The Supreme Court on July 4 referred to a Constitution bench the plea of Jammu and Kashmir (J&K) National Panthers Party challenging the legality of the return and rehabilitation policy of J&K Government allowing the return of youth, who had crossed over to Pakistan in 1990s, to the Valley, reports Daily Excelsior. The court referred the matter to the constitution bench which is seized of another issue relating to the validity of the Resettlement Act, 1982. National Panthers Party, through its president Professor Bhim Singh, had moved against the ‘return and rehabilitation policy’, terming it as "highly dangerous" for the security of the State and submitted it may create a serious conflict. In his application, Bhim Singh alleged the Union Ministry of Home Affairs has already approved the return of 1300 Kashmiri youth on the recommendation of the State Government headed by Chief Minister Omar Abdullah. The party requested the Court to "issue an order restraining the Centre and the Government of J&K and its officials not to allow any militant or ex-militant from Pakistan occupied Kashmir (PoK) or Pakistan to enter J&K who had voluntarily migrated illegally from J&K and defected to PoK or Pakistan in the past".

A 52-Year old person was arrested along with Fake Indian Currency Note (FICN) worth INR .575 million in Delhi on July 7, Indian Express reported. The arrestee, identified as Ishhaq Ansari of Khargona village in Murshidabad District of West Bengal, during interrogation, said that he procured the fake notes from Murshidabad which were being smuggled into India from Bangladesh. According to Ashok Chand, Deputy Commissioner of Police (Crime and Railways), Ansari had paid 40 per cent of the face value of the fake notes while procuring them and sold them for 60 per cent of the face value in Delhi. The person to whom he sold the fake notes was presently absconding. According to the Police, the FICN of INR 500 denomination, have most of the security features like Water Mark, Intaglio printing, identification mark, micro-lettering and security thread were present like those in an original currency note, making it extremely difficult to identify them. The only way to differentiate between the original and fake notes was that when the fake one was tilted, the colour of the security thread did not change and remained green whereas the colour of thread in the original changed from green to dark.

Three serial bomb blasts in the span of 10 minutes in the evening of July 13 ripped through three of the busiest hubs in Mumbai city —Zaveri Bazar, Opera House and Dadar—, killing 17 people and injuring 131 others, reports Times of India. The first explosion was at 6.54pm at Zaveri Bazaar, followed by another at Opera House a minute later. The third explosion was at 7.06pm outside Kabutarkhana, a few metres from the western side of Dadar railway station. This is the third terror attack at Zaveri Bazaar. The high explosives with timer devices were kept on vehicles at Opera House and Zaveri Bazar while at Dadar a bus stop was the target. The Police said that seven Improvised Explosive Devices (IEDs) were used for the blasts. "There could be at least three groups of bomb planters who kept the bomb and left quietly," said a security official, adding that the IEDs were wrapped in cloth bags and tiffin carriers—the signature of the IM. Sources say that it could be the handiwork of Indian Mujahideen (IM), which recently formed a group called the 313 Squad and has been recruiting youngsters to it. Police commissioner Arup Patnaik said it was a terrorist attack.

The US media on July 14 has pointed out that the attacks Mumbai on July 13 had all the markings of Lashkar-e-Toiba (LeT), according to Times of India. "Whatever the investigation uncovers -- and it's still very early -- one thing is clear: Those groups still operate despite international pressure on Pakistan after the Mumbai attacks of nearly three years ago," said the ProPublica report headlined 'Mumbai Attacks Renew Questions About Pakistan's Crackdown on Militants.' The latest attack "involved bombs planted in strategic locations, a recurring tactic used by Indian affiliates of Lashkar in recent years," it added. In the report, ProPublica's investigative journalist Sebastian Rotella said that during the past week, Pakistani leaders have criticised the Obama administration for ... withholding 800 million dollars in military aid." The latest Mumbai attacks "could also turn out to be part of that shadow-conflict. The Chicago Tribune said the attack "appears to have been carried out by associates of two Chicago terrorists (David Headley and Tahawwur Rana) convicted in June. “While no group has claimed responsibility, and the Indian Government has not blamed anyone, Wednesday's attack has all the markings of LeT, radical Pakistani terrorists who employed a pair of Chicago men as scouts and planners," it said. The report said the "coordinated explosions" in the jewellery and financial districts of Mumbai are "precisely the kinds of attacks that David Coleman Headley helped to plot for Pakistani terrorists. This latest assault was shorter, smaller and more precise, but no less unnerving." A report in the online edition of the Los Angeles Times said that in the aftermath of the Mumbai explosions, "... some suspicions focused on Pakistan-based militant groups."

Union Home Minister P Chidambaram said on July 14 (today) that 17 people have been confirmed dead in the serial strike. However, the toll could go up to 18 as one body with a severed head had to be identified. 131 people have been injured in the terror attack, of whom 26 are seriously injured. 26 injured have been discharged and another 82 are stable, he added. He added that no outfit had claimed responsibility for the attacks and that the Police was looking into “every possible hostile group” in their search for the culprits. Chidambaram observed that the perpetrators of the attacks had worked in a very clandestine manner since Indian intelligence agencies received no warning of a possible attack on Mumbai before the blasts. He further informed that the bombs used in the attacks were made of ammonium nitrate and were not remotely triggered.

An anonymous Officer said, "It may have been helped by Maoists in the state, who have free supply of ammonium nitrate because they operate in areas where mining takes place.”

Maharashtra Chief Minister (CM) Prithviraj Chavan said on July 15 Mumbai was ill-equipped to tackle terror, reports Times of India. Chavan admitted that owing to rampant red-tapism and procedural wrangles, his Government was not able to install around 5,000 CCTV cameras and was unable to procure sensitive weapons, bullet-proof jackets and security equipment. "We will install the CCTVs across the metropolis in a time-bound period," he stated. "As far as the procurement of weapons and equipment goes, I have personally spoken to Prime Minister Manmohan Singh and Home Minister P Chidambaram”. He stated, "Also, technology is constantly being upgraded. There appears to be a huge gap between placing an order and actual procurement, and in between if there is a change in technology, our equipment will be obsolete.'" Chavan reiterated that there were no intelligence inputs from the Centre and that the Mumbai police and crime branch had received no information on the possibility of a terror strike. "We had no information," he said. "But in view of the serial bomb blasts, we will redraft our strategy for gathering intelligence." The CM further said there were no leads suggesting the involvement of a specific terror group in 13/11 either but his Government had set up 12 Special Task Forces to track down the terror groups active in Mumbai and Maharashtra. In another context, he admitted that the Ram Pradhan committee report, which probed the 26/11, had not been implemented properly. "Some of the recommendations have been implemented," he said.

The Government is to classify ammonium nitrate as an "explosive" to help law enforcement agencies track the use and transit of this chemical that is routinely used in terror attacks in India, reports Times of India. A new notification will be issued to bring ammonium nitrate under Section 17 of the Explosives Act of 1884. This will be followed by executive regulations that will help check misuse of this chemical, which is one of the cheapest fertilizers available. Official data of pilferage available for 2004-06 alarmed the Home Ministry officials to issue an alert in 2007. There are over 21,000 ammonium nitrate manufacturers in India and reports of diversion and theft of this explosive is a routine affair. In India, ammonium nitrate has been used for terror attacks since 2007.

The Police on July 17 arrested a person, Shehzad Ismail Rangrezi, from new Shah Alam area in Ahmadabad after being alerted by his live-in partner that he had assembled bombs, Indian Express reported. The Police later recovered eight live crude bombs from a dry lake. Ahmadabad Police Commissioner Sudhir Sinha said, “Shehzad had brought these bombs from outside. He wanted to use these bombs before the Jagannath Rath Yatra in the city to create communal disharmony. However, that could not happen.” The bombs, the Bonm Disposal Squad officials said, contained gun powder, nuts and bolts, pieces of glass and marble, and assembled in a form that, when blasted, could have seriously injured people 10 to 50 metres from the spot. The Police also seized a country-made revolver from Shehzad’s house and some bottles of imported liquor.

Intelligence Agencies suspect that militant outfits targeting India have moved their communications significantly to Internet and other possible innovative means, Times of India reported. A senior intelligence officer said they had for some time now been suspecting that the terrorists had moved their communications to Voice over Internet Protocol (VoIP), a communication technology that helps delivery of voice and multimedia data over internet. A senior Army officer said they were getting credible inputs in recent times that Kashmiri terrorists were being provided smart phones from which calls could be made using Skype, the popular Internet VoIP site. Though they haven't yet recovered any such Skype phones, Army found that communications over mobile and Thuraya satellite phones had mostly dried up, he said.

Investigators probing the July 13 triple bomb blasts in Mumbai suspect that the blasts could have been the handiwork of a little-known militant outfit, the JIAM (Jam-i-yyathul Ansarul Muslimeen), experts have started focusing on the involvement of JIAM, a relatively new terror outfit with a strong base in South India. Another investigator said the outfit functioned as a shadow organisation of the Indian Mujahideen (IM), according to DNA. The outfit recruited people from the IM and even from the underworld. An officer from a central investigative agency said JIAM, originally a organisation based in Bangladesh, has recruited several fresh faces from Uttar Pradesh, Madhya Pradesh, Jharkhand, Gujarat, West Bengal, Andhra Pradesh and Kerala. There are unconfirmed reports that say JIAM could also have connections with the Taliban, the officer said.

Uttar Pradesh Police is probing two mysterious calls that asked a meat trader in Meerut and a farmer in Baghpat to plant bombs, according to Times of India. Both the calls have been traced to Iran but routed through the US, an official said. The first call was received by Hashim Ilahi, a meat trader in Ismail Nagar locality of Meerut city, about 400 kilometres from Lucknow on July 13. Two days later, on July 15, a similar call was received by Vikas, a young farmer living in Soop village in neighbouring Baghpat District, said state Special Director General of Police Brij Lal. Both Vikas and Hashim claimed to have been offered huge amounts of money to plant explosives and bombs in different parts of Meerut city. "They made it a point to promptly inform the police about the calls, following which the matter was referred to the Special Task Force (STF) which is now looking into both the cases," said Lal. Hashim told Police that the caller told him that he had been handpicked because his phone number ended with '786', regarded as auspicious in Islam. He said he was offered INR 20 million to carry out the mission.

Director-General of Police Kuldeep Khoda on July 20 said that Kashmiri American Council director in Washington DC, Syed Ghulam Nabi Fai, arrested by the FBI on July 19, was also diverting the ISI funds to India, particularly to Jammu and Kashmir, for anti-national activities, according to Deccan Herald. The DGP said, “There are very clear reports about him being funded by the ISI. He used to divert the funds for anti-national activities in India particularly in Kashmir. We will wait for the US agencies to conduct the probe.” Fai, who originally hails from Budgam district in Kashmir, is now a citizen of America. Fai (62) and Zaheer Khan (63), both US citizens, were charged with conspiring to act as agents of a foreign power in violation of the Foreign Agents Registration Act of US. The FBI accused Fai of being unregistered agent of the Pakistani government to influence the US policy makers and receiving funds from the ISI. In the US, it's a crime to lobby by using money from an overseas regime. Hindustan Times adds that Jammu and Kashmir State agencies had information of Fai being involved in diverting funds to Hurriyat in the Valley.

A dossier obtained by central intelligence agencies through joint efforts with international agencies revealed that 50 Indian nationals of West Bengal, Maharashtra, Uttar Pradesh, Assam, Karnataka and Bihar have received training at terror camps in the Balochistan province of Pakistan, Times of India reported on July 21. According to the dossier majority of these individuals were from Assam and West Bengal, which, in addition to Bihar are the new hubs for recruitment of terrorists. Sources claimed that these men had fanned out across cities in India, where they were masquerading as religious clerics, and recruiting fresh faces into terrorism. In this regard, the name of a key link between the Bangladeshi group Harkat-ul-Jihad-al-Islami-Bangladesh (HuJI-B) and members of Indian Mujahedeen (IM), identified as Jalaluddin Mullah alias Babu Bhai, has caught the attention of teams investigating the Mumbai serial blasts (13/7). Jalaluddin is a resident of South-24 Parganas District of West Bengal and is currently lodged in a prison in Lucknow in Uttar Pradesh.

The Scotland Yard on July 21 initiated a probe into the activities and financing of London-based Kashmir lobby group, Justice Foundation, suspected to be a front of Pakistan's Inter Services Intelligence (ISI), according to a source in the agency. A Scotland Yard spokesman told Times of India, "We can confirm we are liaising with US authorities." The British home ministry said it was probably not an offence under UK laws for lobbyists to be under-written by a foreign government or any of its agencies. "To the best of our knowledge, it is not," said a spokesman. This means police and the Crown Prosecution Service will have to take recourse to some other legislation if they proceed against Justice Foundation. India will soon write to UK and Belgium to initiate similar action against "Kashmir Centres" in London and Brussels.

Times of India reports that the Union Government, in the aftermath of the Mumbai serial blasts case (13/7), is fast taking up the initiative to set up the National Counter-Terrorism Centre (NCTC) – an umbrella body to deal with terror threats in the country. The Union Home Ministry had prepared a detailed discussion paper comprising the composition and structure of such a centre and sent it to the PMO in April 2010. Under the proposal, the NCTC will be the nodal agency for counter-terrorism in the country with organizations like Intelligence Bureau's Multi-Agency Centre (MAC), Joint Intelligence Committee (JIC), National Technical Research Organisation (NTRO), National Security Guard (NSG) and other related agencies reporting to it. The NCTC will also have direct control over National Investigation Agency (NIA). Since the Centre will also have the mandate to look into the issues of insurgency in northeast and Maoist threat, all central armed police forces like CRPF, CISF, BSF, ITBP, SSB and Assam Rifles will also report to it.

According to TIMES NOW, Ghulam Nabi Fai’s Kashmiri American Centre in various countries, not just in United States (US) but also in the United Kingdom (UK) was being used to spread Pakistan’s Inter-Services Intelligence (ISI’s) anti-India agenda. Following these revelations Britain’s Scotland Yard has initiated probe in to the financing of London-based Justice Foundation which was being routed money through the Fai’s Kashmiri American Centre. Earlier, few years back, a probe was launched against the sources of funding of the Foundation, which is accused of financing 'jihadi' groups that have been launching attacks against India in Jammu and Kashmir. Fai (62) and Zaheer Ahmad (63) both US citizens, were charged with conspiring to act as agents of a foreign power in violation of the Foreign Agents Registration Act of US. Fai, with the help of Ahmad, allegedly funnelled ISI’s cash into the US to influence the American policy on Kashmir. Further, Deccan Herald reported that Fai’s international seminars on Kashmir were also financed by the ISI. According to the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) affidavit, the ISI instructed Fai on whom to invite to the seminars. This has raised valid concern in India as several prominent Indian journalists and opinion makers have participated in the seminars where Pro-Pakistan resolutions were passed.

But given the widespread use of the mixture as fertilizer, the Government notification came with a rider that its possession and use would invoke penal action only if the composition had 45% or more ammonium nitrate content. "The central government hereby declares that ammonium nitrate or any combination containing more than 45% of ammonium nitrate by weight including emulsions, suspensions, melts or gels shall be deemed to be an explosive," the commerce and industry ministry said in a notification issued last week.

In response to a request made by the FBI to share with it all the samples of evidence collected in the Mumbai terror attack case (November 26, 2008, also known as 26/11), the Mumbai Police has expressed its inability to do so since several items on the FBI’s long wish list have already been disposed of by local authorities, Indian Express reported. Early in January 2011, a Chicago court sent a Letter Rogatory (LR) to the trial court in Mumbai seeking some of the evidence collected during the 26/11 probe. The LR was received by the 37th Metropolitan Magistrate’s Court, which forwarded it to Principal Sessions Judge M L Tahaliyani, who presided over the 26/11 trial. According to sources, the FBI had requested for access to 406 items of evidence in the possession of the court of which several are now found to have been destroyed according to standard procedure.

Times of India reports that India plans to approach a global inter-governmental body - Financial Action Task Force (FATF) - asking it to treat the issue of 'fake currency notes' as an instrument of 'terror funding'. New Delhi will back its demand by presenting an exhaustive paper to the global forum, highlighting how Pakistan-based terrorist organizations have been using fake Indian currency notes (FICN) routes to fund their operations in Jammu and Kashmir and other parts of the country for long. After approaching the FATF, which aims to develop and promote national and international policies to combat 'money laundering' and 'terror financing', India will subsequently also raise the issue before the World Bank, IMF and Interpol.

The Delhi Police has reportedly launched a manhunt for Nasir Safi Mir, who is accused of funding several Hurriyat leaders and is believed to have fled to the Gulf after jumping parole, reports Daily Excelsior. He was arrested by Delhi Police in February 2006 while carrying INR 55 lakh from a Delhi-based jeweller along with some explosives. He had jumped parole which he had got after several requests made by his family to a court citing medical problems. Mir, against whom a non-bailable warrant was issued in 2009, managed to escape using the Nepal route from where he had used the forged passport procured with the help of a senior separatist leader in Kashmir and officials in security establishment, they said. He reached Dubai after making a detour through Europe and Libya. However, the sources now claim that he has left Dubai as well. The name of Mir, a resident of North Kashmir, who ostensibly used carpet trade and later a money exchange business in Dubai for sending hawala money (illegal money transfer) to Hurriyat leaders and other separatists in Kashmir, cropped up when the Government was examining the role of Kashmiri American Council leader Gulam Nabi Fai and whether India could give some additional information to the US, the sources said. Apart from Mir, considered as the "financial brain" behind funding of separatist activities in Kashmir, investigators were also probing the role of some senior Government officials who had helped him in securing a passport from a Southern State which helped him to flee from Nepal around October 2008, official sources said.
