As many as 160 members and sympathisers of the banned terrorist organisation Islamic State (IS) have been arrested so far from different parts of the country, the Lok Sabha (Lower House of Indian Parliament) was informed on July 2, reports First post. Union Minister of State for Home G Kishan Reddy said intelligence inputs on terror threats are regularly shared with the State Governments and agencies concerned with the advice to take appropriate steps and sensitise their field formations to prevent any untoward incident. "The National Investigation Agency (NIA) and the states police have registered cases against IS members and sympathisers and have arrested 160 accused so far all over the country," he said replying a written question. Reddy said some instances of individuals from different states including Kerala, joining the IS have come to the notice of central and state security agencies.

India’s Ambassador and Permanent Representative to the United Nations (UN), Syed Akbaruddin, on July 9, at the United Nations Security Council (UNSC) meet, highlighted the link between terrorism and organised crime and explained how the co-existence and mutation of the two can pose a major threat to international peace and security, reports Zee News. Syed Akbaruddin said, “In our region, we have seen the mutation of Dawood Ibrahim’s criminal syndicate into a terrorist network known as the D-Company. D-Company’s illegitimate economic activities may be little known outside, but for us, such activities as gold smuggling, counterfeit currency, arms and drug trafficking from a safe haven that declines to acknowledge even his existence, are a real and present danger.” “Success of collective action to denude ISIL (Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant) is a pointer that Council’s focused attention can and does yield results. A similar degree of interest in addressing threats posed by proscribed individuals, such as Dawood Ibrahim and his D-Company as well as proscribed entities, including the Jaish-e-Mohammad and Lashkar-e-Toiba, listed as affiliates of Al-Qaeda, under the 1267 sanctions regime, will serve all of us well,” said the senior diplomat. Akbaruddin was speaking at an open debate on 'Threats to International Peace and Security: Linkages between International Terrorism and Organised Crime'.

Malaysia detained four foreigners, including a 24-year-old Indian national who had allegedly acted as a facilitator to a senior member of Babbar Khalsa International (BKI) - a Sikh separatist group, Malaysian Police said on July 9, reports The Tribune. The suspect, a lift maintenance worker, is accused of transferring 7,600 ringgit ($1,835) to fund BKI’s activities in Southeast Asia, Malaysia’s Inspector General of Police (IGP) Abdul Hamid Bador said in a statement. The other arrestees were identified as two ethnic Rohingya from Myanmar (detained for providing support to the Arakan Rohingya Salvation Army [ARSA], the insurgent group) and a 54-year-old Philippine national with alleged ties to Abu Sayyaf, a militant organisation aligned with the Islamic State (IS).

The National Investigation Agency (NIA) Court in Kochi (Ernakulam District of Kerala) on July 9 resumed trial against Subahani Haja Moideen, who allegedly fought for Islamic State (IS) in Iraq in 2015, reports The New Indian Express. The NIA Court examined a witness in the case registered against Subahani Haja Moideen. Though the trial in the case was started at NIA Court last year (2018), it was postponed as witness examination in Kanakamala IS case was progressing. There are 55 witnesses in the case. It was during the investigation into the Kanakamala IS case that the NIA traced out Subahani who allegedly joined and fought for IS at Mosul in 2015. However, after witnessing the death of a co-fighter on the war front, he returned to India. In December 2018, a French investigation team visited Viyyur Central Jail (Thrissur District) to quiz Subahani as part of probe into the 2015 Paris attack. NIA had shared information with French authorities that Subahani fought for Omer-Kathi-Kaliph.

The National Investigation Agency (NIA) arrested two persons, identified as Hassan Ali (28), and Harish Mohamed (32) for allegedly conspiring to form a terror group in the State from Nagapattinam District of Tamil Nadu on July 14, reports Hindustan Times. The duo was arrested a day after a 14-member team of NIA officials conducted raids on July 13 at four locations in Chennai and Nagapattinam and busted a gang which allegedly conspired, collected funds and made preparations to carry out terrorist attacks in India with the intention of establishing Islamic rule in the country. The NIA said it recovered nine mobiles, 15 SIM cards, seven memory cards, three laptops, five hard discs, six pen drives, two tablets and three CDs/DVDs besides documents including magazines, banners, notices, posters and books during the raids on July 13. NIA, in its statement, said that the arrests were made on the basis of “incriminating facts revealed during the searches and subsequent investigation”. It added that Ali and Mohamed were produced in a special NIA court in Chennai and remanded in the agency’s custody until July 24. The Times of India adds that according to NIA sources, a new Tamil Nadu based terror outfit, ‘Ansarulla’ was “planning to strike at democratic institutions with terror acts in order to establish the rule of Sharia in the country”. NIA had on July 9 registered a case against three identified accused and others based on NIA’s information regarding the group’s plans to strike terror in the country, for which they had collected funds and made preparations. “The group’s intention was to strike at the democratic institutions of India with the intention of establishing supremacy of Sharia law,” an NIA officer said. The NIA also said that the accused and others “while being within and beyond India, had conspired and conducted consequent preparations to wage war against the Government of India by forming the terrorist gang Ansarulla”. As for the linkages of the Ansarulla to a known jihadi outfit like the Islamic State (IS), an officer said the same shall be established after forensically examining the documents and computer resources recovered during the searches.

Fourteen persons, deported for allegedly raising funds in the United Arab Emirates (UAE) for an Islamic State in India, were arrested by the National Investigation Agency (NIA), reports The Hindu. They were brought in a special aircraft to Chennai (Tamil Nadu) from New Delhi on July 15 and remanded in judicial custody after being produced before a special court for NIA cases in Poonamallee on the Chennai city’s outskirts. The arrests were made by the NIA following the registration of an FIR in New Delhi on receipt of credible information by the Central Government that the group which called itself Wahdat-e-Islami, along with another called Jarnab Islam Al Jihadya, was trying to establish Islamic rule in India. They had allegedly received training from the ‘Ansarullah Movement’ in Yemen. According to NIA sources, the group members were influenced by al Qaeda and Islamic State (IS) and were from Melapalayam (Tirunelveli District), Tiruvarur (Thiruvarur District), Nagapattinam (Nagapattinam District), Ramanathapuram (Ramanathapuram District) and Chennai (Chennai District). They were engaged in raising funds for the purpose of committing acts of terror. The Special Public Prosecutor, C.S. Pillai said, “The UAE authorities detained them and deported them.” They were first produced before a Delhi court on July 14 After granting transit remand, the court directed that they be produced before the jurisdictional court concerned in the State (as they hailed from Tamil Nadu), said NIA officials. The NIA named Hassan Ali Yunus Maraikayar as prime accused. Among the other members are: Mohammed Sheik, Mohhamed Azharuddin, Thoufik Ahamed, Mohammed Aksar, Moideen Seeni Shahul Hameed, Mohammed Ibrahim, Meeran Kani and Mohammed Ibrahim.

The National Investigation Agency (NIA) probe into the Islamic State (IS) terror module in Tamil Nadu revealed the terror sleeper cell’s links with the banned outfit Students Islamic Movement of India (SIMI), reports Times Now on July 17. Earlier NIA conducted raids in several locations after 14 persons were deported from the UAE on July 15 for allegedly raising funds to establish an IS unit in India. The NIA also questioned the prime accused in the case, identified as Syed Bukhari, who is believed to be a former cadre of SIMI and is the president of an outfit called Wahadat-e-Islam, which is supposedly an offshoot of the banned outfit SIMI. Bukhari was currently in Kochi (Ernakulam District of Kerala) for further questioning. According to sources, Wahadat-e-Islam was registered as a ‘social organisation’ from Saharanpur in Saharanpur District of Uttar Pradesh in 2006. The president of the organisation, Syed Bhukari is a businessman. The organisation has held several meetings across Tamil Nadu. Ever since it was established in Tamil Nadu, the group had been under the radar of intelligence agencies. However, the outfit has denied having any connection with SIMI, with its leaders claiming that it was only a religious and social organisation.

The statements of 14 Islamic radicals, who were deported from UAE and later arrested by National Investigation Agency (NIA), revealed a ‘meticulous plan to foment unrest’ in Tamil Nadu using terror modules/activities, reports The Times of India on July 17. NIA officials said one of the suspects, Hasan Ali, is an Islamic State (IS) operative assigned to collect explosives, poison, vehicles and knives and also get recruits. Ali and his associate Harish Mohammed were arrested from Nagapattinam District of Tamil Nadu on July 14 while the other 14 suspects were arrested on July 15. All 16 suspects were produced before a special court at Poonamalee on July 16 and were remanded in judicial custody till July 25. An official of the NIA said the suspects had formed several fronts, such as Wahadat-e-Islami, Jamaat Wahadat-ui-Islam-al-Jihadiya, Jihadist Islamic Unit and Ansarallah, to ‘spread terror’ and ‘establish an Islamic State’ in Tamil Nadu.

The 16 arrested members of Tamil Nadu-based radical Islamist outfit ‘Ansarulla’ busted by National Investigation Agency (NIA) last week, were inspired by global jihadi groups like Islamic State (IS), al Qaeda and homegrown terrorist outfit Students’ Islamic Movement of India (SIMI), reports The Times of India. NIA on July 18 said that the accused persons - nine of who were arrested on July 13 and the remaining seven on July 15 - had been actively recruiting individuals to strike terror in India and also routinely posting videos and other jihadi propaganda material on social media, exhorting their supporters to conduct terrorist attacks using various methods including the use of explosives, poison, knives and vehicles. NIA said Ansarulla, comprising allegedly highly-radicalised individuals residing within India and abroad, had conspired and conducted preparations including collecting money to wage war against the Government of India with the intention of establishing Islamic rule in India. According to NIA, on July 13, they had arrested nine accused namely Hassan Ali, native of Nagapattinam; Harish Mohamed hailing from Nagapattinam; Mohamed Ibrahim, native of Nagapattinam; Meeran Ghani, native of Theni; Gulam Nabi Asath, native of Peramballur; Rafi Ahamed, native of Ramanathapuram; Munthasir, native of Ramanathapuram; Umar Barook, native of Thanjavur; and Farook, native of Ramanathapuram. Subsequently, on July 15, NIA arrested seven more accused in the case namely Mohamed Sheik Maitheen, native of Madurai; Ahamed Azarudhen, native of Thiruvarur; Toufiq Ahmed, native of Chennai; Mohamed Ibrahim, native of Tirunelveli; Mohammed Afzar, native of Theni; Mohideen Seeni Shahul Hameed, native of Ramanathapuram and Faizal Sharief, native of Ramanathapuram.

The Chief Minister (CM) of Tamil Nadu, Edappadi K. Palaniswami on July 19 told the State Assembly that the State government is monitoring the activities of Islamic State (IS) sympathisers and the de-radicalisation of 36 youths with IS leanings was under way, reports The Hindu. “The activities of Islamic fundamentalists, who are owing allegiance to ISIS are being closely monitored. De-radicalisation is under process for 36 youths, who were found to be leaning towards ISIS,” he said. A special team of the intelligence wing was watching social media for posts/activities of pro-IS elements besides monitoring the IS magazines, including Dabiq/Rumiyah and Jundal Khilafah Kashmir’s (a Jammu and Kashmir-based pro-Islamic State organisation) online magazine Al Risalah, he added.

The Lashkar-e-Toiba (LeT) is working closely with Islamic State (IS) in Afghanistan and has drawn up plans with the Pakistan Army to target Indian and United States (US) assets and interests in the war-torn country, sources said on July 22, reports Hindustan Times. During a recent meeting between LeT operatives and a team of Pakistan Army and the country’s spy agency Inter- Services Intelligence (ISI) in Jaba area of Dangam District in Kunar Province of Afghanistan, the terror group was directed to attack Indian and US assets, the people, including intelligence officials and diplomats in New Delhi and Washington, said on condition of anonymity. LeT commanders were tasked to carry out different types of attacks, including with suicide bombers sent from Pakistan, they added. The move comes at a time when Pakistan is under intense pressure from the US and the Financial Action Task Force (FATF) to crack down on LeT and other groups such as Jamaat-ud-Dawa (JuD) and Jaish-e-Mohammed (JeM). LeT founder Hafiz Saeed was recently arrested on terror financing charges in Pakistan. This also coincides with reports by the Pentagon and a United Nations (UN) panel about the presence of hundreds of LeT cadres in Afghanistan. The Pentagon report put the number of LeT operatives at 300, while the UN report said 500 fighters are active in Kunar and Nangarhar Provinces alone. “LeT’s presence in Afghanistan has been observed to be steadily on the rise. According to recent inputs, Hafiz Saeed’s son Talha Saeed is taking more interest in operational affairs in Afghanistan,” said an official who didn’t want to be named. The information on LeT activities has been shared with the US and Afghanistan.

According to a charge sheet filed by the Anti-Terrorism Squad (ATS) in a Mumbai court, members of an "Islamic State (IS)-inspired" terror group arrested from Maharashtra in January 2019 for allegedly planning mass killing at a temple were inspired by speeches of controversial Islamic preacher Zakir Naik, reports India Today on July 24. The accused had tried to poison the temple's 'mahaprasad' (holy food) at the temple, it said, adding that they also underwent training for making explosives and poison and participated in blast trials at a hill near the Mumbra bypass in Thane District. As SATP had reported earlier, the Maharashtra ATS arrested 10 members of the ‘Ummat-E-Mohammaddiya’ group, allegedly having links with the terror group IS, from Mumbra and Aurangabad in January 2019 and foiled their plans of mass-casualty attacks using poisonous chemical mixtures at big gatherings. After a detailed investigation, the ATS earlier this month filed a charge sheet containing stunning revelations before a Mumbai court. According to the charge sheet, "the accused were inspired by speeches of Naik", against whom charges of money laundering have been filed by the Enforcement Directorate. The ATS found several videos featuring Naik and his images on social media profiles of the accused, it said.

A United Nations (UN) counter-terrorism watchdog set up by the Security Council said in a new report that the terror group, al Qaeda remains ‘resilient’ and continues to consider Afghanistan a safe sanctuary for its leaders and works closely with the Lashkar-e-Toiba (LeT) and Haqqani Network (HN) despite being overtaken by the Islamic State (IS), reports Hindustan Times on July 30. The Islamic State (IS) itself which has diminished with the loss of its so-called “caliphate” in Syria and Iraq, has evolved into a “mainly covert network” and its leadership is focusing on establishing “establish sleeper cells at the local level in preparation for eventual resurgence”, according to the 24th report of the Analytical Support and Sanctions Monitoring Team that was submitted to the UNSC al Qaeda Sanctions Committee this month. The reports said that, even in its current form, the Islamic State poses the most “immediate threat to global security” and remains stronger than al Qaeda in terms of its “finances, media profile and current combat experience and terrorist expertise”. But al Qaeda ‘remains resilient”, although there are questions about its leader Ayman al-Zawahiri’s health and the group’s succession plan, report said. It “continues to cooperate closely with Lashkar-e-Toiba and the Haqqani Network”, the report said underscoring the threat these Pakistan-based terrorist groups continue to pose for the region and the world. A recent US department of defense reported the existence of hundreds of LeT fighter in Afghanistan.
