The National Investigation Agency unearthed a Syria-based online entity namely 'Ummimmarah' to which funds were transferred using cryptocurrency, Economic Times reported on February 13. The NIA on January 31, had filed a charge sheet against Mohammad Mohsin Ahmad, for propagation of the ideology the Islamic State (IS) and to raise funds for the organization and send the amount to his Syria based handlers through cryptocurrency channels for recruitment of youth for terror activities in India. In its chargesheet, the NIA revealed that the accused operated a crypto account with bitcoin exchange, Wazir X, which he opened and raised funds from as many as 20 entities in less than two years. The chargesheet stated that Ahmad raised money through his Canara Bank account and later transferred the funds to the Wazir X account from where the payments were made in crypto namely 'TRX' to Syria-based online entity 'Ummimmarah.' NIA officials stated that he opened the bitcoin account by providing a PAN card and Aadhaar number which helped the agencies to track him. NIA also seized hand-written notes of Ahmad which referred to 'Al-Sham', the historical name for the Greater Syria region, now commonly known as the Levant or eastern Mediterranean, as per the chargesheet. Ahmad was arrested by an NIA team from Delhi’s Batla House in 2022 after receiving information that he was actively engaged in raising funds for IS.

The Islamic State in Khorasan Province (ISKP) released its English-language magazine, Voice of Khurasan's 20th edition, titled “The Rise of Far Right Extremists in Palestine and the Silence Before Storm for the Muslims” in which they published an article of four pages with the headline of ‘Crackdown on Popular Front of India: Lessons for Indian Muslims, reports tribuneindia.in. on February 15. In the article, the ISKP urged The Popular Front of India (PFI) cadres to join the global terror outfit under its ‘black flag’. The article makes several insinuations to convince Indian Muslims that the crackdown on PFI is an apparent example of “Muslim genocide” in the country. Asking PFI members to openly embrace terrorism, it further claims “We have seen many PFI supporters join the banner of Tawheed (Islamic concept of monotheism) in different parts of the world and many have attained Shahadah. So don’t be discouraged.” The Union Ministry of Home Affairs (UMHA) in 2022 stated that some PFI members had joined the Islamic State (IS) and taken part in terror activities in Syria, Iraq and Afghanistan.
