Government on June 1 extended the ban on Liberation Tigers of Tamil Eelam (LTTE) by two more years, reports News.lk. A statement issued by the Indian Home Ministry on May 14, stated that even though LTTE was defeated in Sri Lanka, "Recent reports reveal that remnant LTTE cadres and leaders are regrouping in Tamil Nadu." The possibility of LTTE's remnant cadres using India and especially Tamil Nadu as a rear base for their regrouping activities and the possibility of them entering in the guise of Tamil refugees cannot be ruled out, reported the Indian media quoting the Home Ministry statement. Quoting sources, media reports said that LTTE sympathisers were posing a threat to India as they continue to spread anti-India sentiments through the medium of Internet. Certain remnant cadres have been noticed in Tamil Nadu and an extension of ban on LTTE was required, sources added.

The Maharashtra anti-terrorism squad (ATS) said that Indian Mujahideen (IM) is a creation of Pakistan's Inter Service Intelligence (ISI), reports The Times of India. This was mentioned in the 13/7 triple blasts charge sheet. This is the first time that any police agency in the country has openly said that IM has been created by the ISI. Several police agencies had earlier said that IM was a splinter faction of the Students' Islamic Movement of India (SIMI), which was banned in 2001. The IM was banned on June 2, 2010. In its 4,478-page charge sheet against the four arrested accused filed before a special Maharashtra Control of Organised Crimes Act (MCOCA) court on May 25, the ATS said, "The IM has been expressly created by (the) ISI of Pakistan ostensibly to spread terror in this country through Indian front outfits."

Forensic investigations into the 13/7 Mumbai blast cases revealed that the accused relied on the internet to find out developments in the case, reports The Times of India. The Police found several computer files which show that the accused were keeping daily tabs on the investigations. Pictures of the nine accused in the 2006 Malegaon serial blast cases were also found in their computer. Investigations show that the Opera House bomb was planted at 1.30pm while the Zaveri Bazar bomb was planted at 6pm. The anti-terrorism squad (ATS), probing the triple blasts, had seized a computer and several DVDs from Habib Mansion in Byculla (East). The room was taken on rent by arrested accused, Naqi Ahmed and Nadeem Akhtar, and was reportedly used by Indian Mujahideen (IM) leader Yasin Bhatkal alias Imran and two suspected Pakistani bombers. The Police also found a Tata Photon, a USB connection to use internet, attached with the seized computer. The forensic analyzer, in the report, stated that they also found contents in Muslim language. But observers say there is no specific language in India which could be called a Muslim language. The hard disc analysis showed that the suspected accused had been surfing net to read stories about bombs blasts across the country. Moreover, pictures related to blasts in Mumbai and Pune's German Bakery was found in the hard disc.

These talks were earlier supposed to precede the Siachen issue but the schedule was reversed reportedly at the behest of Pakistan.

Hindustan Times on June 5, reported that, investigations into the 13/7 Mumbai serial blasts has led government agencies to Haryana’s Mewat District, known as the birthplace of the Tabhligi Jamaat religious movement. It is learnt that some of the most wanted terrorists in the country have used the District, as a safe haven or a transit point. During the interrogation, arrested IM operatives have disclosed that top IM terrorists Riyaz Bhatkal and Haroon Rashid Abdul Hamid Naik had stayed at Mewat to escape arrest. Ahmad Zarar Siddibappa, alias Yasin Bhatkal, too, has narrowed down on the District, Police sources said. Yasin had stayed in Mewat after his cover in Darbhanga (Bihar) and Delhi was busted by the Delhi Police special cell along with the Intelligence Bureau (IB), added police sources. Mewat has been the place where most top IM terrorists have sought refuge after they conducted the blasts at Varanasi in 2006, and Jaipur and Delhi in 2008. Police sources further said Riyaz’s presence was last reported in 2008, after which he crossed over to Pakistan. Apart from the district’s proximity to the Capital, the area is on National Highway No 71-B and provides connectivity to West Bengal, Bihar and Uttar Pradesh

Sahar Samay reported on June 5, 2012 that according to US Congressional Research Service (CRS) report, "There is ongoing conviction among US officials that sanctuaries in Pakistan have allowed Afghan militants to sustain their insurgency and that elements of the ISI continue to support them”. The CRS said ISI is also regularly linked to anti-India terrorist groups, including the Lashkar-e-Toiba (LeT), responsible for the November 26, 2008 (26/11) attack on Mumbai. "Some reporting has cited Afghan insurgent commanders claiming that in the latter months of 2011 the ISI increased its direct contacts with the Taliban, vigorously encouraging more violence, and even supplying them with new high powered explosives manufactured in Pakistan," said the CRS, which as the name suggests, is the independent research wing of the US Congress. CRS said that the classified NATO report, detailing information gathered through thousands of interrogations of captured Taliban and Al-Qaeda militants, was leaked in January 2012 and reportedly indicates that Afghan insurgents continue to receive direct support from the ISI. The report further offers that, "Pakistan's manipulation of the Taliban senior leadership continues unabatedly," and "Senior Taliban leaders meet regularly with ISI personnel, who advise on strategy and relay any pertinent concerns of the government of Pakistan."

The Maharashtra Anti-Terrorism Squad (ATS) has claimed that the funds received by Indian Mujahideen (IM) operative Yasin Bhatkal from Dubai through the hawala (illegal money transfer) channel were used to send recruits to Pakistan to receive terror training, as reported on June 5, 2012 by dnaindia.com. Apart from being used in the July 13, 2011 (13/7) blasts, the funds were also used to pay the deposit for the Habib Mansion flat in Mumbai. The ATS, in its chargesheet, said, “During the course of investigation it has transpired that Yasin Bhatkal has utilised the money received by him through hawala for paying the deposit of the rental room in Mumbai and other places. The funds were also distributed to other members for the purpose of causing terrorist acts and sending Muslim youths to Pakistan for terror training”. Until now, the investigators had claimed that only Bhatkal, alias Shivanand, was in touch with arrested Delhi-based hawala operator Kawalnayan Pathreja. However, investigations have now revealed that Wakas Shaikh, one of the planters in the case, was also in touch with Pathreja. “We had seized two broken mobile phones and two pocket diaries from Pathreja’s residence, but one of the diaries contained a page of the month of July wherein the name of Wakas Shaikh was written by Pathreja. This means Wakas was in touch with him and some dealing had taken place in the month of July between them,” said the officer. Further, Investigations revealed that suspected Pakistani bomber Waqqas (Wakas Shaikh) had helped his co-accused steal two Activa scooters from Grant Road and V P Road areas a day before the explosions, as reported by The Times of India. Last week, the ATS arrested Naqi Ahmed and Nadeem Akhtar for stealing two bikes and two Activa scooters. In its chargesheet, the ATS said that Waqqas had accompanied Ahmed and Akhtar when they went to steal the vehicles.

Investigations revealed that the Indian Mujahideen (IM) operatives had used social networking websites, and that's how they managed to stay under the investigators' radar, as reported on June 6, 2012 by rediff.com. The investigators also found that some IM operatives were trying to conduct recruitments through their Facebook accounts. The IM has been quick in the use of technology when it came to planning and executing their operations. They started out with the use of email, then moved on to chats and later Skype, a video conferencing application. However, when the Police finally realised, the cadres improvised by using the 'save draft' option and the cache to store their messages in accounts which were accessed through a common username and password. The police say that the cadres had started using social networking websites as far back as 2008, but it was only used as backup. However, post 2008, because of strict monitoring by investigators; the cadres started using social networking websites extensively

Investigators probing the July 13, 2011 (13/7) triple blasts have learnt that Delhi-based hawala (illegal money transfer) operator Kanwalnayan Pathrija not only transferred funds for the bombings, but also used three SIM cards obtained on fake documents as reported by The Times of India on June 6, 2012. The SIM cards were from a set of cards provided to operatives of Indian Mujahideen (IM). According to the chargesheet filed by the anti-terrorism squad (ATS), suspected Pakistani bombers Waqqas Shaikh and Tabrez alias Danish, arrested accused Naquee Ahmed and Nadeem Akhtar and wanted accused Tehseen Shaikh and Muzaffar Kola had used SIM cards which were obtained using forged documents. "Pathrija (42) used three such SIM cards," said an ATS officer. "We have obtained the call detail records of these SIMs." The ATS chargesheet in the 13/7 case also mentions that the DNA of a woman was found in Byculla's Habib Mansion, the building where the suspected bombers stayed. "We had sent several seized items to the state forensic science laboratory for analysis. The forensic reports state that one of the three toothbrushes seized by the police from the room contains a woman's DNA," said an ATS officer. "It is likely that a family stayed in the room before the bombers rented it. Our probe has not reaveled the involvement of a woman, but we are probing all angles," the officer added.

The centre on June 6, 2012 told the Supreme Court that a red corner notice has been issued against Indian Mujahideen (IM) operative Fasih Mehmood for his alleged role in various terrorist activities, but refuted his wife's claim that he was abducted in a joint operation by Indian and Saudi Police in Dubai, according to Hindustan Times. Additional Solicitor General Gaurab Banerjee also submitted to the bench of justices K.S. Radhakrishnan and J.S. Khehar, a copy of the "red corner notice (RCN)" which was issued through Interpol and carried a warning, that Fasih "may be armed, dangerous and violent." The notice stated that 30-year old Fasih, a resident of Bihar's Darbhanga district, was a member of the IM and responsible for the Pune German Bakery blast on February 13, 2010; Bangalore Chinnaswami Stadium blasts on April 17, 2010 and Delhi's Jama Masjid shootout and blast on September 19, 2010. During the course of investigation, 7 persons were arrested and interrogated. They voluntarily confessed that they along with Fasih Mehmood and other absconders belong to the banned outfit called IM. The absconding accused Fasih Mehmood is an active member of IM since 2003. At present the absconding accused is hiding himself in Kingdom of Saudi Arabia. It was submitted that several cases under various Indian Penal Code (IPC) sections like 120B (criminal conspiracy), 121 (waging or attempting to wage war against India), besides various provisions of the Explosives Substances Act and Prevention of Damage to Public Property Act have been lodged against Fasih. Further, the centre told the Supreme Court that its agencies had no role in alleged arrest of Fasih Mehmood on May 13, 2012, according to The Times of India. Responding to the court's notice, Gaurab Banerjee told a bench of Justices K S Radhakrishnan and J S Khehar that its investigating agencies neither accompanied Saudi Arabian Police in effecting the alleged arrest nor had he been brought to India. Banerjee said "The external affairs secretary and the home secretary have conveyed that neither Indian agencies nor its officials were part of any alleged action to arrest Fasih in Saudi Arabia. It is not correct to say that Indian police arrested him. He is not in India”.

He has not been arrested so far owing to his medical condition, reports The Hindu. Muzzafar Kola, owner of the Dubai based company Muzzafar Kola Enterprises, was in Bhatkal, Maharashtra, even as the ATS charge sheet listed him as a wanted accused. ATS chief Rakesh Maria said, “We have given it in the charge sheet. We know he is in Bhatkal. He has undergone surgeries. Because of his medical condition we have not arrested him. What's the point of arresting him when he would be in the hospital instead of jail? We have said in the charge sheet that his passport has been confiscated so that he does not move out of the country.”

Indian Mujahideen (IM) operative Mohammad Qateel Siddiqui, accused of executing terror attacks in Bangalore and Delhi and involved in the attempt to blow up Pune's Dagadusheth Ganapati temple, was strangled to death by two other prisoners in a high-security cell of Pune's Yerawada central jail on June 8, 2012, reports The Times of India. Siddiqui was in custody of the Maharashtra Anti-Terrorism Squad (ATS) since May 3, 2012. He was handed over by Delhi Police, who arrested him on November 22, 2011. The terrorist was believed to be a close associate of Yasin Bhatkal, the main suspect in a string of terror attacks. Prison Superintendent S.V. Khatavkar, who was later suspended by the Maharashtra government for the security lapse, said that Siddiqui was found dead in his 10 ftx10 ft cubicle in the 'anda' cell of Yerawada. "We later learned that gangster Sharad Mohol and his aide Alok Bhalerao, who were also lodged in the anda cell, had strangled Siddiqui to death with a drawstring from a pair of shorts around 9.45am," he said. Further, the Maharashtra government has now asked prison authorities to separate terror accused from other high-profile criminals, according to Hindustan Times. The directive was issued soon after Siddiqui’s murder came to light, said Police sources. The directive is significant considering Arthur Road, Yerawada and Nagpur central jails hold high value criminals including Ajmal Kasab, the Pakistani national convicted for his role in the 26/11 terrorist attacks. Apart from him, the state is particularly concerned about the key IM operatives arrested in the 13/7 Mumbai serial blasts which includes Haroon Rashid Abdul Hamid Naik, Naquee Ahmed, Nadeem Sheikh and Kanwar Nain Wazirchand Pathrija. All the four accused are currently in Arthur Road jail in Mumbai which also houses key Chhota Rajan henchmen facing trial in various cases.

The Union Ministry of Home Affairs (UMHA) has given approval for the setting up of Coastal Police stations in Malabar Coast as reported on June 8, 2012 by The Times of India. The central government will also provide infrastructure facilities for the setting up of coastal Police stations. Minister of State for Home, Mullappally Ramachandran, said that the Central government had decided to sanction fund for the setting up of coastal Police stations in the wake of the findings that the coastal regions and terrestrial waters were utilized by the anti-national forces for carrying out extremist and terrorist activities in the country. The stations will be set up at Vadakara, Mahe and Thalassery, said Mullappally. Already sanctioned Coastal Police stations in the state are Vizhinjam (Thiruvananthapuram), Neendakara (Kollam), Thottampally(Alapuzha), Fort Kochi (Ernakulam), Azhikkode (Thrissur), Beypore (Kozhikode), Azheekkal (Kannur) and Thalangara (Kasargode).

The Centre on June 11, again denied that engineer (and alleged Indian Mujahedeen operative) Fasih Mohammad from Bihar, who had gone missing from Saudi Arabia after being allegedly picked up by Indian intelligence sleuths on May 13, was in the custody of any Indian law enforcement agency, reports Indian Express. The Delhi Police also filed an affidavit in the Supreme Court to this effect. Appearing for the Union of India, Additional Solicitor General (ASG) Gourab Banerji also said the Government of Saudi Arabia, with whom the Indian ambassador had held two meetings on the issue, were “neither confirming nor denying” if Fasih is in the custody of that country’s police. To a question from the Bench if Fasih was alive or not, the ASG said, “We have no knowledge as they (Saudi authorities) are not saying anything.” He said there would be “some information” within 10 days.

The National Investigation Agency (NIA) estimates that the face value of Fake Indian Currency Notes (FICNs) in circulation is over INR 160 billion, Indian Express reported on June 11. “The quantum of fake currency floating around in the country is enough to keep the terrorist machinery well-oiled and running. The closest that one possibly gets to a figure is the one calculated by a government committee in 2011 — over Rs 16,000 crore,” says the NIA report. Such notes, believed to have been routed from Pakistan, have been seized not only from India but also from Nepal, Bangladesh, Afghanistan and Holland, says an NIA report, which also names Denmark, Singapore, Sri Lanka, Malaysia, Thailand and the UAE among the countries from where FICN is being sent. “The FICN is being pumped either with the help of active terrorists infiltrating through our borders or with the help of couriers who travel to Dubai, Bangladesh, Nepal and other countries and then supply the FICN to border smugglers in exchange for a proportionate amount of genuine Indian currency,” the NIA report further said.

The Special Maharashtra Control of Organised Crime Act (MCOCA) court, on June 11, postponed the recording of the statements of the accused in the July 11, 2006 Mumbai serial train blasts after the defence moved an application seeking to record the testimonies of two witnesses, according to Indian Express. One of the defence lawyers, Advocate Abdul Vahab Khan, moved an application seeking permission to examine a metropolitan magistrate, who had recorded statements of arrested accused under the Code of Criminal Procedure (CrPC). Special judge Yatin D. Shinde will decide on the application on Tuesday (today). The court, meanwhile, allowed another application seeking permission to recall a witness, who had already deposed before the court as a prosecution witness. “This witness is a sanctioning authority and sanctioned most cases between 2005-08 and has claimed that the banned organisation Indian Mujahideen (IM) was responsible for all the blasts between this period. We need to examine him on certain aspects, which he has earlier told the court,” said Advocate Khan. The Maharashtra Anti-Terrorism Squad (ATS) probing the case had arrested 13 accused claiming they were members of the banned organisation Student’s Islamic Movement of India (SIMI) and Lashkar-e-Toiba (LeT). The agency in its chargesheet had charged them under various sections of Indian Penal Code, MCOCA and Unlawful Activities (Prevention) Act.

With a view to check circulation of Fake Indian Currency Notes (FICNs), the Uttar Pradesh (UP) government on June 11, directed banks to be especially alert in order to check the menace and ensure security of automatic teller machines (ATMs) installed on the Indo-Nepal border, reports moneylife.in. Parliamentary Affairs Minister Mohammad Azam Khan said, "We have directed banks to ensure special alertness to check circulation of fake currency (FICN) and emphasise on security of ATMs installed on the Indo-Nepal border". The minister said that the state government was also going to direct the Police to not only arrest those caught with FICN but also arrest the sources from where they got it. The Times of India adds that admitting the menace of FICN, the minister said that there is nothing to hide about the fact that the number of fake currency cases are on the rise in the state. At times, incidents of fake notes from bank ATMs had also come to light, the minister said, adding that in view of this Reserve Bank of India (RBI) had been requested not to allow money into ATMs manually and deploy guards there after their character verification. The Pioneer further reports that the Akhilesh Yadav Government is considering proposing an amendment to the Indian Penal Code (IPC), making banks or ATMs equally responsible if they issue counterfeit currency to any customer. Khan added, “We will amend the IPC and send the amendment to the Central Government for approval”. Khan revealed that 18 cases had been registered so far in connection with counterfeit currency notes in the State.

Terror group Lashkar-e-Toiba (LeT) has built their own Voice Over Internet Protocol (VOIP) network that allows secure communication over the Internet, free of monitoring from authorities, as reported by therightperespective.org on June 12. The private system, known as Ibotel, is similar to other VOIP networks like Skype that encrypt audio signals into binary data. But because Ibotel was created privately by tech exports recruited by the terror network, it has so far been impenetrable by Indian authorities. According to a senior government official, “And even if we know their IP addresses and the time and date of their audio or video calls, we remain technologically handicapped because we can’t intercept what transpired between them”.

India has requested the US to provide it access to the November 26, 2008 (26/11) Mumbai terror attacks accused and Lashkar-e-Toiba (LeT) operatives David Coleman Headley and Tahawwur Hussain Rana, reports NDTV.com. On June 13, India raised the issue with the US when External Affairs Minister S.M. Krishna met US Secretary of State Hillary Clinton in Washington for the third round of strategic India-US dialogue. Both Headley and Rana are currently in the custody of US authorities. Headley is accused of conducting recce of 26/11 targets for the LeT, which carried out the attacks. However, Rana was acquitted of federal charges that he aided the terrorists who carried out the attacks. At a joint press conference with Clinton, Krishna told reporters, "India's interest in further access to Headley and Rana, in accordance with our legal procedures, for the investigations into the Mumbai terror attack of November 2008, was raised." In response, Mrs Clinton said the two countries are sharing information related to terrorism and other related issues. "With respect to information-sharing it is our policy and practice to share information, and we do that. I'm not going to go into details because we think our cooperation on intelligence-sharing, on homeland security issues, on counter-terrorism has gotten to a new level," she said. However, The Hindu added that Krishna noted that the U.S. had not briefed India on any progress in the case of Hafiz Saeed, the alleged mastermind of 26/11, on whose head the Obama administration recently placed a USD 10 million bounty. Krishna also implied that no further promises had been made by the US regarding India’s years-old plea for further direct access to Headley. While the U.S. defused growing anger and suspicion in the Indian corner by granting India’s National Investigation Agency (NIA) access to Headley for ten days in June 2010, additional opportunities to question him have not materialised.

Bangladesh envoy to India Tariq Ahmad Karim on June 14 asked India to have patience with Dhaka over the issue of handing over of United Liberation Front of Asom (ULFA) ‘General Secretary’ Anup Chetia, who is presently in a Bangladeshi jail, reports Nagaland Post. “India and Bangladesh are friendly neighbours and India has been requesting Bangladesh to extradite Anup Chetia like other Indian terrorist, but he (Chetia) has applied for political asylum and that takes legal course of action,” Karim said. “India must have patience and definitely our government will act on this issue according to the law of our land,” Karim said. However, Karim also said that if Chetia had not applied for political asylum like some of the ULFA leaders, he would have been pushed back to India long before. Karim said, “Bangladesh too is fighting against terrorists. We don’t provide shelter knowingly to any terrorists on our soil so we are also acting on the issue.”

Minister for External Affairs SM Krishna, referring to the Pakistan-India peace process, said Jama’at-ud-Dawa (JuD) Chief and founder of Lashkar-e-Toiba (LeT) Hafiz Mohammad Saeed was still using the country for a ‘hate India’ campaign, adding that to normalise relations, Pakistan has to help “checkmate” terrorists groups, reported The Express Tribune on June 15 (today). Krishna said that the leadership of Pakistan had assured India that the former’s territory was not going to be used for ‘anti-India’ activities, but it was apparent from watching Pakistani television that JuD Chief Hafiz Saeed was still free. “We know for a fact and have evidence and we can see it on Pakistani TV that the brains behind the Mumbai attack (also known as 26/11), goes scot-free in Pakistan, still carrying on a hate India campaign.”

The officers of the Maharashtra anti-terrorism squad (ATS) interrogating Indian Mujahideen (IM) operative Mohammed Kafeel Ahmed, in connection with July 13, 2011 (13/7) triple blasts in the city, have said that he is the key conduit in what is believed to be a well-spread out hawala (illegal money transfer) network that channels underworld money to the terror group. Kafeel, the caretaker of a local mosque and well-versed with scriptures, travelled across the country to spot and train fresh recruits into the IM cadre, ATS officials said. The interrogation has also revealed that Kafeel knows how the INR 3.75 crore ransom collected in the 2001 kidnapping of shoe baron Partho Roy Burman in West Bengal was routed through hawala channels. The Intelligence Bureau (IB) and Research and Analysis Wing (RAW) believe that the money was used to fund the 9 /11 World Trade Centre attack in US, as well as the attack on the American Center at Kolkata in 2002, and that the kidnapping was carried out by persons who went on to form the home-grown IM. His interrogation has revealed over a dozen names that play a crucial role in the IM set up. Kafeel, along with Muzaffar Kola could throw light on terror financing through hawala networks, said police sources. Kola, whom the ATS alleges to be the key person who channelled INR 10 lakh to 13/7 mastermind Yasin Bhatkal through his hawala network, was also involved in the transfer of ransom money in the Burman case.

Sources said, "These 13 people are potential witnesses in the NIA case filed against Headley and Rana”. Further, an official said, "Since extradition of both these accused seemed almost impossible, India has asked the US to explore an option of video-conferencing to depose them for trial”.

India has for the first time lodged a strong protest with Pakistan and given concrete evidence proving that Indian Mujahideen (IM), which has been responsible for a series of bomb blasts across the country, is a front of terror outfit Lashkar-e-Toiba (LeT), as reported on June 18, by Deccan Herald. New Delhi has also categorically told Islamabad that LeT was using the Pakistani soil to give training and other logistical support to the IM. The issue was discussed at length during the recently concluded home secretary-level talk in Islamabad. Pakistan’s intelligence agency, Inter-Services Intelligence (ISI), has for long been trying to project that IM was India’s internal problem of 'home grown terror' as most of its members were Indians. The basic idea of ISI, intelligence sources said, behind floating IM was to show that terrorism was India’s own domestic issue and that Pakistan has nothing to do with it. But Indian intelligence and security agencies have now busted that myth giving a complete list during the secretary-level talks to Pakistan of LeT’s terror camps in Pakistan where IM cadre, comprising mostly Indian recruits, were being trained. The details of this elaborate dossier reveals that LeT was using at least five camps in Pakistan-occupied-Kashmir (PoK) to train IM terrorists in use of making Improvised Explosive Devices (IEDs) and training of arms and ammunitions. These important camps, which have been on the radar of Indian agencies, are: Bait-ul- Mujahideen at Shawai Nalla; Al Massada, Ibn Taymiyya, Abdullah Bin Masood, Masker Al Aqsa. All these training camps are in Muzaffarabad in PoK. The dossier also states that most of these men are 'launched across the border' mostly through the Maskai-e-Ummalkura which is basically a tent camp used for transit close to the Indian border. The details provided by the Indian side go on to reveal that the top LeT commanders like Abu Muzammil and Abu Sama, are actively involved in training the IM terrorist. These two LeT operatives often cross over into India also to supervise Lashkar operations in the Kashmir Valley, particularly in North Kashmir. In addition, India also reiterated that the two founders of IM, Riaz and Iqbal Bhatkal, continue to live in Karachi under the ISI’s protection. “Information was also provided to Pakistan as to how Indian youth from various parts of the country are taken to Pakistan through Nepal and Bangladesh for training. This is the first time that India has taken up the IM issue with Pakistan so strongly,” a senior home ministry official said. The current chief of IM in India, Yasin Bhatkal, who is still on the run, is also suspected to have been trained by the LeT at these training centres in Muzaffarabad.

Hizb-ul-Mujahideen (HM) militant Shakeer Ahmad alias Chhota Hafiz, who was carrying a reward of INR two million on his head and was wanted to the National Investigating Agency (NIA) in connection with September 7, 2011, blast outside Delhi High Court, has sent feelers to the security agencies that he was ready for surrender along with some other militants on some conditions, according to Daily Excelsior. Confirming the conversation, top official sources said that Chhota Hafiz was presently hiding somewhere in Warwan hills in Kishtwar District. "Though we would like Chhota Hafiz and other militants to surrender and face trial in Delhi High Court blast and other cases, we continued our efforts to nab them simultaneously anticipating that offer of surrender by the militants could be a ploy to delay police operations’’, they asserted. Chhota Hafiz along with Aamir Kamal alias Kamran and Junaid Akram Malik were wanted to NIA in the Delhi High Court blast. All three carried a reward of INR two milion each on their head — INR 1 million announced by the NIA and an equal amount by the State Government. Sources said Chhota Hafiz, Kamran and Junaid Malik along with another HM militant, Mohammad Shaffi were all camping in upper reaches of Warwan but were putting up separately to avoid getting trapped together by the security forces.

Home Ministry issued an alert on the possibility of a terror strike by Lashkar-e-Toiba (LeT) modules in the coming weeks, reports Oneindia.in. The alert was issued to both the Mumbai Police and the Odisha Government. There were reports on June 21, which mentioned the possibility of terror strikes by terrorist groups, but the Home Ministry on June 22, stated that their alert was based on inputs received from Assam Police with chances of LeT targeting the Puri Rath Yatra in Odisha. The fact that the LeT has been recruiting Assamese youth for terrorist activities since 2001 unravelled the gravity of the situation. Security agencies are taking into consideration this fact and heightened alert. The LeT is understood to be remarkably expanding their base in the North East, especially the Bangladesh border areas that have seen many insurgent activities. The terror alert has been communicated to all State Police officials and has also warned of a possible strike by the LeT in Mumbai (Maharashtra) as well. With the real plan for the strike yet to be known, the security officials are on an overdrive to find out the possible target of the group.

Lashkar-e-Toiba (LeT) terrorist Abu Jindal (Jundal), who is in Delhi Police's custody, has confessed his active role in the November 26, 2008 (26/11) Mumbai attacks, saying that Jamaat-ud-Dawa (JuD) ‘chief’ Hafiz Saeed was present in the Karachi (Pakistan) control room when the 26/11 masterminds were controlling the events, as reported on June 26, by IBNLive. According to officials, Jindal was one of the five handlers present in the control room in Karachi. He was directing terrorists carrying out 26/11 attacks at every step. He also coached the 26/11 terrorists to pose as members of fictitious terrorist organistaion- Deccan Mujahideen to misguide the investigation, according to The Times of India. According to IB sources, during the interrogation, Abu Jindal has admitted to handling the attack on Nariman House during 26/11, reports IBNLive.

As per the details, he was actually involved in guiding and directing the terrorists at every step during 26/11 attack. Jindal has also admitted of travelling along with Ajmal Kasab (the lone terrorist arrested) and other terrorists on the same boat to the Indian border. Kasab's testimony, earlier to Mumbai Police, names Jindal for seeing off the 10 attackers at Pakistan shore. Abu Hamza, Abu Qaafa and Lakhvi were the others. According to NDTV, Jindal has 10 aliases and was sent to Saudi Arabia by LeT to gather funds for another major operation after 26/11. The Times of India quoting sources said, "Abu Jundal knows the Bhatkal brothers - Riyaz and Iqbal, bosses of Indian Mujahideen based in Karachi -- very well.

The suspected IM operatives get detailed briefing from their mentors about their missions while staying in Saudi Arabia. The modus operandi allows Pakistan to brief IM agents without them travelling to the neighbouring country. IM agents then return to India without Pakistan visa on their passports to avoid suspicion.

A three-day Asia summit on homeland security and counter-terrorism concluded in London on June 27, with a call for more investment in security infrastructure, reports The Hindu. The summit, claimed to be “the first initiative of its kind’’ to bring counter-terror experts, decision-makers, academics and diplomats under one roof and attended by experts from India and Pakistan, discussed the “needs and challenges’’ of Asian homeland security in the age of terror. An important component of the summit was to boost global weapons trade in the emerging Asian markets as countries in the region step up spending on homeland security amid fears of increased terror threats. India’s current annual spending on internal security estimated around USD 17 to 18 billion, is expected to go up significantly in coming years, making it one of the most sought-after markets in Asia for western weapons suppliers.

advisor to the Prime Minister Raja Pervez Ashraf A. Rehman Malik told media persons in Islamabad that no state institutions were involved in the Mumbai strikes. Malik stated, "Abu Jundal is an Indian, he has committed attacks in India, caught in India. India's own Taliban is emerging”. The interrogation of Abu Jundal, the 26/11 handler, has turned out to be an expose of LeT links with the Indian Mujahideen (IM), Jundal has confessed his links with IM, as reported on June 28, by dnaindia.com. NDTV reported on June 28 that Jundal is the highest ranking Indian in LeT and was recruited in 2005. Jundal has told his interrogators that he was recruited by LeT's ‘commander’ of Jammu and Kashmir range Aslam Kashmiri, as reported on June 28, by The Times of India. He said his friend Fayyaz Kagri was the one who introduced him to Kashmiri. Deccan Herald adds that Jundal confessed that the plan to carry out 26/11 type terror strike was plotted in 2006, however, when the security agencies track down arms, ammunitions and explosives from Aurangabad in Maharashtra it was postponed and then he was asked to come down to Pakistan by his LeT bosses. Further, Delhi Police revealed on June 27, that LeT trained Jundal to fly planes. Lashkar had planned to use him and two others (Fayyaz Kagzi from Beed and Mohammad Rahil Sheikh from Thane) in 9/11-style kamikaze attacks on Indian highrise buildings and big dams. They said Jundal’s interrogation revealed that LeT had revived its ‘naval wing’ and added flight training to its ‘curriculum’.

It has been reported on June 27, by The Times of India that anti-India terror outfits operating from Pakistan have been trying to lure youth from Kerala under a slogan 'Organise without organisation'. There is a wide network that recruits youth from Kerala for Lashkar-e-Toiba (LeT). C A M Basheer, the elusive Students Islamic Movement of India (SIMI) leader from Aluva (Ernakulam District), now operating from Saudi Arabia, is the key figure. Salan alias Chottu, an Indian Mujahideen (IM) operative, had told Police that he had seen about 50 youth from South India at a safe house in Sharjah set up by IM leaders Riyaz Bhatkal and Amir Raza Khan. The gang led by Thadiyantavide Nazeer and K P Sabeer identified potential recruits and modules were formed in the 3+1 cluster (three members and one leader). Others include Sarfaraz Nawaz, Fahim Ansari, Sabahudeen and Shuhaib- all hailing from Kerala.

Union Home Minister P Chidambaram said on June 27 that the arrested November 26, 2008 (26/11) attack handler, Syed Zabiuddin alias Abu Jundal, had confirmed the role of Pakistani state actors in the plotting and execution of Mumbai attacks, reports Economic Times. He told media, "When I say state actors, at the moment, I am not pointing a finger at any particular agency. But clearly there was state support or state actors' support for the 26/11 massacre”. Jundal had earlier revealed that a waaris (heir or pointsman) of the "forces", a possible reference to Pakistan Army and Inter Services Intelligence (ISI) had overseen the entire 26/11 operation. The agencies see this as a reference to Sajid Mir, a key coordinator of ISI's Karachi project. Mir, who has allegedly served in the Pakistani Army, was also mentioned by American Lashkar-e-Toiba (LeT) operative David Coleman Headley as a key 26/11 handler. The role of Pakistani state actors is also being suspected from the location of LeT's control room in Karachi as pointed out by Jundal. He has disclosed that the control room was located at a point between Malir Cantonment, Quaidabad and Jinnah international airport in Karachi. This area houses VIPs and top officers of the Pakistan Army. Agencies feel that the control room could not have been set up in this upmarket and highly-secured locality without the connivance of Pakistan state actors like the Army and ISI.

After November 26, 2008 (26/11) Mumbai terror attacks, when pressure mounted on Pakistan to arrest Lashkar-e-Toiba's (LeT) ‘operations chief’ Zakiur Rehman Lakhvi from a camp near Muzaffarabad in Pakistan Occupied Kashmir (PoK), LeT’s Indian command Abu Jundal was bailed out by ISI, as reported on June 29, by The Times of India. After being bailed out, Jundal was asked to stay off the radar and he left for Saudi Arabia in early 2010. He was provided two IDs, one for internal use in Pakistan and one for outside the country. His passport, in the name of Riyasat Ali, was arranged by a senior LeT ‘commander’ and 26/11 plotter Muzammil, and then he fled to Riyadh. During interrogation, Jundal revealed that all LeT members had done some communication practice for Voice over Internet Protocol (VoIP) internet calls and understand the network areas of the targets. The LeT bosses also checked the SIM cards and handsets before the 10 terrorists left for Mumbai and a last-minute drill was also conducted. Special Cell sleuths are scanning Jundal's email IDs and conversations and sources said they have recovered a huge cache of information including "numbers, addresses of various module members and hideouts". With increasing suspicions that state actors have supported LeT to conspire and launch 26/11, the Union Home Ministry (UHM) is unlikely to oblige a Pakistani request to share information about Syed Zabiuddin aka Abu Jundal’s arrest, as reported on June 29, by Deccan Herald. Earlier, on June 26, Union Home Minister P. Chidambaram had said that he had received a note from Pakistan Interior Ministry Adviser Rehman Malik seeking information gathered about Jundal. The UHM is concerned that sharing information with Pakistan would hamper investigation. Zee News adds that according to reports, Jundal has revealed on June 28, before the Special Cell of Delhi Police that LeT is running several training camps in Muzaffarabad in PoK. He said that LeT has made paragliding an essential part of the training curriculum of its cadres. Based on his submission, the security agencies are now trying to verify whether Jundal also received paragliding training. Meanwhile, the National Investigation Agency (NIA) moved for his custody and registered an FIR against him and another terrorist Fayaz Kagzi for planning to organise terrorist attacks in India. Earlier, the FIR filed on June 27, is under several sections of the Unlawful Activities (Prevention) Act. According to the reports, Jundal was sent to Kathmandu in 2005 for training for two months in arms and explosives. After coming back, he got involved with the February 19, 2006 Ahmedabad blast. Further, Jundal revealed that two days before the 26/11 attack, LeT militants carried out a mock drill in Pakistan, as reported on June 29, by Indian Express. During the drill, he used the same phone number and the same satellite phone set that he would use during 26/11. Meanwhile, according to Bengal Police, he used Bongaon District in West Bengal, to sneak from India into Bangladesh before moving on to Pakistan in 2006. While he was in Bengal, he recruited youths from Murshidabad, Malda and North 24-Parganas Districts. IBNLive reported on June 28, that Abu Jundal was planning to attack the Rashtriya Swayamsewak Sangh (RSS) Headquarters in Nagpur as well as the USA and Israeli embassies in New Delhi. Sources say he has told the interrogators that Pakistani intelligence agency, the ISI, destroyed the Karachi control room after LeT ‘commander’ Zakiur Rehman Lakhvi's arrest (December 7, 2008) following 26/11.

The Times of India reports that, asserting the role of Abu Jundal, Union Home Minister P. Chidambaram commented on June 29, "In fact many missing pieces of the 26/11 conspiracy are now known to us through interrogation of Abu Jundal. He was a key operative, he was assigned the key responsibility to putting the 10 terrorists in intensive training and the customs followed by Mumbaikars.” He further said, "We think such a control room could not have been established without some kind of state support." About the presence of others in the control room and whether founder chief of Lashkar-e-Toiba (LeT) Hafiz Saeed was also there, Chidambaram said "Yes, others were present and we think one of them was Hafiz Saeed." "All this indicated that these activities could not have been carried out without some kind of state support. That is a logical inference we have to make. It is only when his investigation is complete, his interrogation is completed we will come to know who gave what support. At the moment he is being interrogated," Chidambaram said. Commenting on advisor to the Pakistan Prime Minister on Interior Affairs’ A. Rehman Mallick’s recent statement Jundal was an Indian, he said, "I agree with Rehman Malik that Abu Jundal is an Indian perhaps he was radicalised in India. I admit that. "Equally, Pakistan should admit that Abu Jundal did go to Pakistan, that Abu Jundal was part of the group which trained and prepared Kasab and nine others that Abu Jundal was in the control room and one of the masterminds and handlers of the attack.” Regarding LeT operative David Coleman Headley, Chidambaram commented, "I think the further question is whether we will get further access to Headley, whether he would be extradited to India...These are matters to be discussed with US authorities”, according to Manoramaonline.com.

A Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) source said that “The Saudi Arabian authorities have finally confirmed to the CBI that Fasih Mehmood is in their custody. The CBI has begun the process to get him back to India soon”, as reported by Hindustan Times on June 30. Mehmood is suspected of having links with the Indian Mujahideen (IM) and playing a role in two terror attacks allegedly executed by it — blast near Chinnaswamy stadium in Bangalore in April 17, 2010 and blast near Delhi’s Jama Masjid on September 19, 2010. In addition, Indian security establishment is looking at almost half a dozen persons in Saudi Arabia who may have had significant role in terrorism targeted against India, as reported by The Times of India. While most of them may be contacts of Abu Jundal, terror suspect who was deported from Saudi Arabia recently, some of them are Indians who may have been part of the former Student Islamic Movement of India (SIMI) network. A source said among the key Indian terror suspects they believe to be hiding in Saudi Arabia is C A M Basheer, the former SIMI leader, Sources indicate that Jundal has spoken about four-five of his close Indian associates in Saudi Arabia.
