Rapid Action Battalion (Rab) members arrested the Bangladesh chapter coordinator of Lashkar-e-Taiba (LeT), a Pakistan-based militant organisation, at Madaninagar in Siddirganj upazila of Narayanganj Wednesday night.
The arrestee was identified as Maulana Mohammad Imran, son of Mohammad Ali of Paikpara in Baniachang upazila of Habiganj, reports our Narayanganj correspondent.
Gazi Mohammad Ahsanuzzaman, director of Rab-11, said this at a press conference at the Rab-11 office at Adamji in Narayanganj town at noon.
A huge amount of counterfeit foreign currency, one mobile phone set and books on Jihad were seized from his possession.
The LeT leader used to recruit members for the organisation and prepare passports and visas to send them to Pakistan, RAB claimed.
S Sohayel, director of RAB's media and legal wing, said previously some Pakistani citizens, supposedly to be members of the militant outfit, were arrested in Bangladesh.
The law enforcers were certain that locals were involved in sheltering these Pakistanis, he added.
Imran is being quizzed, which Sohayel hoped, will help uncover more important information regarding the hideout of the other LeT members in Bangladesh.

At about 7.15 pm on Wednesday, when Prime Minister Manmohan Singh's caravan was on its way to 7, RCR, a white Ambassador pierced the security cover at Teen Murti Marg in Chanakyapuri and travelled with the cavalry for a few metres. The joyride came to an end after an escort car spotted the errant vehicle.
Sources in the police, meanwhile, said that an ambassador car with about three men in police uniform sitting inside suddenly entered into the PM's caravan at Teen Murti Marg.
Looks like a mistake or accident from the paramilitary men but shows loopholes in the system. What if it was some one other than cops?"They had probably exited from house number 11 at Teen Murti Marg, which belongs to Congress leader Buta Singh, and entered the convoy. All the policemen, who were reportedly from paramilitary forces, were detained along with the vehicle and interrogated at length at the Chanakyapuri police station on Wednesday night and a Daily Diary (DD) entry was filed about the incident," a senior police officer stated.
Cops, however, remained tight-lipped on what action was taken against the security men.
The Prime Minister was on his way to his residence from the airport after visiting Maharashtra for the launch of the AADHAR project, with the Congress chairperson Sonia Gandhi.
About time.Wasil Khan, who languished behind the bars for eight years after being wrongly branded a Pakistani and convicted in a terror attack case, was released today following a high court order.
43-year-old Khan was received by his family members outside the Amritsar jail.
Khan, a resident of east Champaran district of Bihar found his Indian identity a few days back when his family members met Amritsar deputy commissioner Kahan Singh Pannu and produced the voter list of their area in which his name was present and his school certificates to prove his nationality.
Pannu brought the matter to the notice of Punjab and Haryana high court Justice Mehtab Singh Gill during his visit to the Amritsar jail, who immediately ordered his release.
Khan was detained by the police in 2000 near the India-Pakistan border as he was allegedly unable to explain his visit to the border.
He was declared by local authorities a Pakistani who had illegally crossed over to India.
In March 2002, the Punjab police charged him with being involved in a bomb blast in Sirhind town near Ludhiana. He was convicted and sentenced to eight years in jail.![]()
Khan served the sentence and no other case was pending against him but had to stay in jail as efforts for his repatriation to Pakistan were on.![]()
After being released from the jail, Khan thanked the media which recently highlighted his plight.
Punjab State Human Rights Commission (PSHRC) had last week taken notice of Khan's plight and sought a report in this regard.
Shouldn't they have done that early on when they first arrested him?The human rights commission in Punjab has issued a notice to the state government seeking details about Wasil Khan, 43, who was made to spend eight years in various jails for his alleged involvement in a bomb attack in Ludhiana in 2000.
Khan was also charged with having illegally crossed over to India from Pakistan.
However, the Punjab and Haryana high court ordered Khan’s release after an inquiry found he had been wrongfully confined as he was not only an Indian citizen, but also had no hand in the blast. On Thursday, Khan’s sister Mohazra Khatoon gave Pannu documents supporting Khan’s identity and demanded his immediate release from jail.
Khan, who used to clean trucks, was picked up by Gurdaspur police near the Indo-Pak border under suspicious circumstances. He was declared a Pakistani national.
He was moved to Ludhiana and was accused of involvement in a bomb blast. Khan was tried as a Pakistan national as police did not bother to verify whether he was an Indian. After spending six years in Ludhiana jail, he was moved to Amritsar central jail.
After Pakistani embassy refused to confirm whether Khan was their national, Punjab Police sent a letter to an address in Bihar. After receiving the letter, Khan’s sister came to Amritsar this week and presented Pannu proof of his identity.
THE FIRST clues were picked from an encounter site in Kashmir two years ago. An army unit recovered a cell phone that, it was subsequently discovered, belonged to Umar (9469402337), a Kashmir-based Lashkar-e- Tayyeba (LeT) operative. The call list showed a series of phone calls had been made from this mobile to one in Kannur (9744382047). This gave the investigating agencies a lead into the conspiracy behind the 2008 Bengaluru blasts case, and also to the alarming trend of recruitment of Malayalis living in Gulf countries for terror activities.
The calls were made on 1 and 2 October 2008, a week prior to the killing of four Malayalis in an encounter with the army in Kashmir. The Kerala government formed a Joint Investigation Team to probe the involvement of Malayalis in terror activities. During the probe, the alleged involvement of T Nazir in the conspiracy came to light. Nazir, a historysheeter jailed earlier on murder charges, was a member of Abdul Nasar Madani’s People’s Democratic Party.
Nazir was also charged with conspiring to assassinate former Kerala CM EK Nayanar in 1999. An air-conditioner mechanic by profession, Nazir had, as a 16-year-old, taken part in protest rallies organised by Madani in the wake of the demolition of the Babri Masjid in 1992.
According to the JIT investigators, the Kerala number belonged to 38-year-old Kannur resident Abdul Jaleel. A painter by profession, the Kerala Police alleged that Jaleel acted as a middleman, passing messages between Nazir and the recruits. He was arrested on 18 October 2008. Jaleel spilled the beans that five Malayalis — Abbul Raheem, Mohammad Fayaz, P Fais, Mohammad Yaseen and Abdul Jabbar — were sent to Kashmir by Nazir, an alleged LeT recruit, for training in a LeT-run camp near Lolab valley. The camp was raided by the army in the first week of October 2008.
Only Jabbar managed to flee and made his way back to Kerala. But the police, armed with the information provided by Jaleel, nabbed Jabbar at his second wife’s house in Hyderabad. With Jabbar in their hands, the investigators got their first glimpse into the conspiracy behind the 2008 Bengaluru blasts case and the involvement of a Gulf-based Malayali recruit of LeT in it. Jabbar told police that Raheem, one of the four boys killed in the encounter, was the son-in-law of Zainuddin alias Abdul Sattar who, along with his son Sarfuddin, helped in preparing the bombs used in Bengaluru. Both were arrested.
Jabbar and Zainuddin told the investigators that the Bengaluru conspiracy was hatched by Nazir with the help of a Gulf-based Malayali Sarfaraz Nawaz, who was based in Muscat, Oman. Indian investigators got a shot in the arm with the arrest and extradition of Nawaz.
The interrogation of Nawaz filled in the blanks in the terror nexus involving fundamentalist youth in Kerala. Nawaz, a diploma holder in computer hardware and networking, told his interrogators that he was involved with the activities of the Students Islamic Movement of India (SIMI) in Kerala before it was banned in September 2001. He moved to Muscat in 2003 and moved to Dubai two years later. Soon he joined a fundamentalist discussion group of expatriate Malayalis.
In the meanwhile, he was introduced to Nazir in 2006 when he was on a trip back to Kerala. Nazir and Nawaz hit it off immediately. During one of their later meetings, Nazir expressed his desire to send some boys abroad “for training”. Nawaz assured him that he would find a way to organise the training.
Nawaz has told police that in 2006 he met with an LeT operative, Haroon, through a Pakistani imam, Muslim Bashir, in Muscat, who in turn took him to the regional in-charge of the LeT known by his operational name Wali. In their first meeting, according to an account provided by Nawaz, Wali spoke about the global situation and the problems of Muslims in India, with reference to Kashmir, Gujarat riots and Babri Masjid. When Nawaz sought Wali’s help for the training mission, he suggested he go for training first. Nawaz reluctantly agreed. His entrapment was complete.
“It happens in a very subtle manner,” says Union Home Secretary GK Pillai in an exclusive chat with TEHELKA. “Suppose you have overstayed your visa or done some criminal act and the Dubai or Bahrain police is after you. You are scared that your work permit may get cancelled. There are guys who come and help you. Once they have helped you out they have got you into their clutches. Then you get brainwashed over a period of time. You are given a Nepali or Pakistani visa and sent to Pakistan for training in arms.There you learn how to make a bomb and handle weapons.”
According to Nawaz’s statement to police in January 2008, Nazir told him that he was planning a “big job” and asked him to arrange at least Rs. 2 lakh. Nawaz discussed the matter with Wali and revealed that Nazir was planning simultaneous bombings in Chennai and Bengaluru. Wali immediately agreed to finance the operation but suggested that they should target only Bengaluru because it would attract far more global attention than Chennai. Nawaz sent 2,500 rials (Rs. 2.9 lakh) in two installments to Nazir through a hawala channel.
According to figures available with the Union Home Ministry for Kerala alone, the total annual remittance through hawala is around Rs. 20,000 crore. Pillai explains that the hawala network is the easiest way for genuine Malayalis living in the Gulf to send money home. “Sometimes terrorists are also using the same channel, which is more worrisome,” says Pillai.
Terror finance sent through hawala was used to set off eight bomb blasts in Bengaluru on 25 July 2008. One woman was killed and 20 others were injured. The police managed to defuse one live bomb in the nick of time.
According to the chargesheet filed by Bengaluru police, when Nazir told Nawaz that he had five boys ready for training, Wali was informed of the development. Wali gave Nawaz the phone number of Umar, a Kashmir-based LeT operative. Nazir provided fake identity cards to the boys, who were handed over to Umar in Srinagar in September 2008. After a few days, Wali informed Nawaz that two boys were creating problems.
JABBAR, WHO managed to come alive from Kashmir, told the police they were shocked to learn that their training would be in arms and ammunition. They had been under the impression that they would be taught the Quran. The unhappy boys wanted to go back to Kerala. Nazir called his boys and warned them that the LeT operatives would kill them if they didn’t finish training.
In fact, the calls made to cajole and threaten the unhappy boys were the same 10 calls which eventually put investigating agencies on Nazir’s trail. With the arrest of Jaleel, Nazir came on the radar of the investigators. After the encounter in Kashmir Nazir fled to Bangladesh in November 2008. Nawaz has told police the he had made arrangements for Nazir’s safe passage to Bangladesh, where he was taken to various safe houses of LeT. However, after spending around six months in Bangladesh, his luck finally ran out in the middle of 2009.
He was ensconced in an LeT safe house in Chittagong when the local police raided the hideout and arrested him. He was handed over to India to face trial. The challenge before the police is to prove the charges against Nazir and his terror module in court.
(With inputs from Shahina KK in Thiruvananthapuram)
Three police encounters in less than 10 days. Now, if that sent the chill down the spine of every criminal in the City, would you dub the police trigger-happy?
While human rights activists predictably claim these encounters were ''deliberately staged,'' the police have the usual alibi: We had no choice, we were pushed to the corner!
The slained killers’ relatives obviously cry hoarse, citing human rights violation. But the police reel out a long list of the criminal’s misdeeds. Even the criminal has the right to get the due process of law. But if he turns violent, the police say, they would act. Going one step further, the police would even send a more deadly message. Like they did by honouring a house owner recently for shooting to death a sandalwood thief.
But encounters aren’t anything new to Bangalore. In the first such case, Station Shekhar, an associate of don M P Jairaj, was gunned down in 1989. Over 30 such encounters have been recorded since then. This year alone, the police have killed four persons and injured one in separate encounters.
Involved in the encounters, the anti-rowdy squad is a small team comprising only a few officers. ACP Ashok Kumar and Abdul Azeem, now an MLC, have been involved in five encounters, with the rowdies surviving in two cases. Former ACP G A Bava led the team that killed Eric D'Souza, a Mumbai-based gangster, who was in the City to murder another former gangster.
Mumbai encounter specialist Vijay Salaskar had gunned down three Mumbai gangsters on Cubbon Road. In January and February 2007, the then ACP B K Shivaram and his team killed Shimoga Naga, an associate of Hebbet Manja, on Hebbal flyover.
Only in some of these cases were the police taken to court. But the police had the last laugh.
Police stand
City Police Commissioner Shankar Bidari does not see encounters as a means to enforce justice. “Certain situations force encounters as they are not planned occurances. The police officers on the spot use weapons considering the situation,” he explains.
Pulakeshinagar ACP, B B Ashok Kumar justifies each of the 18 encounters he was
involved in across the State. “Encounters are required if one looks into the background of those killed. They were involved in several heinous crimes, had taken law into their hands frequently, had posed a great threat to society and the police and attacked the police.”
Police are convinced that the crime graph dips after every encounter. Is this a trend that, as some department insiders say, tempts the police top brass to resort to such killings when they fail to control activities of notorious criminals?
But the police are quick to deny it. “The decision to use weapons is not a pre-meditated one. It happens based on a particular situation,” defends an officer.
Death sentence without trial
Human rights votaries say encounter killing is a death sentence without trial. Policemen dubbed as ‘encounter specialists’ ought to be treated for what they are, criminals, instead of being labelled as heroes, they contend.
......
Here’s their critical contention: “How is that policemen rarely die in encounters, when these insurgents are typically shown to be much better armed than our police? The men in khaki should realise they are paid to bring offenders to justice, not to kill them. It is high time the uniformed units are trained to be patient.”
But Bidari cites Section 103, IPC which permits the use of weapons for self defence. “Is it not a human right violation when criminals open fire at the police?” he asks. “And, what about those officers who were injured or killed by criminals? What about those innocent people who were brutally murdered by criminals? Why don’t human rights activists fail to consider this?” Ashok Kumar wonders. The debate goes on.
I fervently hope it is a hoax.17:57 England media reporting that there has been an anonymous bomb threat to the Athletes Village. The Delhi police have said that there is no credible threat at this point in time to the Village. I will bring you more on this story as and when something happens.
New Delhi, Oct 5: Delhi police on Tuesday, Oct 5 afternoon received an anonymous call that a bomb has been placed inside the Commonwealth Games Village prompting an alert and a thorough security check.
The residential complex with 14 blocks, 34 towers and 1,168 air-conditioned apartments, which host around 7,000 athletes and officials, was checked thoroughly by dog squads and bomb disposal teams.
Even though the search was still on, police officials believe that the call could have been a hoax.

As the noose tightens around former Indian Premier League (IPL) commissioner Lalit Modi, it has come to light now that he might seek asylum in European island nation Iceland.
The one-time uncrowned king of cricket is now just one step short of being an international fugitive as Modi might lose his Indian passport after the enforcement directorate (ED) making a request to the Mumbai regional passport office in this regard. Consequently, the passport office has sent a show cause notice to Modi seeking an explanation as to why his passport should not be cancelled.
The ED request to the passport office comes on the basis of accusation of not responding to five summons to appear in a Foreign Exchange Management Act (FEMA) case investigation involving Modi. It had on October 1 issued a blue alert notice to the immigration authorities.
Sources told Headlines Today that if the passport gets cancelled, ED might issue a red corner notice and file a criminal case against Modi under FEMA.
Most recently, the Chennai Police booked Modi along with others for alleged criminal misappropriation of the funds of Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) following a complaint by its secretary N. Srinavasan.
But Modi always seems to be a step ahead of the law. Rumour has it that Modi is all set to get an Icelandic passport using his wife Minal's connections in high places. Minal is a close friend of Dorrit Moussaieff, wife of Iceland President Olafur Ragnar Grimsson.
Lawyer denies ED charges
On the other side, Modi's counsel Mahmood Abidi completely denied the ED's claim of non-cooperation saying he was staying away from India because of a threat to his life. He claimed Modi has been cooperating and replying to all notices.
"ED did not directly contact us. We heard about the notice on Mr Modi's passport in the media. Lalit has valid reason to not return to India because of elevated threat to his life here. Srinivasan has malicious intent that is why he filed the complaint in his hometown Chennai and not Mumbai," Abidi said.
Modi, the globe trotter
Meanwhile, indifferent to whatever has been happening in India, Modi has been busy globe trotting ever since his unceremonious exit from the IPL. Accompanied by burly bodyguards, he shuttles between London, Paris and Milan these days.
After his ouster, his first stop was London where he maintains his base. He has rented a huge apartment in Cadogan Square, one of the fanciest addresses in the city. After London, he left for Monaco. In mid-May 2010, he was holidaying with industrialist Vijay Mallya and his son Siddharth, attending the Formula One Grand Prix.
From Monaco, he returned to London and began his grand tour of Italy. In early June, Modi was accompanied by actress Sushmita Sen to Florence. By mid-June, Modi had dashed off to South Africa for the FIFA World Cup with his kids in the company of Bollywood superstar Shah Rukh Khan.
In August, Modi was off to Bali with wife Minal and brother-in-law Suresh Chellaram, where he rented a house for a month. From Bali, Modi left for Thailand with his family for the extended 70th birthday celebration of his industrialist father K.K. Modi. This Saturday he is expected to be in Milan to attend a bash thrown by Countess Maily Zegna.

Nothing else explains the indifference of Hindus towards their hapless co-religionists in Deganga who, after suffering the “organised fury of the Muslim mob”, led by Trinamool Congress MP Haji Nurul Islam, have been virtually abandoned by both community and state to their fate. Starting September 6, Haji Nurul Islam and his thugs, who met with resistance when they tried to demolish the main Durga Mandap that has existed for long, ran riot in Deganga block of West Bengal’s North 24 Parganas district, a short distance from Calcutta. Hindu homes were ransacked, Hindu shops were set on fire, Hindu temples were desecrated. All this happened while the district administration and the police twiddled their thumbs. In West Bengal, the Marxists are loath to take on the mullahs; for the Trinamool Congress, the mullahs are powerful allies in Ms Mamata Banerjee’s quest for power at any price.
Humiliated and simmering with rage, abandoned and forsaken by their own in West Bengal and elsewhere, the grieving Hindus of Deganga decided not to celebrate Durga Puja, the most important festival in the Bengali Hindu calendar, this year. The Durga Mandaps in Deganga wore a deserted look, the joyous sound of dhaak, the traditional drum, was not heard, and an overwhelming sense of mourning prevailed. Fear played spoil sport, too: If the September riots were any indication, Muslim belligerence was not to be taken lightly. Meanwhile, in a demonstration of crude triumphalism, Haji Nurul Islam and his goons, with the full support and blessings of the Trinamool Congress, have built and inaugurated a new mosque right in the middle of Deganga market. The high-volume and high-pitched azaan is more a taunt to the Hindus than a call to prayers for the faithful.
The ghetto now rules Deganga. The Hindus, reduced to an awful minority by Muslim ‘settlers’ who entered West Bengal illegally and settled in Deganga as ‘citizens’ after being provided with ration cards by the local committee of the CPI(M) that facilitated the inclusion of their names in the voters list, can only grieve over their persecution today. Ironically, the Hindus voted en bloc for the Left, as did the illegal Bangladeshi immigrants-turned-Indian citizens. Then the demography changed radically; the pampered minority became the oppressive majority. That coincided with the waning of the Left Front and the waxing of the Trinamool Congress which, mindful of numbers, chose Muslims over Hindus in Deganga and strengthened its hold by patronising the likes of Haji Nurul Islam. When Ms Mamata Banerjee went around ‘inaugurating’ Durga Puja at various pandals in Hindu majority constituencies of Kolkata this year, she did not spare a thought for the Hindus of Deganga; she need not have because their votes do not matter. That’s the power of demographic change, forced and natural.
Nor does the Left Front, especially the CPI(M), care about the Hindus of Deganga. The Marxists believe survival depends not on alienating the mullahs but pandering to them. Hence the recently announced communal quota; hence, too, the West Bengal Government shamelessly looking the other way as students of a tax-payer funded Islamic ‘university’ — really an over-glorified madarsa — in Kolkata force their women teachers to wear the burqa on campus. Then there is the media which has blacked out the plight of Hindus in Deganga, striking an ideological posture with which we are all too familiar. But it is not Left-liberalism that has kept Deganga out of the columns of newspapers and prime time bulletins of 24x7 news channels: It is the fear of incurring the wrath of both Ms Mamata Banerjee and her Marxist foes. The tragedy that has befallen the Hindus of Deganga is similar to the stuff that once made Ripley’s ‘Believe It or Not’ a popular inclusion in Sunday papers.
Postscript: I have received the following e-mail from Hindu Samhati, the only organisation which has been trying to draw the attention of media and authorities to the fear that reigns in Deganga, admittedly without any success so far:
“Minor Hindu girl abducted by Muslim youth in Deganga in broad daylight on October 1.
Victim — Sangita Mandal; age 17 years, four months. Class 12 student. Daughter of Sukumar Mandal. Address: Village Purba Changdana, PS Deganga.
Kidnapper — Naharul Islam; age 22. Son of Abdul Rahim. Address: Village Doharia.
Sangita was abducted in a Maruti Omni van at Ambika Nagar in front of Polytechnic College.”
In a similar case of abduction and forced nikah when the mother of the minor girl appealed for justice to a division bench of Calcutta High Court earlier this year, the honourable judges of secular India’s secular justice system had cited sharia’h to legitimise the ‘marriage’, insisting that the age of the girl was inconsequential. We live in depressing times.
It's over. Finished. Just waiting for this pattern to repeat all over the eastern region first - Asom is next right after Bengal, and then spread up the ganges and down the corommandel from there. The yindus in Debganga should convert to Islam and spare themselves further such trouble. Ditto the yindooze left in Pakistan. Am actually saying this in all seriousness.Sen_K wrote:Deganga’s Hindus abandoned by own
HS, totally agree with you there, that is the rational thing to do for yindoos in Deganga. When the state, political parties, media and their own community has abandoned them, you are left with only one choice. Actually, democracy game is structured like that. In a sham democracy like ours, which is not driven by policy but by identity, bottom line is democracy=demography. Kashmir is already gone, next in line are parts of Assam and WB and may be of Kerala too. I just don't want to see "Kashmiriyat" in other places of India in my lifetime. A very sorry state of affairs. Unless the structure of game is changed or strong, honest politicians get in power, there is not much hope for some pockets of India.Hari Seldon wrote:It's over.

Calling it their karma is just not right. How can we be so callous? The Hindus in Debganga might not have voted, or might have been coerced into voting for Marxists.darshhan wrote:Hindus of West bengal are paying for the support they extended to marxists for all these years.It is Karma only.
Non islamists in Kerala should take note.There is a high chance that the same scenario would be replicated there as well.The settings are very similar.A Hindu hating Communist govt,Rising Islamic fundamentalism and a general apathy on the behalf of Hindus.
The title is horribly misleading. A handful of Ministers, policemen, IAS, judges have indeed decided to ignore suffering of Hindus in Debanga for Saud money (and no other reason). But the title says that most of the Hindus of almost entire WB or India have chosen to ignore the sufferings. This is a lie. Almost all Hindus I meet, including illiterate auto rickshaw drivers, do want to reduce Islamist violence in India. Pioneer is not a a pioneer in giving misleading titles, but would surely get a Gold Medal.

The Lashkar-e-Toiba (LeT) has a welllinked network in Kerala and a core group of its activists organised by LeT commandant Abdul Aziz and David Coleman Headley has been operating in the state, sources in the National Investigation Agency (NIA) have said.
After the Karnataka police arrested Ibrahim Moulavi and Umar Farooq, the two suspected Malayali LeT activists, the focus of the investigation agency has shifted to unearthing the links the two had with Aziz, Headley and Tahawur Hussain Rana.
A team of Intelligence Bureau (IB) and the NIA will quiz the arrested to delineate the links established by the LeT in Kerala with the active support of suspects Thadiyantavide Nazeer, Umar Farooq and Ibrahim Moulavi.
"The LeT links are emerging well and clear with the Karnataka police keenly pursuing those behind the Bangalore serial blasts. The interrogation of Moulavi and Farooq will provide clear leads to the visit of Rana, the close aide of Headley, to Kochi, IB officials said.
It has been learnt from sources in the NIA that Nazeer and Farooq had coordinated with LeT leader Illyas Kashmiri, {Ilyas Kashmiri is *not* an LeT leader. I hope it was just a reporter's error} who in turn had worked in tandem with Headley and Rana.
Sources said the interrogation of Mohammed Zia ul Haq, who is said to be an important link in the global terror operating in the country, had ascertained the terrorist network in the country.
"Zia has links with Abdul Rahman Makki, who is said to be a deputy to LeT chief Hafiz Sayeed. Makki is coordinating the activities with Abdul Aziz, who is controlling terror operations in South India either from Bangladesh or Saudi Arabia," the sources said.
IB sources said Moulavi is suspected to be coordinating activities in Kerala as he had been camping in the state even after LeT's key operative Thadiyantavide Nazeer was nabbed by the police.
Kasargod, Oct 19: The intelligence department has gathered information that Ibrahim Moulvi, arrested by the anti-terrorist cell of Karnataka in connection with Bangalore serial blasts, used to brainwash the youngsters into indulging in terrorist activities. Moulvi was taken into custody from Gunaje mosque in Munditadka within the limits of Badiyadka police station here, recently.
The investigation team is confident that it would be able to put together important information on various subversive activities that had occurred in south India during the last some years, from Moulvi (48), who hails from Orambattu in Vellimukh Padinharattara in Vyanad district, Kerala. There is information that the Karnataka police may bring him back to Badiyadka in connection with investigations, to pool more information about his activities.
Ibrahim, who was attracted towards religious scriptures since a young age, has a wife and children at his native place. He was introduced to the world of terrorism, after coming into contact with Tadiyandavita Nasser from Kannur, was arrested in the past in connection with Bangalore blasts. Ibrahim, who accepted a poor girl residing at Kapad in Kannur-Chakkarakkal Road as second wife, started to run religious classes in a rented building in Kannur, it is learnt. The classes, for which entry was given only after detailed verification, were run during nights. Even though about 200 youngsters joined his classes initially, a few reportedly dropped out, after the preaching turned towards terrorism.
Out of the five youths, who were selected for being trained in Pakistan, four died during firing by Indian army in Kashmir. Before their deaths, these four youths called Abdul Jaleel, against whom cases were registered relating to Bangalore blasts, asking him to convey to Moulvi that they are in danger of being nabbed. The intelligence wing got wind of Moulvi’s activities because of this call. Ibrahim later hid himself, and got a new name, Muhammed Moulvi, and joined Gunaje as Mukri, feeling that this would be the right place to stay away from police dragnet.
It is said that Ibrahim, who was trained in Pakistan, worked as recruitment agent for Pakistani agencies. Although around 180 youth reportedly were made members of Lashkar-e-Toiba by Ibrahim Moulvi and Ummer Farooq, the policemen have information only about 50 among them. The policemen hope that they will be able to cull more information about the other members of the said organization from Moulvi.
