrested on August 28, on arriving in New Delhi after his deportation from Saudi Arabia, where he was detained in connection with an alleged Lashkar-e-Taiba (LeT) recruitment plot registered in Bengaluru (Karnataka) in 2012, reports Indian Express. Sabeel Ahmed, 38, was produced in a Delhi court and will be brought to Bengaluru on a transit warrant, an National Investigation Agency (NIA) source said. He was first linked to the LeT case in 2013. Fourteen of 17 people arrested (out of 25 accused) in the case have pleaded guilty and have been released after serving jail terms. “A team from NIA’s Bengaluru camp office reached Delhi and arrested him yesterday. He has been produced in court and taken on transit remand,” the NIA source said on August 29. Sabeel is alleged to have introduced two key players in the suspected LeT recruitment plot of 2010-11 to each other, his brother-in-law Imran Ahmed, a dentist, and a Bengaluru engineer named Mohammed Shahid Faisal alias Ustad. Imran was arrested in 2013 during a visit from Saudi Arabia on a fake passport and Ustad is reported absconding by NIA. Linked in the case following Imran’s arrest, Sabeel had stated in a communiqué from Saudi Arabia: “I am given to understand that the allegation against me is that I have been part of some meetings in Riyadh and Dammam (in Saudi), where these plots were hatched. I categorically deny having attended any such meetings.” “I am also given to understand that I am accused of financing and giving logistical support to the plot. It is ridiculous… I have never had any excess finances to distribute to people without having knowledge of what is done with the money,” he had stated. In 2017, Ahmed was also named by Delhi Police’s Special Cell of being among a dozen missing Indians who were allegedly trying to establish the Al Qaeda in the Indian Subcontinent (AQIS).
