The recent fidayeen (suicide) attacks in Kathua and Samba in Jammu and Kashmir were allegedly carried out by the newly formed terror outfit, ‘Afzal Guru squad’, reports Bangalore Mirror on April 3. According to the reports, the outfit, which was formed after the hanging of the 2001 Parliament attack convict, has become a cause of concern for Indian Security Forces (SFs). Afzal Guru's hanging at New Delhi's Tihar Jail in February 9, 2013 had triggered widespread protests in the Valley, and militants had vowed to avenge the execution. The squad is also suspected to be involved in the December 5, 2014 attack on an Army camp in Mohra area of North Kashmir's Uri. Eleven security personnel including a Lt Colonel were killed in the deadly fidayeen attack. Police said many youths in Kashmir have since joined militant ranks. Handlers of Pakistan-based terror groups Lashkar-e-Toiba (LeT) and Jaish-e-Mohammed (JeM) are now adopting new tactics for 2015 by involving these freshly infiltrated youths, sources said. Earlier, terror outfits used to send militants, who used to stay on in India for a few years and carry out small attacks. But now terrorists launch attacks almost immediately after they infiltrate to this side, report added. The report also said that Commanders of LeT and JeM coordinate with each other, but they both are under tremendous pressure from handlers in Pakistan to attack security forces in the Jammu and Kashmir. They tried to sabotage Lok Sabha elections and State Assembly polls. But their designs were foiled by the heightened security in the state and elsewhere. Last year (2014) 101 militants were killed by SFs, report said.

Various inputs from Central intelligence agencies point towards the presence of groups of both Jaish-e-Mohammed (JeM) and Lashkar-e-Toiba (LeT) terrorists waiting to infiltrate at various locations along the Line of Control (LoC) and International Border (IB) in Jammu and Kashmir, reports The Asian Age on April 4. The inputs warn that LeT militants, led by one Mohammed Hussain alias Mani, are waiting to infiltrate from Derinala, while another group of five JeM terrorists has arrived from Kotli in Pakistan-occupied Kashmir (PoK) and has been camping at Shahbaz post. The group, led by its launching commander, Gul Hadiq, is learnt to have already reconnoitred the area and to be planning to strike Security Forces (SFs) by planting Improvised Explosive Devices (IEDs) along their foot-patrol tracks. Another group of three unidentified terrorists has reconnoitred the Madhole Nallah area near post Bhadur and is planning to carry out a major action, including attacking the post, said the alert. The report adds that the LeT and JeM infiltration threats are also coming from the Gurez, Rajouri and Pooch sectors, giving a clear indication of the massive plans of the Pakistan-based groups to disrupt peace in the Valley and the hinterland. The Intelligence Bureau (IB) has warned of the JeM planning to target the Communist Party of India [Marxist] (CPI-M) workers in Kashmir, particularly in Kulgam District. The IB has drawn up a list of CPI-M workers who contested Assembly elections in 2014 and may be on the Hizb-ul-Mujahideen (HM) hit list. Their security is being enhanced by local law enforcement agencies. The IB alert has been shared with all Central security agencies following a detailed assessment of the security threats emanating from Jammu and Kashmir.

Union Home Ministry officials said that Pakistan Army and its intelligence agency, Inter Services Intelligence (ISI) have directed the militants operating in Jammu and Kashmir not to carry out attacks on civilians but to target Security Forces (SFs) leading to spurt in casualties among men in uniform, report Times of India on April 6. Officials said the killing of three Policemen by militants on April 6, in Kashmir valley was a clear indication about the plans of the Pakistan-sponsored groups. Quoting intelligence inputs, the officials said the directive of ISI and Pakistan Army to terrorist groups like Jaish-e-Mohammad (JeM), Lashkar-e-Taiba (LeT) and Hizb-ul-Mujahideen (HM) came following international pressure as global powers have joined hands against terrorist violence on innocent civilians. Citing the spurt in recent militancy-related violence in Jammu and Kashmir, the officials said the two powerful establishments in Pakistan told the militants to intensify their attacks on SFs.

Police feel that 10 home-grown terror suspects, holed up in Gulf countries, including Riyadh in Saudi Arabia, pose a big threat, The Times of India reports on April 13. These suspects are wanted in various terror cases booked in Hyderabad and other parts of the country. They are also on the 'wanted' list of the National Investigation Agency (NIA), Counter Intelligence (CI) of Telangana Police and other security agencies. "Diplomatic efforts have been made to bring these conspirators back to the country, but so far it did not yield much result. The LeT [Lashkar-e-Taiba] operatives, through their strong network in Riyadh, are always a major threat to Hyderabad as they make sustained efforts, using various channels in India, to stage terror strikes,'' a senior Police Officer stated. These suspects include terror suspects like Harkat-ul-Jihad-al-Islami (HuJI) operative Mohammed Abdul Majeed (brother of the late Shahid Bilal, who was involved in the Task Force blast case), LeT operatives Mohammed Bhai (wanted in the Sai Baba temple blast), Furkhan Bhai alias Abdullah, Asad Khan alias Abu Sufiyan, Siddique bin Osman and others. Similarly, Abdul Rehman alias Farhathullah Ghori, reportedly taking shelter in Karachi (Sindh, Pakistan) is wanted in various cases, including the 2002 Akshardam (Gujarat) temple attack case. Some of these suspects are also wanted in the 2012 conspiracy to target right-wing leaders across India. According to intelligence sleuths, these suspects have been funding various terror modules for the last several years and are responsible for luring local youths into terror activities. On several occasions, they had lured Hyderabadi youths to Saudi Arabia and planned meet-ups to execute terror strikes in the country. In every instance, police could nab only the local operatives. Their handlers in Riyadh remained elusive.

Indian intelligence agencies on April 12, have warned all states and union territories about Lashkar-e-Taiba (LeT's) plans to launch fresh attacks at hotels, railway stations and metro stations in key cities over the next few months, according to The Times of India. The alert is based on inputs passed on by railway authorities in Mumbai (Maharashtra) that LeT is planning a 26/11(November 26, 2008) -type strike at hotels and railway stations in the city. The Mumbai alert had warned that around 8-10 terrorist may infiltrate through the sea route to execute the attack. The Intelligence Bureau (IB) has asked the states to increase security outside hotels, particularly five-star properties, as well as at railway stations and metro stations, even as agencies in charge of coastal security also tighten vigil. Latest assessment by the intelligence agencies state that LeT 'commander' and 26/11 accused Zakiur Rehman Lakhvi's release on April 12 in Pakistan has come as a major morale booster for LeT's rank and file, and may encourage them to launch yet another spectacular attack against India. Moreover, the Government Railway Police (GRP) in Mumbai issued instructions to all Police Stations to increase security. The intelligence alert mentions a possible attack by a group of 8 to 10 LeT militants anytime during the next three months on the railway stations and in key locations in the city. In addition, the Mumbai Police have instructed the Police Stations in the city to get all housing societies to divulge the details of their tenants, reports dnaindia.com. Police stations have also been asked to see if CCTVs installed by housing societies are in working order. "We have served notices to all residential societies of the city asking them to provide details of flats being rented, their lease agreements and details of security guards and security agencies in charge. We have also asked about the status of the CCTV cameras installed in their premises. This is a regular exercise done by Mumbai Police," said Mumbai Police Spokesperson and Deputy Commissioner of Police, Dhananjay Kulkarni. The housing societies have been warned that if they delay or do not cooperate with the police in this regard then they would be subject to prosecution.

Pakistan-based terrorist outfits like Lashkar-e-Taiba (LeT) are likely to turn their attention to India with the drawdown of US forces from Afghanistan, a top Pentagon commander told lawmakers on April 16, reports Huffington Post. "Lashkar-e-Taiba (LeT) and other Pakistan-based groups continue fighting in Afghanistan, but they will likely shift some of their operational focus to the Indian subcontinent in the next one to three years as coalition forces draw down," Admiral Samuel J Locklear Commander, US Pacific Command, told the House Armed Services Committee. In his testimony, Locklear said with new leadership in place, India is energising the US-India strategic partnership. "Prime Minister (Narendra) Modi has focused India's foreign policy on building strong regional cohesion in South Asia. India's two decade-long 'Look East Policy' has resulted in growing partnerships with Southeast Asian countries," he added.

The Lashkar-e-Toiba (LeT) founder and Jama'at-ud-Dawa (JuD) 'chief' Hafiz Muhammad Saeed held a rally in support of Kashmir separatist leader Masarat Alam in Lahore on April 17, reports IBNLIVE. This rally came right after Alam was arrested for raising pro-Pakistani slogans and waving Pakistani flag in Srinagar on Syed Ali Shah Geelani's return from Delhi. Despite the arrest, Alam remained defiant and said that the scheduled rally in Tral against the death of a youth in an encounter with Army will continue as planned. Separatist leader Syed Ali Shah Geelani though remains under house arrest. Both the Hurriyat hardliners were slated to hold a rally in Tral. The action comes after the Bharatiya Janata Party, an ally in the Jammu and Kashmir Government, threatened to skip the next Cabinet meeting if Masarat was not arrested. Masarat Alam has been booked under the Unlawful Activities Prevention Act.

The encounter of two Students Islamic Movement of India (SIMI) operatives on April 4 in Telangana has led to a threat to the lives of Police officers as Pakistan based outfits now plan to attack Police and carry out serial explosions to avenge the deaths of the terrorists, The Times of India reports on April 19. Central intelligence agencies have intercepted phone calls from Pakistan in which leaders of terror outfits Lashkar-e-Taiba (LeT) and Indian Mujahideen (IM) are heard 'vowing' to avenge the encounter killing of Aijajuddeen and Mohammad Aslam by Telangana Police. IM operative Riyaz Bhatkal is heard talking to his counterparts here in India about causing a series of explosions targeting Police Officers. "They are using the words badla lenge (we will take revenge) very soon on the conversations and have asked their men to be prepared here," said a top official. The source added that there have been calls from other Pakistan based terror leaders as well on the encounter. "The Pakistan based outfits may also use this as an opportunity to come back in prominence since security agencies have managed to contain their activities for past several months. Riyaz Bhatkal, Iqbal Bhatkal and LeT bosses are desperate to carry out attacks and enticing old inactive SIMI members in the name of revenge may work for them. We are constantly monitoring the activities of these groups," said a counter-terror official.

In view of “highly alarming reports’’ about all out attempts by the militants to infiltrate into India, the Union Ministry of Home Affairs (MHA) has decided to deploy more Central Armed Police Forces (CPFs) on the International Border (IB) behind the Border Security Force (BSF) to ensure even if the militants managed to breach the fencing, reports Daily Excelsior on April 20. Sources said there had been reports that encouraged by open support of Pakistan Army and Jamat-ul-Dawa (JuD) chief Hafiz Sayeed, over a dozen militants in full combat dresses have been camping close to the IB in Hiranagar sector of Kathua District with a view to infiltrate into this side. April 19’s shelling and firing by the Pakistan Rangers was clearly aimed at infiltration by the militants, they added. Sources further said, the MHA has decided to deploy more CPFs along the IB from Kathua to Akhnoor behind the BSF. This will help check any infiltration by the militants breaching fencing or crossing through some uncovered portions of Nullahs especially when they were flooded during the rains. Police authorities too have strengthened their positions in all border areas of Kathua, Samba and Jammu Districts to check movement of the militants.

In what clearly exposes Pakistan’s lies and lack of intent in tackling terrorism, it has now emerged that dreaded terrorist Zaki-ur-Rehman Lakhvi is being protected by Pakistan Army commandos and is staying at an Inter-Services Intelligence (ISI) safe house on Lahore’s outskirts, says an intelligence agency report to the Government, reports Deccan Chronicle on April 22. A comprehensive report given by the intelligence agencies to the Government on Pakistan’s security scenario since Lakhvi’s release said that in fact, ever since his release from Adiala Jail on April 10, 2014 Lakhvi was provided with foolproof protection by the Pakistani establishment. The report claims the Pakistan Army has deliberately deployed commandos in plain clothes to protect Lakhvi so that no one can accuse the security establishment. Pakistan has always maintained that likes of Lakhvi and Hafiz Saeed are “non-state actors”. “Even in Pakistan, there is very little information regarding Lakhvi’s whereabouts ever since he has been released from the jail. But we have some reports that suggest that he is being kept at a heavily guarded safehouse of ISI on the outskirts of Lahore where both Lashkar-e-Toiba (LeT) and Jamaat-ud-Dawa have a sizeable presence,’’ a top intelligence official said. It is feared his release will have a direct impact on terror activities in India. The Indian agencies are monitoring the situation closely for all possible information on the LeT militant believed to be the mastermind behind the 26/11 attacks.

The release of Lashkar-e-Toiba (LeT) 'commander' and 26/11 (November 26, 2008 Mumbai attack) mastermind Zakiur Rehman Lakhvi by Pakistan could be bad news for the Middle East too as the militant could "reactivate" LeT's links in Syria, including with al Qaeda networks, the Research and Analysis Wing (R&AW) warned the Prime Minister's Office (PMO) last week, The Times of India reports on April 29. R&AW has submitted a report to the PMO saying Lakhvi's release from Adilia jail in Pakistan on April 10 assumes greater significance in view of his past activities in the Middle East and said he had earlier directed LeT operations in Chechnya Republic, Bosnia, Herzegovina, Iraq and South Asia, and sent LeT operatives to Iraq to attack US forces there. R&AW also pointed out that LeT formed a 'charity wing' Falah-e-Insaniyat Foundation (FIF) in 2009, which the LeT has been using to expand its influence beyond Pakistan and specifically in Syria, officials said. FIF has also been supporting the cause of Kashmiri separatists and Palestinians but has lately started seeking funds for Syrian refugees and has been organising camps along the Syria-Turkey border to provide humanitarian assistance, the R&AW inputs indicate. The activities of FIF in the Syrian theatre could provide ready-to-use channels for Lakhvi's efforts to reactivate LeT's links in the Middle East, officials said, adding that R&AW has pointed out that militant has in the past also received donations from the al Qaeda affiliates and trained operatives for suicide bombings.

The Indian security establishment has alerted the Government about the activities of Islamic State (IS) in the Af-Pak region, named as the Wilayat Khurasan-WK (Khurasan Province) by the terror group, The Times of India reports on April 30. The alert was about the possible linkages of top WK leaders with the Pakistani establishment. India's external intelligence agency R&AW (Research and Analysis Wing) has, in a recent report to the Prime Minister's Office (PMO), pointed out how WK's military leader Asmatullah Muawiya, formerly linked to Tehreek-e-Taliban Pakistan (TTP) and al Qaeda, had made peace with the Pakistan Army last year (2014) and threatened India "in the recent times". The agency also noted that a former Guantanamo Bay detainee, who was shifted to Pakistan's custody in 2008, Abdul Rahim Muslim Dost, had been appointed as WK's religious head and a judge. He is a key member of a salafi group of Kunar, the Jamaat ul Dawa al Quran, which has links with Lashker-e-Taiba (LeT) elements in the tribal areas of Af-Pak region. According to the intelligence agencies, IS was differentiating between the developments in Af-Pak and the Middle East and North Africa. "It is pertinent to recall that while announcing Wilayats across the Middle East and North Africa, the IS had not named any groups or leaders, but it did so for the WK...while it asked the wilayats in the Middle East and North Africa to carry out jihad locally, it called on the soldiers of WK to join the jihad in Syria and Iraq," said the RAW report.
