Security officials say after one year of Indian Mujahideen (IM) 'India operations chief' Yasin Bhatkal's arrest a lot has changed with almost all the active IM modules neutralized or lying low, The Times of India reports on September 1. Intelligence agencies and anti-terror units, under the new regime, now have trained their guns on stalking cyber movement, cutting financial and logistical channels of home-grown terror groups. Meanwhile Students Islamic Movement of India (SIMI) is trying to raise its head significantly with vast reorganization of cadres. Senior officials in the counter-terror agencies say, "We cannot say IM has completely been neutralized after Yasin's arrest but his arrest came as a jolt and its cadres were caught one by one. Yasin had motivated a lot of youth in the outfit since he took over as boss in 2009, close to 50-60, and carried out a large number of attacks. During his custody, he made revelations which helped us (India) to control the activities of IM".

The Union Government ordered several states to be on increased alert after al Qaeda announced it has formed a wing in India and its neighbourhood, NDTV reports on September 4. In the video posted online, al Qaeda 'chief' Ayman al Zawahri singles out Indian states of Assam, Gujarat and Kashmir with large Muslim populations, along with Bangladesh and Myanmar, as territories targeted by the new organization. NDTV also adds that Pakistan-based Asim Umar, a top al Qaida operative, has been named to lead the Qaedat-al-Jihad, the new terror unit that Zawahri has announced will operate in the Indian sub-continent. In recent months Umer has issued a series of statements encouraging Muslim youth to take to the path of Jihad and calling for the establishment of a caliphate or Islamic state in India and its neighbourhood, a theme that also resonates in Jihadi literature and propaganda used by the Pakistan-based terror groups Lashkar-e-Toiba (LeT) and the Jaish-e-Mohammed (JeM).The Indian security establishment has in its initial analysis of Zawahri's announcement told the government that the al Qaeda-led operations in India are likely to be handled by a splinter group of the Indian Mujahideen (IM) based in Pakistan. The group, led by a man called Shiekh Armar from Hyderabad and another, Dr Shahnawaz, from Azamgarh in Uttar Pradesh, recently released a video which talked about men trained in Afghanistan fighting in India.

At least 23 youth from Manipur’s Lilong area of Thoubal District are reported to have left home to join the Indian arm of the al Qaeda in the recent months, Hindustan Times reports on September 5. “They had gone in two batches. Four have returned home while the others are untraceable,” a government security official said. The official said these recruits were first indoctrinated and trained in weapons before being placed in the actual war theatres in Afghanistan and Iraq. “Al Qaeda’s new wing could be a combination of the IM faction with Beig, Bada Sajid and Mir Sajid as its key members, some veteran al Qaeda members like Maulana Asim Umar (the group’s new chief) and Usama Mahmoud (the group’s spokesman), and new recruits from India,” a security stated.

The Hindu reports that Indian Mujahideen (IM) operative identified as Aijaz Sheikh who had sent e-mails claiming responsibility for the Jama Masjid and Varanasi blasts in 2010 was arrested on September 5 by the Delhi Police Special Cell in Saharanpur, Uttar Pradesh. Special Commissioner of Police (SP) S.N. Shrivastava stated that “Apart from sending e-mails, Ajaz used to provide logistics to the Indian Mujahideen operatives in India, prepare fake Identity Cards to procure SIM cards, collect Western Union Money Transfers (WUMT), obtain rooms on rent and even help operatives enrol themselves in professional educational institutions as a cover.

The Special Cell of Delhi Police arrested an Indian Mujahideen (IM) suspect, Ejaz Sheikh near Saharanpur Railway station on September 5, reports The Times of India. Special Commissioner of Police SN Shrivastava confirmed the arrest. "A team led by DCP Sanjeev Yadav had been tracking him since many months," Shrivastava added. Sheikh is involved in several attacks including the Jama Masjid attack of 2010. He was in close touch with Bhatkal brothers in Karachi (Sindh, Pakistan) and joined IM when Talha (an IM ideologue arrested in February, 2012) motivated youths in Pune (Maharashtra) between 2005-2008. "Sheikh said in his interrogation that he had been asked by his Pakistan-based handlers Yasin Bhatkal and Mohsin Chaudhary to reach the national capital via Lucknow, Muradabad and Saharanpur [all in Uttar Pradesh] to avoid being traced by the agencies," said a police officer. He reportedly learnt the art of using various information technology tools at an institute in Banjara Hills in Hyderabad. After the arrest of Mansoor Peerboy, an accused in the 2008 Lumbini Park blast of Hyderabad, the terror outfit hand-picked Sheikh and groomed him to be his successor, IM's head of information technology and communication wing. Incidentally, both the tech-savvy terror suspects honed their technological skills at various institutes in the city, sources said. Sheikh used to get money from Dubai and Kuwait either through Western Union or hawala (illegal money transaction) route. The entire operation of financing terror strikes and routing the money to IM executors was done by Sheikh from Pune and Mumbai. Incidentally, Ejaz did not know who the receivers were. After his interrogation, it came to light that he had arranged INR 6,80,000 for the Dilsukhnagar (Hyderabad) twin blasts of 2013, sources said. The intelligence sleuths also came to know that it was Ejaz who personally handed over explosives to Yasin Bhatkal near the Pune railway station for executing the German bakery blasts of 2010.

With al-Qaeda 'chief' Ayman al-Zawahiri announcing the launch of the Islamist terror outfit’s branch in India, intelligence agencies and Police are planning moves to identify terrorist sleeper cells in Hyderabad, Deccan Chronicle reports on September 5. A report by the Cyberabad counter intelligence cell had revealed that the sleeper cell of a terror group based on the city’s outskirts has already conducted a survey of some US-based multinational companies in the city. Officials believe that these cells could become the main tool of the al Qaeda in coming days to expand its tentacles in the city. After Zawahiri’s declaration the Intelligence Bureau (IB) alerted the Telangana Police since Hyderabad is a potential target of many terror groups including the Indian Mujahideen (IM). Top officials said that it’s time to launch measures for gathering intelligence on a large scale about terror groups. “Certainly covert activities of sleeper cells are going on in the city. If we do not act now, they will turn do dreadful things,” said a top official from the City Police. The Special Branch and Counter-Intelligence Cell in the city have strengthened their surveillance of religious institutions in the city. “The sleeper cells usually function using trained secret agents, who are assigned to gather maximum information about the area they target for an attack. They can easily blend into society without raising any suspicion. The terror agents infiltrate target institutions and live in the city, study the situation and finally carry out the attack when they receive orders from their leader,” said a senior official. Meanwhile, the Cyberabad Police has started building a directory of tenants living on the city’s outskirts. “We are going to create a database of tenants, who are staying in the commissionerate’s limits. Software is being developed to administer the database,” said a senior police official of Cyberabad.

The Centre has renewed the ban on Students Islamic Movement of India (SIMI) under the Unlawful Activities (Prevention) Act (UAPA) for another five years, saying that if its activities were not curbed, it would reorganize its activists and threaten the integrity and security of the country, The Times of India reported on February 7. The last extension, notified in February 2012, was for two years. The latest notification issued by the Union Ministry for Home Affairs, lists 21 terror cases involving activists, including the rioting at Azad Maidan in Mumbai (Maharashtra) in 2012. "During the Azad Maidan agitation, of the 10 accused arrested, one Iqbal alias Pappa Gulam Rasul Shaikh, is a member," the notification pointed out. The notification highlighted the four cases registered in Hyderabad (Andhra Pradesh) and two cases filed in Gujarat against alleged SIMI cadres since the last renewal of the ban. It pointed to the two cases in Madhya Pradesh, including the escape of six cadres from Khandwa jail in October, 2013. Another case cited relates to exchange of fire between alleged members and the Maharashtra Anti-Terrorism Squad (ATS) in 2012. The Central Government has also provided details of recent judgments pronounced by various courts against arrested SIMI cadres in Madhya Pradesh and Tamil Nadu. However, in most of the cases, the accused were let off with a fine due to insufficient evidence.

Delhi Police informed Central intelligence agencies that Indian Mujahideen (IM) had meticulously chalked out a plan to carry out multiple blasts at a Delhi market, Hindustan Times reports on September 8. The organisation had created an ‘instructional manual’ for its recruits to carry out the blasts, the Police said. Documents detailing the alleged blast attempt, intelligence sources said have been recovered from the laptop of IM militant Ejaz Sheikh.“We have retrieved several Microsoft Word files which detail the targets, the timings, the materials to be used and other instructions for operatives,” said an intelligence official. “It seems that copies of these were to be handed over — with other provisions — to IM operatives before the said bid,” the officer added.

At least 15 engineering students, including a girl, from Hyderabad, attracted to the idea of fighting alongside Islamic State (IS) in Iraq and Syria, were tracked down by the Telangana Police in West Bengal this week after their parents complained they were missing, The Times of India reports on September 11. Police sources said their investigations have revealed the outreach of the Islamist jihadists in the country was greater than previously thought. The Police did not arrest or book any of them, who were brought from West Bengal. Instead, they kept talking to them. As a result, the students gave away more names including of the girl who had said she wanted to join IS in Iraq. They had plans to fly to Iraq from Bengal. "The jihadist propaganda has been effective in luring youth who were told that the proposed Islamic State could become a reality if youth from different parts of the world joined the fight. They have a vague idea of the Islamic State and its objectives or the operation. They thought they would be fighting against tyrannical rulers and creating a new Islamic state," a Police Officer investigating the case said. Cops have identified one student from Karimnagar who was the brains. He had floated the "jihad" idea to his friends through social networking sites. Among those he was able to influence was a relative of former SIMI operative from the city accused in a terror case.The group was in regular touch through code language. As suggested by the Karimnagar boy, the other group members got passports. Some also received money from unidentified sources. The amount sent to them was in the range of about INR 3.5 lakh. "We spoke to the boys and their parents and counseled them against getting involved with ISIS. But we won't leave things at that. They're being probed and we'd like to know who sent them money," said a cop.

Investigations by Uttar Pradesh Police's Anti-Terrorism Squad (UPATS) suggest five members of banned Students Islamic Movement of India (SIMI), who escaped from Khandwa District jail in Madhya Pradesh on October 1, 2013, might be on their way to neighbouring Uttarakhand, 90 km from West UP's Bijnor District, reports The Times of India on September 22. The fugitives, who were holed up at a rented house in Bijnor district of UP, fled after explosives they were assembling, blew up on September 12. ATS from Lucknow, which raided Umri village, 25 km from Bijnor town, and Bhurapur village for over 15 hours on September 19 and 20, failed to track the SIMI operatives. A senior police officer in Bijnor said, SIMI men seem to be surreptitiously moving through the canal, sugarcane fields and forested areas on the route which connects Bijnor with Kotdwar and Kalagarh in Uttarakhand. They have already covered 45 km from Bijnor on the route to Uttarakhand and if they travel another 50 km they could well be in the hill state. With investigations revealing three fugitives Amjad, Mehboob and Aizazuddin possibly traveling along, it seems they have split into two groups, just like they did after escaping from Khandwa jail. Two others, Zakeer Hussain alias Sadiq Badrul and Aslam Ayub Khan are possibly accompanied by Saliq, a SIMI member from Khandwa.

Investigators probing the July 10, 2014 bomb blast that took place in the parking lot of Faraskhana and Vishrambag Police Stations, located adjacent to the sensitive Dagdusheth Halwai Ganesh temple, in Pune (Maharashtra) suspect the role of four absconding members of the banned Student Islamic Movement of India (SIMI) in the terror act, Indian Express reports. The suspects, Aizazuddin alias Aizaz Mohammed Azizuddin, Mehboob alias Guddu Ismail Khan, Aslam Ayub Khan and Amzad Ramzan Khan, were also allegedly involved in an explosion at a rented house in Bijnor, Uttar Pradesh, on September 12. They were allegedly assembling a bomb when the explosion took place. Another fugitive, Zakir Hussain alias Sadiq Badrul Hussain, was also suspected to be present at the Bijnor house, but his role in the Pune blast is not yet known. All five suspects, along with one Abu Faisal alias Doctor, are alleged SIMI operatives who had fled from the Khandwa jail in Madhya Pradesh on October 1, 2013.

Nearly six months after neutralising an alleged Indian Mujahideen (IM) network in Rajasthan, the Anti-Terrorist Squad (ATS) will file chargesheet this week against the IM suspects arrested from Jaipur and Jodhpur, reports The Times of India on September 17. Under the Prevention of Unlawful Activities Act and Section 121A of IPC (waging war against nation), the State Government provides prosecution sanction but the ATS waited for almost two months to get the prosecution section. It had to move the courts in Jaipur and Jodhpur twice seeking extension of the deadline twice during this period. A Jaipur court gave the ATS two more months after the agency failed to file chargesheet against alleged IM members based in Rajasthan within 90 days of their arrest. The police have to file chargesheet in this period after making an arrest but the ATS failed to conclude the investigation as two top IM operatives, Monu alias Tahseen and Pakistani national Zia-ur-Rehman alias Waqas could not be brought here on production warrant from Delhi. After that the court gave one more month's extension when the ATS again failed to file chargesheet last month. The deadline for filing chargesheet is now September 19. If ATS fails to file it by this date, the suspects have a solid ground to get bail, legal experts said.

The National Investigation Agency (NIA) filed its second charge sheet in the Dilsukhnagar twin blasts case on September 16, reports Deccan Chronicle. The charge sheet was filed against three Indian Mujahideen (IM) operatives, Mohammad Riyaz alias Riyaz Bhatkal alias Ismail Shahbandri alias Riyaz Ismail Shahbandri, Zia-ur-Rahman alias Waqas alias Javed alias Ahmed alias Nabeel Ahmed, a Pakistan national and Tahaseen Akhtar alias Monu alias Hassan alias Sameer. The NIA alleged that it was conclusively established that the main operative of the module Riyaz Bhatkal, the accused number 1, taking shelter in a neighbouring country conspired along with Ahmed Siddappa alias Yasin Bhatkal, who too was hiding in another neighbouring country, and the other accused in India. NIA said that Riyaz arranged the explosives and directed Asadullah Akhtar and Zia-ur-Rahman in Mangalore to receive the material. They took the explosives and the money sent by Riyaz. The NIA alleged that Asadullah Akhtar and Waqas reached Hyderabad and joined Tahseen Akhthar. They prepared two Improvised Explosive Device (IEDs), bought two bicycles, placed bombs and parked them at two separate places on February 21, 2013.

Engineering student, Mohammed Maroof, has emerged as the brainchild of Indian Mujahideen's (IM) Rajasthan module, The Times of India reports on September 19. He not only recruited six people from Sikar (Sikar District, Rajasthan) on instructions from his IM handlers, but also contacted people in Jodhpur to join the terror outfit. All these claims have been made in two charge sheets filed in courts in Jaipur and Jodhpur on September 18. While the ATS charge sheet filed in the court of chief metropolitan magistrate named 12 accused (six from Sikar, three from Jodhpur and three from Jaipur), the one filed in the court of Jodhpur's Additional Chief Judicial Magistrate number 1 named 10 accused, including seven from Jodhpur and three from Jaipur. The charge sheet states that Maroof was drawn towards religious fundamentalism, since he was a teenager. He came in contact with Indian Mujahideen (IM's) operatives, including Riyaz Bhatkal through Internet in the last quarter of 2012. The suspects have been charged under sections of Explosive Substance Act 1908, the Unlawful Activities (Prevention) Act 1967 and sections 120 B, 121, 121A,122, 456, 468 and 471 of the Indian Penal Code (IPC).

On September 19, terror group Ansar-ul-Tawhid Fi Bilad Al Hind (AuT) which recently uploaded a video of Islamic State (IS) 'chief' Abu Bakr Al Baghdadi with Hindi, Urdu and Tamil subtitles hailed Indian Mujahideen (IM) operatives who died in the Batla House Encounter of 2008 as its "martyrs", reports The Times of India. In a series of messages titled "Batla House — inshallah we will revenge" (sic) that began flowing on AuT's Twitter handle @isabahmedia2 since late on September 18 night, the outfit claimed that IM operatives Atif Ameen and Mohammed Sajid were martyrs and that AuT mujahideen would avenge their death and imprisonment of other IM members. The messages, in English, Hindi and Arabic, also carried pictures of Ameen and Sajid with captions calling them "shaheed". The write-up accompanying the pictures read, "We the mujahideens renew our pledge to avenge the martyrdom of Batla House encounter and other oppressed Muslims including our imprisoned brothers unless and until we establish Sharia law in India under the global Khilafah (Caliphate) wiping out all the man-made boundaries."

Two of the five suspected Ansar-ul-Tawhid fi Bilad al Hind (AuT) militants charge sheeted by National Investigation Agency (NIA) on September 22 had rejected the offer to fight in India preferring to go to Syria instead for religious war, reports The Times of India. They, however, wished that an Iraq-Syria like situation was created in India. According to the NIA charge sheet, Mohammed Shafi Armar and Abdul Kadir Sultan Armar wanted to be sent to Syria and Afghanistan with other jihadis to fight the ‘religious war’. The charge sheet says arrested Indian Mujahideen (IM) India 'operations chief' Yasin Bhatkal had asked Shafi to join him in Nepal, where Yasin was hiding before his arrest in 2013, and raise a module to fight against non-Muslims in India. Shafi, however, refused and wanted to be "dispatched to Syria to work with other jihadis and finally die in the battlefield to get heaven". Shafi further said "that he desired that India should also become like Iraq and Syria", the charge sheet adds. Similarly, Yasin had requested Pakistan-based IM founder Riyaz Bhatkal to send Sultan to Nepal, but he too chose to fight in Afghanistan and Syria. Both, according to the charge sheet, had developed contacts with al Qaeda and Taliban. Notably, it is Sultan who recently called on IM to join global jihad under the banner of AuT through a video message uploaded on the net by its 'media wing' Al Isabah media productions. The media wing is suspected to be run by Shafi Armar.

Indian Mujahideen (IM) was planning to carry out terror strikes in Muzaffarnagar town (Muzaffarnagar District) of Uttar Pradesh, UP, in retaliation to communal riots that had taken place in the region, Delhi Police sources said on September 24, reports Deccan Chronicle. The revelation came out in an email message found in the laptop of Ajaz Sheikh, an IM operative, arrested by Delhi Police on September 6 from outside Saharanpur Railway Station in Western UP. The email was supposed to have been sent via proxy servers. An email had been sent in the same manner following the Jama Masjid (Delhi) and Varanasi (Uttar Pradesh) blasts in 2010, said the sources. The email also had 'Al Arabi' signature which was the hallmark of earlier similar mails taking responsibility of terrorist strikes by the outfit. The email was a scanned copy which was drafted by Sheikh's Pakistan-based handlers Riyaz Bhatkal and Mohsin Chowdhary. Sheikh is the brother-in-law of Chowdhary and directly took commands from these two from across the border. A resident of Pune in Maharashtra, Sheikh was an India-based techie, logistics man and hawala (illegal money transaction) router of IM.

The Intelligence Bureau (IB) has warned that “groups and elements supportive of extremist ideology similar to al-Qaeda” are trying to “increase communal tension” in states like Jammu and Kashmir (J&K), Maharashtra, Gujarat, Rajasthan, Uttar Pradesh, Bihar, Karnataka, Kerala and Delhi, Deccan Chronicle reports on September 25. The intelligence report (reference no-3627-60 & 3698- 3731/C&R Cell-C-2/SII), has reiterated that al- Qaeda 'chief' Ayman-al-Zawahari, who launched a new branch for the Indian sub-continent, also intends to target commercial centres, tourist destinations, religious places, aviation sector, railways infrastructure and BJP offices in various states, including West Bengal and Assam. The report has been dispatched to all state police agencies. The report further said that the al-Qaeda had launched the new branch with the intention to spread “Islamic rule” and “raise the flag of jihad” across the sub-continent. “Groups and elements supportive of extremists ideology similar to al-Qaeda may try to increase communal tensions in the areas which are sensitive from this angle,” the report says. The IB said there could be a push by “such elements/ groups” towards “recruitment of Indian nationals from Muslim community” in several states. “Apart from commercial, tourist, religious, aviation and railway infrastructure, such groups/ individuals can also target the office of the Bharatiya Janata Party [BJP] in various places.” The intelligence agency said that it was also assessed that Pakistan based terrorist planners could always exploit the presence of yet “undetected operatives” of various groups like Lashkar-e-Taiba (LeT), Jaish-e-Mohammed (JeM) and Indian Mujahideen (IM) for conducting “terrorist attacks in India.” “The cadre of these groups are susceptible to the extreme Islamic ideology and therefore could be utilized relatively and easily and in a cost effective manner by such Pakistan based planners,” the report further said.

Muzaffarnagar city of Muzaffarnagar District in Uttar Pradesh (UP) is in jihadi crosshairs and has become a new reference point for motivating new recruits joining terror modules, Hindustan Times reports on September 30. An unnamed counter-terror official of UP Police said, “An accidental blast in a room in Muzaffarnagar’s neighbouring Bijnor town on September 12 revealed the presence of a suspected six-member module of outlawed Students Islamic Movement of India (SIMI) here. One member of the module got injured in the blast. Though, we have reasons to believe that the module was planning a terror strike in Muzaffarnagar. The members of the module are yet to be nabbed.” Central counter-terror officials say it was not the first time a terror strike was planned in Muzaffarnagar. Another unnamed counter-terror official based in Delhi said, “In March, two suspected Pakistani nationals were arrested by the UP Police who had been tasked with carrying out fidayeen attack. Again Muzaffarnagar was discussed as one of the targets.” The official added that after the arrest of Indian Mujahideen (IM) operative Ejaz Sheikh from Saharanpur in UP, a neighbouring town of Muzaffarnagar, on September 6, 2014, an ‘explosive draft email’ was allegedly recovered from Shiekh that had many references to Muzaffarnagar riots and how they should be avenged. The draft email was most likely sent by Sheikh’s key handler and IM’s top boss Riyaz Bhatkal, who is based in Karachi, Pakistan. Also, Haidar Ali, of the Ranchi module of SIMI, who was arrested by the National Investigation Agency (NIA) in May 25, 2014, allegedly spoke about Muzaffarnagar riots in his meetings where he used to spot new recruits.

Investigations by the National Investigation Agency (NIA) against key Indian Mujahideen (IM) operatives have revealed that their relationship with Pakistan's external intelligence agency, Inter Services Intelligence (ISI) has turned sour and is almost on the verge of a breakup, reports DNA India on October 1. The NIA got the whiff of it when scouring through the voluminous chats and e-mail correspondence between senior IM operatives, including Iqbal Bhatkal, Riyaz Bhatkal and Shadaab Beg, it came across that they are not happy with the ISI control and have code named ISI as kutte (dogs) for treating them as slaves living on its crumbs. He IM is now trying to forge alliance with al Qaeda and Tehreek-e-Taliban Pakistan (TTP) to intensify war against India and some of its members are even fighting against NATO forces in Af-Pak region.
