"We must remain vigilant as the latent seeds of militancy may still exist," he stated. Recalling the tragic events of July 1, 2016 (Holey Artisan café attack), Faruq highlighted that in 2015-16, various militant attacks were carried out as part of domestic and international conspiracies to impede the development and progress of Bangladesh. “Following the Holey Artisan attack, our development partners halted their projects and left the country out of fear,” he said. Khandaker said the resolute stance of the Police and the people, led by Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina, was against the militants. "This demonstrated to our development partners that we are determined to uproot militancy in Bangladesh. As a result, they returned, and our journey of development continued," Faruq explained.

The Khyber Pakhtunkhwa Counter-Terrorism Department (CTD) on July 10 claimed that the militant group Islamic State (Daesh) is behind the recent targeted attacks against religious scholars and members of minority groups in the provincial capital Peshawar, reports Dawn. “The CTD has arrested Daesh affiliate Aminullah and killed another, Zafar, following their encounter with the special patrolling squad, Ababeel Force, in the provincial capital,” Additional Inspector General (AIG) Shaukat Abbas. He said on June 25, a gunman killed member of the Christian community Mushtaq and fled but he was intercepted by the Ababeel Force on the Ring Road near Garhi Qamardin area. “As soon as the gunman saw the force, he opened fire at it injuring three personnel. The force retaliated and killed him,” he said. The official also said the Police seized a pistol, a motorcycle, two SIM cards, a BRT card and an Afghan citizen card carrying the name of Khalid Khan son of Musafir. Official reveals 15-20 militants identified, CTD closing in on them. Initial investigation identified the gunman as Zafar, an Afghan national living in the Rasheed Garhi area of the provincial capital. Further investigation, especially leads from Zafar’s mobile phone, helped the CTD arrest Zafar’s father-in-law, Ameenullah, according AIG Shaukat Abbas. The AIG Shaukat Abbas said around 60 network members, who escaped from the prison after the Islamic Emirates formed the government in Afghanistan, reportedly entered Pakistan. They, however, said it was unknown how many of those militants were active. AIG Shaukat Abbas said that targeted attacks against religious scholars and members of religious minorities began in March. He said it was a challenging task to “trace the militant network and identify its members.” The official said nine people had been targeted since March and they included Sikhs, Christians, and Muslim scholars. “Scientific methods were adopted, while a pattern was followed connecting the dots. The forensic evidence showed that just one pistol was used in all these attacks,” he added.

In a significant development, the Police officials in Doda, Ramban and Kishtwar districts have succeeded in identifying “accurate locations” of around 40 militants from these districts in Pakistan and Pakistan-occupied Jammu Kashmir (PoJK) where they are operating as commanders of different militant outfits and trying to revive militancy across Jammu region especially their native districts, reports Daily Excelsior on July 12. “We have “exact locations and addresses” of 40 militants out of a total of 250 who are camping in Pakistan and PoJK from the three districts and trying to radicalize youth of Doda, Kishtwar and Ramban to lure them into militancy,” Police officials said. The mobile and landline numbers being used by the militants have also been identified, they said. At the same time, they said, Intelligence agencies continued efforts to trace locations and addresses of other militants and hopefully some more successes are expected shortly. “The process is on. Our agencies are on the job. Shortly, we will be able to trace addresses and locations of more militants,” the sources said.

On July 11, National Security Advisor (NSA) Ajit Doval stated, “Terrorism is not linked to any religion, it is the individuals that get misguided and it is probably the duty of spiritual and religious leaders to see that they can belong to any religion, faith, belief system or political ideology, but anyone who takes the path of violence will have to be countered as effectively”, reports The Indian Express. Mentioning the challenge of extremism and global terrorism, Doval said, “To preserve the security and stability within our borders and also rise to the security challenges beyond, India has been leading the fight against individuals and organisations who are promoting extremism, narcotics and terrorism.” In this context, he recalled the terrorist attack on the Grand Mosque in Mecca in 1979 and how that incident became a turning point in the way Saudi Arabia looked at itself and the rest of the world. “The attack brought the issue of terrorism to the forefront and forced Saudi Arabia to reevaluate its security measures and foreign policy,” he said.

According to Cox's Bazar District Police, at least 150 killings have taken place in the Rohingya camp from August 25, 2017, to June 2023, Bangladesh Daily reports on July 12. In 2022, 380 firearms have been recovered and 168 people have been arrested by raiding various camps in Ukhia-Teknaf. At the same time, 779 Rohingyas were caught with more than 2.6 million yaba and 29 kg of methamphetamine. In addition, 29 people have been sent to prison through the court in 18 cases related to the abduction of 136 Rohingya. Sheikh Mohammad Ali, Officer-in-Charge of Ukhia Police Station, said that day by day, some terrorist forces are being formed among the Rohingya community and they are becoming unstoppable, barbaric and uncontrolled to achieve their interests. By capitalizing on the common Rohingya population, they are engaged in a strategy to make their pockets heavier. This situation cannot be allowed to continue for long. Rohingya must return to their country. Peace and order in the region lies in the speedy repatriation of the Rohingyas. Several sources in the camp say that some of Myanmar's armed terrorist forces are directly involved in these crimes. They include the Arakan Salvation Army (ARSA), the Rohingya Solidarity Organization (RSO) and the terrorist Nabi Hussain Bahini.

The Communist Party of India-Maoist (CPI-Maoist) has strongly condemned the decision of the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) government at the Centre to implement the Uniform Civil Code (UCC), party Telangana State Committee ‘spokesperson’ Jagan said in a statement released to the media in Bhadradri Kothagudem of Telangana on July 12, reports Telangana Today. Jagan called upon the public to revolt against the ‘fascist Brahmanical Hindutva agenda of the BJP and the Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh (RSS) of the UCC. As the people’s opposition towards the BJP’s nine-year rule was on the rise, the BJP was planning to execute its divisive and communal agenda. Through the UCC, Hindutva forces want to create a nefarious divisive line based on religion prior to the five state elections and the general election in 2024. In the last nine years of Narendra Modi's rule, the Indian economy has witnessed prolonged stagnation and decline, he said. Poverty, diseases, the gap between the rich and the poor, and attacks on minorities, dalits, and adivasis have reached levels never seen before. More than 800 million people have been pushed below the poverty line. Jagan noted that the BJP was trying to divert all these from the public’s mind. There would be a threat to the religious rights of minorities, tribals, and even Hindus because of the UCC. The BJP was also dehumanising the Muslim community and wrongly projecting them. There was a need to build a mass movement against the UCC, Jagan added.

Reports of fresh 1,200 Communist Party of India-Maoist (CPI-Maoist) recruits and their training by the Maoists in the bordering District of Chhattisgarh have left Security Forces (SFs) in Gadchiroli District of Maharashtra on their toes along the 180-kilometre border with the state, reports The Times of India on July 15. Maharashtra forces, which have already alerted the Central Government about the Maoists trying to bounce back in Chhattisgarh, have put their security and intelligence units on high alert on the stretch between Kanker-Narayanpur and Bijapur national park. A senior official from the security and intelligence wings said around 1,000 cadres have been recruited by the Maoists in Dantewada and Sukma regions. Another 200–250 new cadres were recruited by the Maoists in South Bastar. "Earlier, there were barely 50–100 cadres in south Bastar and 200–400 in Dantewada and Sukma, which now have swelled to a substantial number after fresh recruitment," said the official. He said the concern was that Maoists would regroup and try to bounce back to their former strength in Chhattisgarh, which would not augur well for Gadchiroli and Gondia across the border in Maharashtra. Deputy Inspector General of Police (DIGP) Sandip Patil, also the chief of the Anti-Naxal Operations (ANO) for Maharashtra, said the central government has been briefed about the developments in Chhattisgarh, which may now affect Maharashtra too, but did not divulge further details. "Maharashtra forces are ready with strategies to counter any fresh threats," he said. It’s been learned that the Maoists are planning major attacks on Police posts that the Governments of different states are opening in their strongholds in central India. The Maoists’ ‘technical and research’ wing is said to be developing Vehicle-Borne Improvised Explosive Devices (VBIED) to blow them up near Police posts after mounting them on tractors or four-wheelers used in the rural areas. The Maoists are also developing drones to carry and drop up to five kilograms of explosives on Police Stations. In the latest issue of their mouthpiece, the Naxals [Left Wing Extremists, LWEs] claim to have well responded to the aerial attacks and surveillance in Chhattisgarh with their counter strategy.

To choke the flow of funds to Naxals [Left Wing Extremists (LWEs)] in the state, the Bihar Police has intensified its crackdown on the cultivation of illegal poppy in Gaya, Aurangabad, and Jamui Districts, reports Deccan Herald on July 16. The anti-Naxal crackdown by the Special Task Force (STF) along with other Security Forces (SFs) has dried up the weapons pipeline, leading to the number of armed extremists dropping drastically in the state, said a senior Police officer. "Now the Bihar Police, in coordination with the Narcotics Control Bureau (NCB) and other concerned wings of the government, have intensified their crackdown on the cultivation of illegal poppy in Gaya, Aurangabad, and Jamui districts in the state", Sushil Mansingh Khopde, Additional Director General (ADG-operations), STF, said. The ADG said despite law enforcement agencies destroying hundreds of acres of poppy plants each year, inputs suggest that clandestine opium poppy cultivation is present in certain pockets in Gaya, Aurangabad, and Jamui Districts. "Inputs also suggest that Maoists [Communist Party of India-Maoist (CPI-Maoist)] have been using opium cultivation as a source of revenue in these areas. They levy a 'tax' on poppy cultivators and small enterprises. Law enforcement agencies destroyed around 600 acres of poppy plantation in these areas in 2021, and in 2022, around 1200 acres were destroyed", the ADG said, adding, "The concerned district police and other agencies have been instructed to keep a vigil on clandestine opium poppy cultivation in specific areas in the district." Further, ADG Khopde said, "The number of Maoist-affected districts will further reduce in the coming months. No major Maoist incidents have been reported till June this year. Some armed cadres are only concentrated on the hills of Chakarbandha on the Gaya-Aurangabad border near Jharkhand and in the hilly areas of Jamui and Lakhisarai-Munger. The STF and Central forces have confined them there. We will soon make these areas Naxal-free."

On July 16, Baramulla Police said it conducted a massive crackdown on narcoterrorism at various locations from Uri along the Line of Control (LoC) to other parts of Baramulla District over the last few days, arresting 318 drug peddlers while recovering huge consignments of drugs, reports Daily Excelsior. Pakistan-based handlers, as part of a conspiracy, are using smugglers to push narcotics into Jammu and Kashmir (J&K) and get the younger generation addicted to drugs, the Police said. Senior Superintendent of Police (SSP) Baramulla, Amod Ashok Nagpuri, said, "Baramulla is a border district, and cross-border drugs and weapons smuggling is a big challenge for us. Over the last six months, Baramulla police have registered 187 FIRs under the Narcotic Drugs and Psychotropic Substances (NDPS) Act. Around 284 drug peddlers were arrested, and another 34 notorious peddlers were booked under PIT, NDPS, and PSA. In total, 318 drug peddlers have been arrested so far, and the law is taking its own course. The focus of this drive is to crack down on the drug culture in Baramulla district, and our endeavour is to make Baramulla a drug-free district." The SSP said Pakistan’s aim is to push drugs all over the Kashmir Valley, adding that "we will not allow the nefarious designs of Pakistan to succeed. Recently, Baramulla police froze the properties, including a house and a car, of notorious drug dealers". The SSP Baramulla also informed us further that dedicated teams have been deployed to gather crucial intelligence on the drug mafia operating in the region.

Pro-Khalistan bot activity on social media is intensifying, focusing on targeting Indian diplomats and spreading conspiracy theories, reports Hindustan Times on July 20. Recently published research in April 2023, by Network Contagion Research Institute (NCRI), a United States (US)-based independent organization that forecast cyber-social threats, suggests that these bots were behind anti-India slogans and temple vandalism incidents of Khalistan supporters in 2022. Most 'Kill India' posters and threatening messages against diplomats originate from pre-programmed Pakistani bot accounts, spreading fake news to incite against Khalistan opposition without any connection to India, sources said. The bots also push conspiracy theories, like that of India being responsible for the bombing of the Air India flight 182, the Kanishka, on June 23, 1985.

We are also looking into the possibility of Junaid having other handlers, apart from Nazir, and in that case, whether Nazir put him onto them,” a senior official stated.

A report compiled by the United Nation Security Council (UNSC) monitoring committee revealed on July 25 that the return of the Afghan Taliban to power has “emboldened” the banned Tehreek-e-Taliban Pakistan (TTP), which is seeking to re-establish control in the erstwhile Pakistani tribal areas, reports The Express Tribune. The committee, which submitted its report to the UNSC on July 25, sheds light on how the TTP is gaining momentum in Afghanistan since the Afghan Taliban took control in August 2021. The report also highlights how other terrorist outfits are using the TTP cover to operate in the war-torn country. In reality, the report has endorsed Pakistan’s stance that the TTP was operating out of Afghanistan. “Member states assess that the Tehreek-e-Taliban Pakistan is gaining momentum in its operations against Pakistan,” report says. “Since the reunification with several splinter groups, the TTP has aspired to re-establish control of territory in Pakistan after being emboldened by the Taliban takeover in Afghanistan,” the report notes. According to the UNSC report, the TTP was focused on high-value targets in border areas and soft targets in urban ones. “The TTP’s capability is assessed as not matching its ambition, given that it does not control territory and lacks popular appeal in the tribal areas.” The report, however, notes that in June, certain TTP elements were relocated away from the border area, as part of the Taliban’s efforts to reign in the group under pressure from the government of Pakistan. “The member states are concerned that the TTP could become a regional threat if it continues to have a safe operating base in Afghanistan,” the report added.
