The Interpol has issued a Blue notice against five youths -- four Keralites and one Karnataka native -- who are suspected to have joined terror groups, Jabhat al-Nusra (linked with al Qaeda) and Jund al-Aqsa (splinter group of Jabhat al-Nusra), in Syria, New Indian Express reports on December 11. The National Investigation Agency (NIA) has also initiated steps to attach the properties of the five accused persons. In January 2019, the NIA found that a group of Keralites working in Qatar joined the rebel terror groups in Syria, which is fighting the forces in the country. The accused persons were identified as Hashir Uchummel Mohammed from North Paravoor; Siddique alias Sidhikul Akbar from Malappuram; Muhammad Irfan of Vadakkumbad near Thalassery; Thahir Mohammed from Shimoga in Karnataka, and Sultan Abdulla from Mukkom, Kozhikode. They were allegedly radicalised in Qatar. The NIA had earlier sought the help of Interpol to track down these persons. “Interpol has issued with a Blue notice against these persons to get details about them from Syria. We suspect that some of them have died by now. However, there is no confirmation in this regard. A court in Kochi has also issued non-bailable arrest warrants against these persons,” sources in Ministry of Home Affairs said.

With 350 Indians killed and 540 injured in 748 terrorist incidents in 2018, India is at seventh place in a global think tank’s list of countries most affected by terrorism, according to the annual report by the Sydney-based Institute for Economics and Peace, Business Standard reports on November 20. States that the country most affected by terrorism in 2018 was Afghanistan (7,379 killed), displacing Iraq (1,054 killed) as the deadliest country. Iraq, now at second place, is followed by Nigeria, Syria, Pakistan and Somalia, in that order. The report states that 8,473 Indians have died since 2001 at the hands of terrorists. However, the 2018 death count was 10 per cent lower than in 2017, and 53 per cent lower than its peak in 2009. The number of terrorist attacks has increased by 14 per cent over the same period, peaking in 2016 at over 900", states the report. This trend indicates that terror attacks in India are becoming steadily less bloody. In 1998, about 4.3 people were killed in each attack. That dropped to 1.6 deaths per attack in 2008, and 0.5 in 2018. "In 2018 alone, 69 per cent of attacks had zero fatalities and 22 per cent had one fatality", says the report.
