Suspected Indian Mujahideen (IM) terrorist Danish Ansari, arrested earlier on January 21, 2013, by the National Investigation Agency from Darbhanga District in Bihar, has allegedly told his interrogators that IM ‘India Chief’ Yasin Bhatkal alias Shahrukh, was in the process of creating a "library module" which would have acted as the media wing of IM later, according to Indian Express. According to an officer, "The examination of Danish revealed that Yasin was trying to penetrate the class of Muslims youths who were educated and promised them a platform for jehadi activities”. The group stopped such visits to the library after November 2011. Danish allegedly told his interrogators that after the Darbhanga module was exposed with the arrest of Mohammed Qateel Siddiqui (later killed in Pune jail), Yasin asked him to provide shelter. "So far, we have not found Danish directly involved in any IM operation but he seems to be aware of Yasin's plans and worked as a messenger in recruiting and creating base in Bihar with the help of handlers from Pakistan," said an NIA official. According to Danish, the terror outfit is currently cash strapped and Yasin is trying to revive the group by generating donations in India. This was corroborated by other arrested IM terrorists who claimed there were orders to commit crime to finance jehadi activities. Read less...
