Government on June 1 extended the ban on Liberation Tigers of Tamil Eelam (LTTE) by two more years, reports News.lk. A statement issued by the Indian Home Ministry on May 14, stated that even though LTTE was defeated in Sri Lanka, "Recent reports reveal that remnant LTTE cadres and leaders are regrouping in Tamil Nadu." The possibility of LTTE's remnant cadres using India and especially Tamil Nadu as a rear base for their regrouping activities and the possibility of them entering in the guise of Tamil refugees cannot be ruled out, reported the Indian media quoting the Home Ministry statement. Quoting sources, media reports said that LTTE sympathisers were posing a threat to India as they continue to spread anti-India sentiments through the medium of Internet. Certain remnant cadres have been noticed in Tamil Nadu and an extension of ban on LTTE was required, sources added.

Several police agencies had earlier said that IM was a splinter faction of the Students' Islamic Movement of India (SIMI), which was banned in 2001. The IM was banned on June 2, 2010. In its 4,478-page charge sheet against the four arrested accused filed before a special Maharashtra Control of Organised Crimes Act (MCOCA) court on May 25, the ATS said, "The IM has been expressly created by (the) ISI of Pakistan ostensibly to spread terror in this country through Indian front outfits."

The Shillong Times reports that the Union Home Secretary R.K. Singh on June 1 preferred to downplay the emergence of the breakaway group of the ANVC (ANVC-B). “A small fraction of a breakaway militant group does not worry the Union Government much,” Singh said on the sidelines of his visit to the North Eastern Police Academy (NEPA) at Umsaw in Ri-Bhoi District. Singh, however, stayed away from commenting on the claim of the Meghalaya Government that the ANVC-B was a result of error in the tripartite ceasefire agreement signed between the Union Government, Meghalaya Government and the ANVC on July 23, 2004. Commenting about the Garo National Liberation Army (GNLA), the Union Home Secretary said that the GNLA has suffered a lot of reverses in the past few months. He also commended the efforts taken by the State Police to control the activities of the outfit. “We are confident that we would very soon catch all their cadres,” Singh stated.

Indian security agencies are not hopeful of Myanmar immediately launching a Bhutan-type operation to flush out northeastern militants from the country, reports Times of India on June 2. The news report quotes a security source saying, "It's NSCN (Khaplang) chief SS Khaplang who calls the shots there. Ulfa and the NDFB have smaller contingents. Ulfa has about 200 Ulfa fighters while the strength of the NDFB is just about 100. Manipuri outfits have about 3,000 militants. The size of the NSCN (Khaplang) [Nationalist Socialist Council of Nagaland-Khaplang] is also quite big", he added. "Let's see how Myanmar deals with the militants this time. Earlier, it used force against them only to extort money. We have marked the rebel hideouts. We think the militants can be driven out easily if Myanmar acts like Bhutan." The sources said.

DNA reports that the Karnataka Government is set to roll out welfare initiatives to bring people in Communist Party of India-Maoist (CPI-Maoist)-affected areas to the mainstream, according to State Home Ministry sources. “Around 12 villages have been affected by Naxal activities and the people living in those villages need to be offered facilities—including connectivity, employment and security—that will help them relate to the mainstream. All government departments should earmark 10% of their budgets to the development of villages marked as Naxal-affected areas,” Western range Inspector General of Police Pratap Reddy said. State Home Ministry sources said that it was not possible to tackle a sensitive issue like Naxal influence on youth with law and order machinery and coercive methods. Instead, all Government departments, including sports and youth affairs, must reach out to the people in those areas and launch public contact programmes. Deputy commissioners of Mangalore, Udupi and Chikmagalur districts will be given directions to not wait for the government packages but to use the available funding and manpower to take up welfare initiatives in Naxal-affected villages. Villages like Menasinahadya, Eedu, Navuru, Kuthluru and Naravi are likely to get immediate attention, the sources said.

Forensic investigations into the 13/7 Mumbai blast cases revealed that the accused relied on the internet to find out developments in the case, reports The Times of India. The Police found several computer files which show that the accused were keeping daily tabs on the investigations. Pictures of the nine accused in the 2006 Malegaon serial blast cases were also found in their computer. Investigations show that the Opera House bomb was planted at 1.30pm while the Zaveri Bazar bomb was planted at 6pm. The anti-terrorism squad (ATS), probing the triple blasts, had seized a computer and several DVDs from Habib Mansion in Byculla (East). The room was taken on rent by arrested accused, Naqi Ahmed and Nadeem Akhtar, and was reportedly used by Indian Mujahideen (IM) leader Yasin Bhatkal alias Imran and two suspected Pakistani bombers. The Police also found a Tata Photon, a USB connection to use internet, attached with the seized computer. The forensic analyzer, in the report, stated that they also found contents in Muslim language. But observers say there is no specific language in India which could be called a Muslim language. The hard disc analysis showed that the suspected accused had been surfing net to read stories about bombs blasts across the country. Moreover, pictures related to blasts in Mumbai and Pune's German Bakery was found in the hard disc.

in view of increased air traffic and threat perception, the security grid at both the strategically important airports of the State is being expanded and State Cabinet will clear the proposal of Home Department for creation of additional 347 posts of different ranks of Police personnel. Sources said that though the work load at Jammu and Srinagar airports has increased considerably during the past some years due to operation of multiple flights yet there was no change in the composition of security at these airports. "As the present scale and composition of security at strategically important Jammu and Srinagar airports is not commensurate with the present air traffic, it is necessary to augment the deployment of security cover", they said. "Out of the requirement of 380 posts worked out for Jammu airport, 196 posts have already been created and 184 posts are yet to be created. Similarly, as against requirement of 347 posts for Srinagar airport, only 146 posts are in place and additional 201 posts are required to be created", sources said.

Kanglaonline reports that Union Home Minister (UHM) P. Chidambaram, on June 5, said the problem of left-wing extremism was affecting some eastern states in the country but most of the insurgent groups in northeast were now holding talks with the Centre. “The States which are affected by this left-wing extremism are Chhattisgarh, Jharkhand, Bihar and West Bengal to some extent,” the Minister told media persons in Bhopal. Stating that northeast has a very special place in the country, he said most of the insurgent groups there had entered into a dialogue with the Government. Terror incidents in northeast and in Jammu and Kashmir last year (2011) were the lowest in two decades, he said. Right now, Madhya Pradesh is among the states which are not affected by Naxalism. However, he raised the Naxal issue with Madhya Pradesh Chief Minister Shivraj Singh Chouhan when they met earlier in the day. “I have asked him to come to New Delhi to make a presentation on the State on the issue,” Chidambaram said.

Madhya Pradesh Government plans to make a presentation to Union Home Minister P Chidambaram on the emerging situation of Left-Wing Extremism (LWE) to back its demand to declare nine more Districts as Naxal (LWE) affected, reports The Times of India. The State makes the demand arguing that it wants to take preventive steps to check spread of Naxalism by taking up development initiatives well in advance in the backward regions. So far only Balaghat District has been declared as LWE-affected. "We don't consider Madhya Pradesh as a state badly affected by Naxalism unlike the states of Chhattisgarh, Jharkhand, Orissa, Bihar and one district of Maharashtra and three districts of Orissa", Union Home minister P Chidambaram told newsmen during his visit on May 5. "Chief Minister Shivraj Singh wants to give a presentation on the emerging situation of Naxalism. I have invited him to Delhi and promised to work out some arrangement," he said. Referring to Naxalism, the home minister said Naxal casualty figures were low this year but the situation is really "worrisome" as many States were facing grave challenges. He said the Centre was providing all possible assistance to States to fight Naxalism through multi-pronged strategies, including for development of respective regions.

Nagaland Chief Minister Neiphiu Rio, in an interview on the peace process between New Delhi and the NSCN-Isak-Muivah (NSCN-IM) says that elections are fought on party lines and this divides the Nagas. This is the time when Naga undergrounds (rebels) have come closest to the Government. If we lose this opportunity, we will have to start from zero, he said. The undergrounds were fighting for sovereignty but they have realised, reconciled that the situation is such that now we have to live in the Indian Union. That is why this is the closest moment for the Nagas and the Indian government …this is the time for a solution, he said. He however further said that a piecemeal settlement for the Nagas may not be good. Whether we are integrated or not integrated, Naga interests should be protected wherever they are.

Sahar Samay reported on June 5, 2012 that according to US Congressional Research Service (CRS) report, "There is ongoing conviction among US officials that sanctuaries in Pakistan have allowed Afghan militants to sustain their insurgency and that elements of the ISI continue to support them”. The CRS said ISI is also regularly linked to anti-India terrorist groups, including the Lashkar-e-Toiba (LeT), responsible for the November 26, 2008 (26/11) attack on Mumbai. "Some reporting has cited Afghan insurgent commanders claiming that in the latter months of 2011 the ISI increased its direct contacts with the Taliban, vigorously encouraging more violence, and even supplying them with new high powered explosives manufactured in Pakistan," said the CRS, which as the name suggests, is the independent research wing of the US Congress. CRS said that the classified NATO report, detailing information gathered through thousands of interrogations of captured Taliban and Al-Qaeda militants, was leaked in January 2012 and reportedly indicates that Afghan insurgents continue to receive direct support from the ISI. The report further offers that, "Pakistan's manipulation of the Taliban senior leadership continues unabatedly," and "Senior Taliban leaders meet regularly with ISI personnel, who advise on strategy and relay any pertinent concerns of the government of Pakistan."

The Maharashtra Anti-Terrorism Squad (ATS) has claimed that the funds received by Indian Mujahideen (IM) operative Yasin Bhatkal from Dubai through the hawala (illegal money transfer) channel were used to send recruits to Pakistan to receive terror training, as reported on June 5, 2012 by dnaindia.com. Apart from being used in the July 13, 2011 (13/7) blasts, the funds were also used to pay the deposit for the Habib Mansion flat in Mumbai. The ATS, in its chargesheet, said, “During the course of investigation it has transpired that Yasin Bhatkal has utilised the money received by him through hawala for paying the deposit of the rental room in Mumbai and other places. The funds were also distributed to other members for the purpose of causing terrorist acts and sending Muslim youths to Pakistan for terror training”. Until now, the investigators had claimed that only Bhatkal, alias Shivanand, was in touch with arrested Delhi-based hawala operator Kawalnayan Pathreja. However, investigations have now revealed that Wakas Shaikh, one of the planters in the case, was also in touch with Pathreja. “We had seized two broken mobile phones and two pocket diaries from Pathreja’s residence, but one of the diaries contained a page of the month of July wherein the name of Wakas Shaikh was written by Pathreja. This means Wakas was in touch with him and some dealing had taken place in the month of July between them,” said the officer. Further, Investigations revealed that suspected Pakistani bomber Waqqas (Wakas Shaikh) had helped his co-accused steal two Activa scooters from Grant Road and V P Road areas a day before the explosions, as reported by The Times of India. Last week, the ATS arrested Naqi Ahmed and Nadeem Akhtar for stealing two bikes and two Activa scooters. In its chargesheet, the ATS said that Waqqas had accompanied Ahmed and Akhtar when they went to steal the vehicles. According to sources, Waqqas had joined a gym in Byculla and went there regularly to work out. "He stayed in a rented room in Habib Mansion in Byculla for almost nine months with the other suspected Pakistani bomber, Tabrez. Waqqas also participated in assembling of the bomb in the rented room. On the day of the blasts, Waqqas and Tabrez went to Opera House on one of the stolen scooters around 1.30pm and the former planted the bomb there near a hawker. The bomb was not fitted into this scooter," said a source

Investigations revealed that the Indian Mujahideen (IM) operatives had used social networking websites, and that's how they managed to stay under the investigators' radar, as reported on June 6, 2012 by rediff.com. The investigators also found that some IM operatives were trying to conduct recruitments through their Facebook accounts. The IM has been quick in the use of technology when it came to planning and executing their operations. They started out with the use of email, then moved on to chats and later Skype, a video conferencing application. However, when the Police finally realised, the cadres improvised by using the 'save draft' option and the cache to store their messages in accounts which were accessed through a common username and password. The police say that the cadres had started using social networking websites as far back as 2008, but it was only used as backup. However, post 2008, because of strict monitoring by investigators; the cadres started using social networking websites extensively

Investigators probing the July 13, 2011 (13/7) triple blasts have learnt that Delhi-based hawala (illegal money transfer) operator Kanwalnayan Pathrija not only transferred funds for the bombings, but also used three SIM cards obtained on fake documents as reported by The Times of India on June 6, 2012. The SIM cards were from a set of cards provided to operatives of Indian Mujahideen (IM). According to the chargesheet filed by the anti-terrorism squad (ATS), suspected Pakistani bombers Waqqas Shaikh and Tabrez alias Danish, arrested accused Naquee Ahmed and Nadeem Akhtar and wanted accused Tehseen Shaikh and Muzaffar Kola had used SIM cards which were obtained using forged documents. "Pathrija (42) used three such SIM cards," said an ATS officer. "We have obtained the call detail records of these SIMs." The ATS chargesheet in the 13/7 case also mentions that the DNA of a woman was found in Byculla's Habib Mansion, the building where the suspected bombers stayed. "We had sent several seized items to the state forensic science laboratory for analysis. The forensic reports state that one of the three toothbrushes seized by the police from the room contains a woman's DNA," said an ATS officer. "It is likely that a family stayed in the room before the bombers rented it. Our probe has not reaveled the involvement of a woman, but we are probing all angles," the officer added.

The centre on June 6, 2012 told the Supreme Court that a red corner notice has been issued against Indian Mujahideen (IM) operative Fasih Mehmood for his alleged role in various terrorist activities, but refuted his wife's claim that he was abducted in a joint operation by Indian and Saudi Police in Dubai, according to Hindustan Times. Additional Solicitor General Gaurab Banerjee also submitted to the bench of justices K.S. Radhakrishnan and J.S. Khehar, a copy of the "red corner notice (RCN)" which was issued through Interpol and carried a warning, that Fasih "may be armed, dangerous and violent." The notice stated that 30-year old Fasih, a resident of Bihar's Darbhanga district, was a member of the IM and responsible for the Pune German Bakery blast on February 13, 2010; Bangalore Chinnaswami Stadium blasts on April 17, 2010 and Delhi's Jama Masjid shootout and blast on September 19, 2010. During the course of investigation, 7 persons were arrested and interrogated. They voluntarily confessed that they along with Fasih Mehmood and other absconders belong to the banned outfit called IM. The absconding accused Fasih Mehmood is an active member of IM since 2003. At present the absconding accused is hiding himself in Kingdom of Saudi Arabia. It was submitted that several cases under various Indian Penal Code (IPC) sections like 120B (criminal conspiracy), 121 (waging or attempting to wage war against India), besides various provisions of the Explosives Substances Act and Prevention of Damage to Public Property Act have been lodged against Fasih. Further, the centre told the Supreme Court that its agencies had no role in alleged arrest of Fasih Mehmood on May 13, 2012, according to The Times of India. Responding to the court's notice, Gaurab Banerjee told a bench of Justices K S Radhakrishnan and J S Khehar that its investigating agencies neither accompanied Saudi Arabian Police in effecting the alleged arrest nor had he been brought to India. Banerjee said "The external affairs secretary and the home secretary have conveyed that neither Indian agencies nor its officials were part of any alleged action to arrest Fasih in Saudi Arabia. It is not correct to say that Indian police arrested him. He is not in India”.

United Liberation Front of Asom (ULFA) and Communist Party of India–Maoist (CPI-Maoist) have links, Assam chief minister Tarun Gogoi on June 6 said, reports The Telegraph. When asked about Union Home Minister P. Chidambaram statement at a media conference recently that there was nothing to suggest that ULFA had links with Maoists, Gogoi said, “Let him say that. He has got his own sources; I have my own (sources)”. Gogoi said he was aware about Maoist infiltration into Assam and their links with ULFA for a long time. Gogoi also said the Maoists had links with many insurgent groups in the Northeast and Ulfa was just one of them. Gogoi stressed on improving connectivity in the remote areas, especially along the border to counter insurgency. CPI-Maoist has expanded their bases in Assam by forming a Lower Assam Leading Committee, reports Times of India. "The Lower Assam Leading Committee in central lower Assam area is at the initial stage now with a handful of cadres. They are yet to find a leader for this area," a senior police officer said. "The CPI (Maoists) picks up groups in society, which have been agitating against the government for autonomy to protect their unique identities. They have managed to recruit a few youths from these communities and the motivation is on," the officer added.

Indian Mujahideen (IM) operative Mohammad Qateel Siddiqui, accused of executing terror attacks in Bangalore and Delhi and involved in the attempt to blow up Pune's Dagadusheth Ganapati temple, was strangled to death by two other prisoners in a high-security cell of Pune's Yerawada central jail on June 8, 2012, reports The Times of India. Siddiqui was in custody of the Maharashtra Anti-Terrorism Squad (ATS) since May 3, 2012. He was handed over by Delhi Police, who arrested him on November 22, 2011. The terrorist was believed to be a close associate of Yasin Bhatkal, the main suspect in a string of terror attacks. Prison Superintendent S.V. Khatavkar, who was later suspended by the Maharashtra government for the security lapse, said that Siddiqui was found dead in his 10 ftx10 ft cubicle in the 'anda' cell of Yerawada. "We later learned that gangster Sharad Mohol and his aide Alok Bhalerao, who were also lodged in the anda cell, had strangled Siddiqui to death with a drawstring from a pair of shorts around 9.45am," he said. Further, the Maharashtra government has now asked prison authorities to separate terror accused from other high-profile criminals, according to Hindustan Times. The directive was issued soon after Siddiqui’s murder came to light, said Police sources. The directive is significant considering Arthur Road, Yerawada and Nagpur central jails hold high value criminals including Ajmal Kasab, the Pakistani national convicted for his role in the 26/11 terrorist attacks. Apart from him, the state is particularly concerned about the key IM operatives arrested in the 13/7 Mumbai serial blasts which includes Haroon Rashid Abdul Hamid Naik, Naquee Ahmed, Nadeem Sheikh and Kanwar Nain Wazirchand Pathrija. All the four accused are currently in Arthur Road jail in Mumbai which also houses key Chhota Rajan henchmen facing trial in various cases.

Jammu Police stepped up searches for Parvez Ahmed Tak, a resident of Kishtwar town and a major missing link in the missing mystery of actor Laila Khan and her four other family members. "An all out hunt has been launched for Tak, who had driven Laila Khan and her four other family members to Jammu. His name in the missing case of Laila Khan had surfaced after the recovery of a Mitsubishi Outlander car, parked in a shop for past several months, in the heart of Kishtwar town’’, Deputy Inspector General of Police (DIG, Doda-Ramban range) Gareeb Dass said. The DIG said it has now become almost certain that Laila Khan along with her four other family members had been driven to Jammu by Tak from Nasik (Maharashtra) in February 2011. Since then there had been no trace of either Laila Khan or any of her four other family members. As reported earlier, the recovery of a Mitsubishi Outlander car belonging to Laila Khan’s family has raised doubt about their involvement in Delhi High court blasts.

local newspapers carried notices of at least seven panchayat members, including women, from Rajpora in Pulwama District announcing their resignations on June 8. "We inform everybody that we have nothing to do with panchayats and are not affiliated with any political party," one of the notices said. Earlier, on June 5, Jaish-e-Muhammed (JeM) had asked panchayat members in the area to resign triggering mass resignations of panchs (member of panchayats) and sarpanchs (head of panchayats) in south Kashmir, where Kulgam is located. Reports said the JeM’s purported threat along with a similar warning from the Lashkar-e-Taiba (LeT) earlier is the reason why around 20 panchs and sarpanchs have quit. A number have been shot at, mostly in their legs. Meanwhile, officials have denied such resignations. "None of the panchayat members have submitted their resignations officially," an unnamed official said. Another unnamed Police officer said, “(We are verifying) whether the posters were actually issued by militant organisations or someone else to keep them away from day-to-day work." India Today adds that locals say that posters of JeM were seen in villages of Pulwama and Shopian Districts this week, warning elected rural body members to resign within a week's time or face consequences. The posters were reportedly pasted on electricity poles, walls of mosques and shops in public places. Pulwama Superintendent of Police, Amit Kumar, admitted that three to four posters were seen in a few areas. "At some places posters were of LeT, at others they were of Hizb-ul-Mujahideen [HM] and Jaish. We are investigating the case. They might be posters of militants and there is possibility it could be foul play as well," the officer said. On June 8, more than a dozen such resignations and non-affiliations of rural body members, including women members, appeared in the local newspapers in the shape of advertisements, the report further added. "I am resigning from the post of elected rural body membership. Now onwards I have nothing to do with this post and am not affiliated with any political party. The information is for general public," reads one such resignation from Abdul Rashid Dobi, panch of ward number 6 from Darbgoom in Pulwama. It was published as paid advertisement in a Srinagar based Urdu daily. A woman panch, Ameena Bano from ward number 8 of Village Sahpora in Pulwama, also resigned from the post. She also announced her resignation in the form of paid advertisement in a newspaper. Her resignation advertisement read, "Without coming under any influence from any political or apolitical body, I am resigning from the post of panch. In future, I have nothing to do with this post and I will have no connection with any political or apolitical body."

"There is no force in the world that can bring the infiltration to zero level… it is never possible for us to bring the graph of infiltration level to zero level. Like the previous years, some incidents of infiltration have taken place but the number of attempts has definitely come down," said General Hasnain. He said that some incidents of infiltration have remained un-reported adding that the infiltration attempts made in strategically important areas get coverage in the media. "Usually the infiltration that takes place in the Uri sector gets media coverage while as occurrence of such incidents at other places do not find a place in media. We established contact with militants at some other places and even yesterday an infiltration attempt was foiled." He said that infiltration usually takes place in April and May adding that this year [2012] as the winter has been prolonged the attempts of infiltration may take place in June as well. He said Sopore, Baramulla, Kupwara and other areas of North Kashmir have direct impact of the infiltration attempts since they fall in vicinity of the Line of Control (LoC). Hasnain said that 300 militants are operating in the Kashmir Valley and that most of them are operating in North Kashmir. He also said that militants are trying to regroup in South Kashmir especially in Pulwama District. "We have reduced the night patrolling in the areas of South Kashmir and this may be the reason that militancy has been revived to some extent in South Kashmir especially in the Pulwama district. We are working in collaboration with Jammu and Kashmir Police and over the next two weeks we would be able to wipe militants who have come up yet again," said Hasnain. He further said that militants have changed their strategy and they are using cars for planting bombs. He said the car bomb blast at Bijbehara along with the recovery of explosives laden car from Chanapora area in Srinagar are significant reminders about this development on the militant front. "There are enough explosives with the militants operating in the Kashmir valley although the weaponry is less. It is quite possible that the militants may strengthen their ranks in Kashmir in the months to come. As such it is important to notice their movements and take steps that would defeat their designs," said Hasnain.

The Jammu and Kashmir Government on June 9 claimed that no panchayat (village level local self government institution) member has resigned, reports Deccan Herald. “Such reports are baseless and mischievous. Chief Minister (Omar Abdullah) has taken up the issue of threats issued by unknown elements against panchayat members with the security agencies,” said Ali Mohammad Sagar, Minister for Rural Development and Panchayati Raj. “I am the concerned minister and I can tell you we have not received any resignations from any panchayat member whatsoever,” he added. Sagar also said the government has asked Police to take necessary measures to find out the truth behind the threats and ensure safety and security of panchayat members. As reported earlier, media reports had indicated that at least half a dozen panchayat members had resigned from their posts announcing it through paid advertisements in vernacular dailies after militant threats. Meanwhile, the Government has reportedly put a very strong mechanism in place to check the activities of mischievous elements who were responsible for resignations (though not official) of about half a dozen Panchayat members in the Kashmir valley and ensure that the trend was completely curbed. "There was no specific reason and common reason behind half a dozen Panches issuing resignation letters in the newspapers instead of giving them to the concerned authorities", official sources said. Director General of Police (DGP) K Rajendra confirmed that a security mechanism has been put in place all across the State, not confining it to the Kashmir Valley where some resignations have been reported, to ensure that not only the Sarpanches and Panches have a free, safe and secure environment but the common man also. "We will get to bottom of the conspiracy. Who are the people behind it (the resignations)? Who have sponsored the conspirators? At who behest the posters or threatening letters to the Panchayat members have been issued? We will go into the roots and come up with a detailed report very soon’’, Rajendra said. The DGP admitted that night police patrolling was being revived in some sensitive areas, where it had been stopped earlier due to peaceful environment. "The patrolling has proved quite successful. The trend of any fresh resignation has stopped. Still, we have to go into roots of the problem and find out reasons for the resignations, though they were very small in numbers’’, Rajendra added.

The production units working under the CTC were named in code words like S1 for Andhra Pradesh State Committee, S2 for North Telangana Special Zonal Committee, S3 for Dandkaranya Special Zonal Committee, S4 Bihar, S5 for Karnataka, S6 for West Bengal and S7 for Maharashtra. The CTC used to meet every three months and representatives of the CMC attended such meetings once in a year to chalk out plan of action. Most such meetings were held in Latehar District of Jharkhand, except once in Dandkaranya forest of Chhattisgarh.

The Communist Party of India-Maoist (CPI-Maoist) has claimed that hi-tech preparations were being made by the Governments and the Army in tribal Bastar region in Chhattisgarh to supress the revolutionary movement, reports The Times of India. In a 17-page detailed paper, highlighting various issues pertaining to the "Peoples' movement" in Dandakaranya region in general and tribal Bastar region in particular, the Maoists said unmanned aerial vehicles (UAV) or drones manufactured in US and Israel are also being used on a vast scale in the region. Alleging that the UAVs were being used for suppression of the peoples' movement, the CPI-Maoist has condemned its usage continuing its tirade against presence of Army in tribal Bastar region in Chhattisgarh. It also accused the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) for extending its support to the UPA government at the centre and favouring deployment of Army. "The UAVs take real time images, find out about the guerrillas' movements and their camps on the ground and send the data to the control room and in turn they are sent immediately to the forces participating in operations through modern devices", the paper said adding that small UAVs named 'Netra' that run on rechargeable batteries are carried and used by the forces during the operations. It claimed that 1800 new mobile towers were being built in the Maoist movement areas. A Regional Navigation Satellite System is being established under the direction of Indian Space Research Organization (ISRO). Claiming that all these resemble war preparations, the Maoists' paper explained in detail their point of view regarding the presence of Army in tribal Bastar region. The rebels described the government claims a facade. The paper further pointed out that the troops' presence in Bastar was not just for training, alleging that it was an excuse to cover up preparations for war against revolutionaries.

The National Investigation Agency (NIA) estimates that the face value of Fake Indian Currency Notes (FICNs) in circulation is over INR 160 billion, Indian Express reported on June 11. “The quantum of fake currency floating around in the country is enough to keep the terrorist machinery well-oiled and running. The closest that one possibly gets to a figure is the one calculated by a government committee in 2011 — over Rs 16,000 crore,” says the NIA report. Such notes, believed to have been routed from Pakistan, have been seized not only from India but also from Nepal, Bangladesh, Afghanistan and Holland, says an NIA report, which also names Denmark, Singapore, Sri Lanka, Malaysia, Thailand and the UAE among the countries from where FICN is being sent. “The FICN is being pumped either with the help of active terrorists infiltrating through our borders or with the help of couriers who travel to Dubai, Bangladesh, Nepal and other countries and then supply the FICN to border smugglers in exchange for a proportionate amount of genuine Indian currency,” the NIA report further said.

the National Socialist Council of Nagaland NSCN-Isak-Muivah (NSCN-IM), on June 11, alleged that the Assam Rifles was creating conflict among the Nagas in Tamenglong District, reports The Telegraph. In a statement, the outfit alleged that the birth of Zelianglong United Front (ZUF) was a direct manipulation by Government agencies, including Tamenglong-based politicians, and the Assam Rifles was using it as a counter-force against the NSCN-IM, as it found it difficult to handle the outfit. The NSCN-IM alleged that all the arms and ammunition used by the ZUF were being supplied by the army on the condition that the NSCN-IM should be targeted.

The Special Maharashtra Control of Organised Crime Act (MCOCA) court, on June 11, postponed the recording of the statements of the accused in the July 11, 2006 Mumbai serial train blasts after the defence moved an application seeking to record the testimonies of two witnesses, according to Indian Express. One of the defence lawyers, Advocate Abdul Vahab Khan, moved an application seeking permission to examine a metropolitan magistrate, who had recorded statements of arrested accused under the Code of Criminal Procedure (CrPC). Special judge Yatin D. Shinde will decide on the application on Tuesday (today). The court, meanwhile, allowed another application seeking permission to recall a witness, who had already deposed before the court as a prosecution witness. “This witness is a sanctioning authority and sanctioned most cases between 2005-08 and has claimed that the banned organisation Indian Mujahideen (IM) was responsible for all the blasts between this period. We need to examine him on certain aspects, which he has earlier told the court,” said Advocate Khan. The Maharashtra Anti-Terrorism Squad (ATS) probing the case had arrested 13 accused claiming they were members of the banned organisation Student’s Islamic Movement of India (SIMI) and Lashkar-e-Toiba (LeT). The agency in its chargesheet had charged them under various sections of Indian Penal Code, MCOCA and Unlawful Activities (Prevention) Act.

UN Secretary General's annual report (2011) released on June 11 on children and armed conflict said the Communist Party of India-Maoist (CPI-Maoist) recruit and indoctrinate children for children's squads and associations, particularly in Chhattisgarh and some Districts in adjoining States, reports The Times of India. This is part of the Maoist strategy for mass mobilization, the report said. It also pointed to recruitment of children by vigilante groups like the Salwa Judum (an anti-Maoist vigilante group). The report said, "In 2011, incidents of attacks on schools by Maoist armed groups continued to be reported." It quoted the Union home ministry statistics which showed that Maoists destroyed 258 school buildings, mostly in Chhattisgarh, Jharkhand and Bihar, between 2006 and November, 2011. "Government statistics indicate that the number of attacks on school buildings has declined progressively since 2009," the report said. Also, use of schools by security forces continued in 2011, it said. The Supreme Court, at least twice, ordered security forces to vacate schools in Chhattisgarh, most recently in November 18, 2011. "In January 2011, the Government of Chhattisgarh conceded that security forces were using 31 schools," it added. UN secretary general Ban Ki-moon recently sent the annual report to the Security Council.

With a view to check circulation of Fake Indian Currency Notes (FICNs), the Uttar Pradesh (UP) government on June 11, directed banks to be especially alert in order to check the menace and ensure security of automatic teller machines (ATMs) installed on the Indo-Nepal border, reports moneylife.in. Parliamentary Affairs Minister Mohammad Azam Khan said, "We have directed banks to ensure special alertness to check circulation of fake currency (FICN) and emphasise on security of ATMs installed on the Indo-Nepal border". The minister said that the state government was also going to direct the Police to not only arrest those caught with FICN but also arrest the sources from where they got it. The Times of India adds that admitting the menace of FICN, the minister said that there is nothing to hide about the fact that the number of fake currency cases are on the rise in the state. At times, incidents of fake notes from bank ATMs had also come to light, the minister said, adding that in view of this Reserve Bank of India (RBI) had been requested not to allow money into ATMs manually and deploy guards there after their character verification. The Pioneer further reports that the Akhilesh Yadav Government is considering proposing an amendment to the Indian Penal Code (IPC), making banks or ATMs equally responsible if they issue counterfeit currency to any customer. Khan added, “We will amend the IPC and send the amendment to the Central Government for approval”. Khan revealed that 18 cases had been registered so far in connection with counterfeit currency notes in the State.

With the pressure of the Security Forces (SFs) building up on militants they are desperate to aim at soft targets across Kashmir Valley to make their presence felt, Director General of Police (DGP) K Rajendra said on June 11, Daily Excelsior reported. He said that there is lot of pressure on the militants operating in the State from their handlers across to act, adding, "And there are large numbers of soft targets available which militants aim at to show their presence." The DGP also said that all those strikes that were carried out in Srinagar in recent months have been carried out by militants who came from outside Srinagar for the purpose and fled soon after. He said that there are no known sleeper cells of the militants in Srinagar but didn't rule it out also. He said that militants target Srinagar and other towns for their high news value. The DGP said that there are no fresh recruitments of militants taking place in the State. He, however, didn't rule out few odd cases in parts of Kashmir Valley. He said that Lashkar-e-Toiba (LeT) is making desperate attempts to recruit youth in Sopore but they are finding it very difficult. "There is hardly any recruitment as there is no support for it. One odd child they may recruit," he said. The Police Chief said that despite the elimination of top ‘commanders’ and coming down of the infiltration, the militancy is not over yet. He said that there are still around 200-250 armed militants in the State. "They are mostly in South and North Kashmir with Central Kashmir being least affected", he added. The DGP said that Tral, Shopian, Sopore and Kulgam are affected by the militancy and any one can sneak in other areas of Kashmir Valley to carry out the strike due to easy connectivity. He said that location of Sopore and its background is the cause behind survival of militants in the area. He said proximity of Sopore to the Line of Control (LoC) through Bandipora, Kupwara and Baramulla, easy to operate and easy escape routes in the area are behind the growth of the militancy in the area. On the recent threat to Panchs (member of Panchayat, village level local self Government institution) and Sarpanchs (the head of Panchayats), the DGP said that some elements are spreading rumours and causing panic to subvert the elected system in the State. He said that there have been some incidents and some of the Panchs and Sarpanchs have been targeted for various reasons other than militancy. "It is not something alarming", he added. Rajendra, however, said that Police is investigating these cases where the Panchs and Sarpachs have been targeted and have been threatened through posters. "We have mapped these areas, mostly in South Kashmir, where these incidents have taken place and joint patrolling is being done by the security forces in these areas", he added. On financing of militancy, he said that SFs have managed to block various channels of funding militancy in the State. But, he said, they are using multiple channels. He said that Police have identified the people who are channeling hawala money and have managed to choke the funding to a great level. Rajendra said that there are various channels like money transfer and depositing of money into the accounts of Over Ground Workers (OGWs) from third country. "Other banking channels of funding militancy are also being used", he added. The Police Chief said that LoC trade is also being used to fund militancy in the State. He said that modus operandi is under invoicing of the goods. He said that six cases have been registered in funding of militancy through LoC trade routes of Uri and Poonch.

Terror group Lashkar-e-Toiba (LeT) has built their own Voice Over Internet Protocol (VOIP) network that allows secure communication over the Internet, free of monitoring from authorities, as reported by therightperespective.org on June 12. The private system, known as Ibotel, is similar to other VOIP networks like Skype that encrypt audio signals into binary data. But because Ibotel was created privately by tech exports recruited by the terror network, it has so far been impenetrable by Indian authorities. According to a senior government official, “And even if we know their IP addresses and the time and date of their audio or video calls, we remain technologically handicapped because we can’t intercept what transpired between them”.

The Communist Party of India-Maoist (CPI-Maoist) has lost 150 members including senior leaders, cadres and guerrilla fighters, admitted the outfit on June 12, reports The Times of India. In a press statement issued by Gudsa Usendi, the spokesperson of the Maoists in Dandakaranya — the headquarters of the Maoist outfit, announced that in Dandakaranya alone, the group had lost 40 of its men in past one year. 110 Maoists died in the rest of the country where the outfit is active. Like previous years the outfit has announced to observe martyr's week from July 28 across the country. The Maoist spokesperson said that some of the deceased party members died of illness and some in encounters with the security forces. The statement emphasised on the death of Maoist politburo member Koteswara Rao's encounter death at Burishole in Bengal on November 24 last year. Apart from Kishanji, the Maoists declared that Srikant, one of the senior leaders of Dandakaranya Special Zonal Committee died on February this year. Srikant, a member of the outfit since 1993, was suffering from a heart ailment. He played crucial role in the outfit's organisation in Gadchiroli district of Maharashtra and last year during an ambush he sustained injuries. Sunita who was with the outfit for past 30 years also died due to illness. She was suffering from breast cancer. The red brigade lost their Telangana based leader Gundeti Shankar who died of snake bite in the deep forests of Telangana. Security agencies suggested that the Maoists were now facing a leadership crisis as a good number of their senior leaders were either in jail or were killed in encounters. They are now trying to build up the next line of leadership through their party congress. But due to regular operations, they have deferred their scheduled congress.

Times of India reports that two days after the lapse of the deadline (June 10) given to Indian insurgent groups (IIGs) by the Myanmar Government to leave the neighbouring country, army personnel have been positioned in close proximity of the rebels' camps, but there is no report of any militants fleeing across the border to India. "The Myanmarese army has positioned itself close to the camps of IIGs at Taga and other places but everything is as usual. There are more than 3,000 cadres of IIGs in Myanmar and there have been no reports of any of these groups moving to India, though there is pressure on the Meitei outfits," a top security source said. "There is certain pressure on the outfits of Manipur. Even Khaplang is under pressure from the Centre to withdraw his support from all the other IIGs, particularly the Meitei outfits," the source said. "For all these years, the IIGs having been staying in Myanmar and it could not have been possible without some kind of understanding with the Myanmarese army and its intelligence. We know for sure that the Meitei groups and other IIGs have been paying money to the Myanmarese army and intelligence through the NSCN (K). So, whatever is happening now is feared to be just a cosmetic venture. Six months ago, the Myanmarese army had closed in on camps of IIGs, but without firing a single shot, the army withdrew from its position. The same thing is happening now," the source said.

On June 13, India raised the issue with the US when External Affairs Minister S.M. Krishna met US Secretary of State Hillary Clinton in Washington for the third round of strategic India-US dialogue. Both Headley and Rana are currently in the custody of US authorities. Headley is accused of conducting recce of 26/11 targets for the LeT, which carried out the attacks. However, Rana was acquitted of federal charges that he aided the terrorists who carried out the attacks. At a joint press conference with Clinton, Krishna told reporters, "India's interest in further access to Headley and Rana, in accordance with our legal procedures, for the investigations into the Mumbai terror attack of November 2008, was raised." In response, Mrs Clinton said the two countries are sharing information related to terrorism and other related issues. "With respect to information-sharing it is our policy and practice to share information, and we do that. I'm not going to go into details because we think our cooperation on intelligence-sharing, on homeland security issues, on counter-terrorism has gotten to a new level," she said. However, The Hindu added that Krishna noted that the U.S. had not briefed India on any progress in the case of Hafiz Saeed, the alleged mastermind of 26/11, on whose head the Obama administration recently placed a USD 10 million bounty. Krishna also implied that no further promises had been made by the US regarding India’s years-old plea for further direct access to Headley. While the U.S. defused growing anger and suspicion in the Indian corner by granting India’s National Investigation Agency (NIA) access to Headley for ten days in June 2010, additional opportunities to question him have not materialised.

The Jama'at-ud-Dawa (JuD) has resumed online jihad, The Hindu reported. In a video address posted on its website, the website went online on June 13, JuD ‘chief’ Hafiz Muhammad Saeed explained the decision. “The media is a two-edged sword,” said Saeed, adding, “Rather than being overwhelmed by the media, we wish to use it in a positive way and, god willing, use it to spread our message of proselytisation and jihad.” Saeed's message is studied in its moderation. The website says the JuD “nullifies [sic., throughout] all kinds of violent ideologies that resort to use of force against innocents souls anywhere in the world.” Instead, it says, the organisation “struggles for the restoration of Pakistan's true Ideology of Islam that should stand as an example for Muslim world.” The website makes no mention of terrorism-related charges that recently led the US to announce a USD 1 million reward for information leading to Saeed's arrest. Instead, it notes that Saeed toured the US in 1994, lecturing on “Islamic Perspectives of Raising Children.” The internet registry service www.who.is does not hold ownership details for the Jama'at website, but records it is hosted by the Karachi-based internet service Magsnet. Magsnet's website says it is a marketing and web development firm whose clients include Nokia, Telenor, Standard Chartered and Barclays.

Bangladesh envoy to India Tariq Ahmad Karim on June 14 asked India to have patience with Dhaka over the issue of handing over of United Liberation Front of Asom (ULFA) ‘General Secretary’ Anup Chetia, who is presently in a Bangladeshi jail, reports Nagaland Post. “India and Bangladesh are friendly neighbours and India has been requesting Bangladesh to extradite Anup Chetia like other Indian terrorist, but he (Chetia) has applied for political asylum and that takes legal course of action,” Karim said. “India must have patience and definitely our government will act on this issue according to the law of our land,” Karim said. However, Karim also said that if Chetia had not applied for political asylum like some of the ULFA leaders, he would have been pushed back to India long before. Karim said, “Bangladesh too is fighting against terrorists. We don’t provide shelter knowingly to any terrorists on our soil so we are also acting on the issue.”

Srinagar Police on June 14 neutralized a Lashkar-e-Toiba (LeT) module that was operating in Srinagar and arrested its five cadres, reports Daily Excelsior. However, the brain behind the module is still absconding. Deputy Inspector General (DIG, Central Kashmir range) Syed Afhad-ul-Mujtaba said that four of the arrested militants belonged to Pulwama District while the fifth one is a resident of Zewan-Srinagar. "We have been able to crack the conspiracy that was hatched to plant IED [improvised explosive device] in a car at Chanapora Bridge on May 17 and so far five arrests have been made. We are on lookout for the others and hopefully they too would be tracked down soon," said Mujtaba. "In order to disturb prevalent peace and public order a criminal conspiracy was hatched by the active militants of LeT outfit operating in the Tral and adjacent villages of the South Kashmir. Bilal Ahmad Bhat alias Bilal Lalihari resident of Lelhar-Pulwama, Sajad Ahmad Bhat alias Shadak resident of Zewan-Pantha Chowk and a Pakistani militant Qasim alias Qasim Bhai along with their other associates were entrusted with the responsibility to carry out IED explosion in the Srinagar city," said Mujtaba. He said Qasim Bhai was instrumental in supplying the ignition gadgets besides imparting training to other members of the module to trigger the IED. "Qasim Bhai coordinated the whole operation by providing money and arranged other logistics through a well knit over ground worker module. Mohammad Yusuf Lone coordinated with other members of the module to carry out the task. Yusuf used to work as source for the law enforcement agencies but later on switched over his loyalty to LeT," he said. "The explosive material was provided by Muzaffar brother of Sajad, who is an active militant of LeT. The explosive material was procured clandestinely from some of the magazines, which provide blasting material to the quarries operating in the Zewan and Khonmoh areas," he said. He added that on May 16 the explosive laden vehicle was brought by Sajad, Qasim, Bilal and other associates to the assigned place. The DIG further said, "An LeT explosive expert who is a foreigner had devised the car bomb which was detected in time and defused through a controlled explosion in Nowgam area of the city on May 17 by us. The explosive material used to prepare the bomb was locally procured by the militants. It comprised of gelatin sticks used locally for rock blasting," adds IANS. As reported earlier, on May 17, a car heavily laden with explosives was seized and the explosives defused on the city's outskirts

Generally we kill such people as they are responsible for the death of several Maoist leaders, but this is for the first time that we are forgiving such mistake. We are also a part of the locals and we have decided to forgive him, but if he repeats his mistake, we will not forgive him,” an unidentified Maoist said.

Marak said in a statement. “If they still show no response in the coming week, then a total non-cooperation movement will be launched against the 24 legislators,” he said. Marak said the third phase of agitation, which will start from June 25, will be nothing less than a total boycott of all the 24 legislators.

The Telegraph reports that the Khaplang faction of the National Socialist Council of Nagaland (NSCN-Khaplang) on June 15 listed reasons for split. Wangtin Naga, minister for information and publicity of the NSCN-K, said the split in the outfit on June 7, 2011, was because of differences in political ideologies regarding talks with the Centre among the top brass. He said Kitovi Zhimomi, ‘general secretary’ of NSCN-Khole-Kitovi, wanted to enter into dialogue with the Government of India without ‘chairman’ S.S. Khaplang as New Delhi did not want to talk to the latter, who is from Myanmar. He said Kitovi also wanted to settle the issue of Nagas in Nagaland only, which was opposed by some leaders of the outfit. The NSCN-K had claimed that the Khole-Kitovi faction wanted to settle for an economic package, compromising the sovereignty of Nagaland, which has been pending for over 60 years. The rival faction also reportedly wanted the Centre to increase the number of Assembly and parliamentary seats in Nagaland. The outfit (NSCN-K) would not compromise on the sovereignty of Nagaland though Khaplang was not against any group or faction who wants to settle for financial or economic packages or an autonomous council, Wangtin said, while cautioning Indian Government that talk with one or two groups would not permanently solve the Naga problem.

The officers of the Maharashtra anti-terrorism squad (ATS) interrogating Indian Mujahideen (IM) operative Mohammed Kafeel Ahmed, in connection with July 13, 2011 (13/7) triple blasts in the city, have said that he is the key conduit in what is believed to be a well-spread out hawala (illegal money transfer) network that channels underworld money to the terror group. Kafeel, the caretaker of a local mosque and well-versed with scriptures, travelled across the country to spot and train fresh recruits into the IM cadre, ATS officials said. The interrogation has also revealed that Kafeel knows how the INR 3.75 crore ransom collected in the 2001 kidnapping of shoe baron Partho Roy Burman in West Bengal was routed through hawala channels. The Intelligence Bureau (IB) and Research and Analysis Wing (RAW) believe that the money was used to fund the 9 /11 World Trade Centre attack in US, as well as the attack on the American Center at Kolkata in 2002, and that the kidnapping was carried out by persons who went on to form the home-grown IM. His interrogation has revealed over a dozen names that play a crucial role in the IM set up. Kafeel, along with Muzaffar Kola could throw light on terror financing through hawala networks, said police sources. Kola, whom the ATS alleges to be the key person who channelled INR 10 lakh to 13/7 mastermind Yasin Bhatkal through his hawala network, was also involved in the transfer of ransom money in the Burman case.

another Police constable, identified as Mukhtiar Sheikh was arrested on the basis of disclosure made by the previous three arrested constables, as reported on June 17. Sources said earlier Mukhtiar Sheikh was detained in the aftermath of November 26, 2008 (26/11) attacks in Mumbai for supplying SIM cards to LeT militants. But the case was dropped against him later on the ground that he was trying to infiltrate into the terror group. As Police continued interrogation of four arrested Police personnel amidst preliminary investigations that nearly a dozen constables could be directly involved in the militancy in Srinagar, the arrests had also caused concern to Central security agencies, which suspected that the constables might have been involved in gun-running and extortion. In view of their concern, Police officers have provided access of all four constables to Central security and Intelligence agencies. "We have provided access to all Central security and Intelligence agencies of four arrested constables though it was the Jammu and Kashmir police which blew the cover over this," Police spokesman said. Official sources further confirmed that the Police personnel had provided SIM cards to the militants. Constables had also been frequently changing their mobile phone numbers while passing on the information to HM militants

Central security agencies have asked Jammu and Kashmir Police to tighten security around All Party Hurriyat Conference (APHC) leaders especially its former chairman Abdul Gani Bhat amid reports that terrorists may carry out assassination attempts to vitiate the atmosphere, as reported on June 17, by Daily Excelsior. A threat assessment was recently carried out for the separatist leaders in the Kashmir valley following intercepts that banned Hizb-ul-Mujahideen (HM) and Jaish-e-Mohammed (JeM) were planning to carry out the killing so that the peaceful atmosphere is vitiated in the region, official sources said. According to the sources, Bhat, who has blamed HM militant outfit for the killing of his brother Mohammed Sultan Bhat in 1995, was the prime target of terror groups. Despite the Hurriyat leader having given in writing turning down the security of the Jammu and Kashmir Government, officials from State and the Centre favoured increasing of "shadow" security cover to him.

The Assam Tribune reports on June 17 that that Mizoram Government is firm on the arrest of top leaders of the Hmar People’s Convention-Democracy (HPC-D) even as United People’s Front (UPF) of Manipur urged both the Centre and the Mizoram Government to release them. State Home Minister R. Lalzirliana said that the HPC-D’s ‘army chief’ Lalropuia and ‘deputy army chief’ Biaknunga were arrested as the outfit has been indulging in illegal activities inside Mizoram including murder, intimidation and extortion. Chief Minister Lal Thanhawla also accused the HPC-D of violating the terms and conditions of the Suspension of Operation (SoO) signed with the security forces under the supervision of the Union Home Ministry. Lalropuia and Biaknunga were arrested on June 10 from Silchar (Assam) airport by the Mizoram Police and were brought to Aizawl the same day and were charged with murder, criminal intimidation and extortion. The UPF condemned the arrest, saying “the HPC-D is one of the constituents of the UPF in signing the SoO and that the Mizoram Government should make approach for peace rather than arresting leaders of the militants who wanted that their demands be met without resorting to violence”.

The Sitamarhi District administration on June 17 prevailed upon Union Rural Development minister Jairam Ramesh and persuaded him not to venture into Naxal-dominated areas, reports The Times of India. The minister wanted to visit a village for verification of rural development work there. Led by the Superintendent of Police (SP), the District administration asked the minister not to go to Giddha gram panchayat (village level local self-government institution) under Runnisaidpur block, 35km from the District headquarters. "We have received reports that landmines have been laid by Maoists on a 3-km stretch of kutcha road leading to the panchayat," the SP told Ramesh as the minister was about to get into his car around 10am. Jairam told The Times of India, "This is my first experience when administration has refused to permit me to visit such an area. Once in Malkangiri, my chopper could not land due to lack of arrangement for refuelling there while in Saranda, landmines had exploded barely two km away from a place I had visited." He said following the repeated pleas of the SP, he had to cancel his programme. Ramesh expressed concern over the shortage of Police force and the low number of Police Stations in Bihar. In Sitamarhi, he said, for the 3.5 million people across 17 blocks, there are only 18 Police Stations, which are also ill-equipped. "This number should be doubled," he said, adding that "whether it is terrorism or Naxalism, the police have to fight the menace just as it was achieved by Punjab Police". Jairam also met chief minister Nitish Kumar in Patna before leaving for New Delhi.

Two troopers were injured on June 17 as Pakistan continued to violate ceasefire along the Line of Control (LoC), according to Daily Excelsior. Colonel R.K. Palta said, “Pakistan resorted to unprovoked firing, using heavy automatic and small arms fire, from 12 different posts at 10.pm Saturday (June 16). Later at 11.15 pm, Pakistan fired mortars and a large number of high explosive rounds on Indian posts in the same area. The firing continued till 12.30 am on Sunday (June 17),” as reported on June 18, by dnaindia.com. The Indian Army also retaliated by controlled effective firing to the Pakistani provocation. “Troops exercised utmost restraint. The response to Pakistani firing, though controlled, was effective fire. The Indian Army continues to maintain a high level of alert all along the LoC (Line of Control),” he added. The tension started on June 11, when Pakistani forces violated the ceasefire at Krishna Ghati sub-sector of Poonch sector in which a Border Security Force (BSF) trooper was injured. He succumbed to wounds in the night of June 13. Efforts to de-escalate the situation received a jolt when Pakistan postponed the flag meeting scheduled to be held at Chakan-Da-Bagh on June 16, without giving any reasons. The Cross-LoC trade via the Chakan-Da-Bagh crossing also remained suspended, awaiting de-escalation of the situation in the Krishna Ghati Sector. The crisis further deepened on June 16 night when Pakistan Army once again fired on Indian posts in the Krishna Ghati sector without any provocation.

India has for the first time lodged a strong protest with Pakistan and given concrete evidence proving that Indian Mujahideen (IM), which has been responsible for a series of bomb blasts across the country, is a front of terror outfit Lashkar-e-Toiba (LeT), as reported on June 18, by Deccan Herald. New Delhi has also categorically told Islamabad that LeT was using the Pakistani soil to give training and other logistical support to the IM. The issue was discussed at length during the recently concluded home secretary-level talk in Islamabad. Pakistan’s intelligence agency, Inter-Services Intelligence (ISI), has for long been trying to project that IM was India’s internal problem of 'home grown terror' as most of its members were Indians. The basic idea of ISI, intelligence sources said, behind floating IM was to show that terrorism was India’s own domestic issue and that Pakistan has nothing to do with it. But Indian intelligence and security agencies have now busted that myth giving a complete list during the secretary-level talks to Pakistan of LeT’s terror camps in Pakistan where IM cadre, comprising mostly Indian recruits, were being trained. The details of this elaborate dossier reveals that LeT was using at least five camps in Pakistan-occupied-Kashmir (PoK) to train IM terrorists in use of making Improvised Explosive Devices (IEDs) and training of arms and ammunitions. These important camps, which have been on the radar of Indian agencies, are: Bait-ul- Mujahideen at Shawai Nalla; Al Massada, Ibn Taymiyya, Abdullah Bin Masood, Masker Al Aqsa. All these training camps are in Muzaffarabad in PoK. The dossier also states that most of these men are 'launched across the border' mostly through the Maskai-e-Ummalkura which is basically a tent camp used for transit close to the Indian border. The details provided by the Indian side go on to reveal that the top LeT commanders like Abu Muzammil and Abu Sama, are actively involved in training the IM terrorist. These two LeT operatives often cross over into India also to supervise Lashkar operations in the Kashmir Valley, particularly in North Kashmir. In addition, India also reiterated that the two founders of IM, Riaz and Iqbal Bhatkal, continue to live in Karachi under the ISI’s protection. “Information was also provided to Pakistan as to how Indian youth from various parts of the country are taken to Pakistan through Nepal and Bangladesh for training. This is the first time that India has taken up the IM issue with Pakistan so strongly,” a senior home ministry official said. The current chief of IM in India, Yasin Bhatkal, who is still on the run, is also suspected to have been trained by the LeT at these training centres in Muzaffarabad.

Following inputs from the three arrested National Liberation Front of Tripura-Biswamohan faction (NLFT-BM) militants, Tripura Police conducted searches in 10 locations across the State in the past 24 hours, reports Times of India. Sources said during a search in the houses of arrested militants, who have been provided Government accommodation under rehabilitation package following their surrender in 2004, Police in Agartala had seized some incriminating documents belonging to the outfit. The seizure also included a letter addressed to NLFT-BM ‘Chairman’ Biswamohan Debbarma in Kokborok dialect. The news report states that NLFT-BM has recently recruited some 70 freshers in the outfit, who are now undergoing arms training in Myanmar and Bangladesh. In addition, Biswamohan keeps shifting his base between Bangladesh and sometimes in Aizwal (Mizoram) and the surrendered people were actively associated with NLFT-BM network, taking advantage of the rehabilitation package. According to the report, NLFT-BM has been suffering from shortage of funds for the past one year and they could not even pay arms rent to Nationalist Socialist Council of Nagaland-Khaplang (NSCN-K). As a result, the NLFT-BM wanted some money to procure arms and repay the rent.

Hizb-ul-Mujahideen (HM) militant Shakeer Ahmad alias Chhota Hafiz, who was carrying a reward of INR two million on his head and was wanted to the National Investigating Agency (NIA) in connection with September 7, 2011, blast outside Delhi High Court, has sent feelers to the security agencies that he was ready for surrender along with some other militants on some conditions, according to Daily Excelsior.

"Though we would like Chhota Hafiz and other militants to surrender and face trial in Delhi High Court blast and other cases, we continued our efforts to nab them simultaneously anticipating that offer of surrender by the militants could be a ploy to delay police operations’’, they asserted. Chhota Hafiz along with Aamir Kamal alias Kamran and Junaid Akram Malik were wanted to NIA in the Delhi High Court blast. All three carried a reward of INR two milion each on their head — INR 1 million announced by the NIA and an equal amount by the State Government.

Deccan Herald reports that Intelligence agencies have warned Karnataka that the Communist Party of India-Maoist (CPI-Maoist) cadres are attempting to regroup in Malnad area benefiting from Police's reluctance to initiate action against them and growing discontent among the villagers living close to the thick jungles of the Western Ghat over their land ownership. The Maoists are giving high priority to increasing their footfalls in the about 100-kilometre stretch of Malnad area - comprising seven Districts of Chikmagalur, Shimoga, parts of Udupi, Dakshina Kannada, Hassan and Kodagu – and have deputed central committee member Kuppu Swami to establish a base and recruit cadres. Swami, who hails from Bangalore, has been tasked with supervising the expansion plan as he is familiar with the territory and knows the local dialect. Masquerading under assumed identities such as Kuppu Devaraj, Ramesh, Rayanna, Balaji, Jogesh and Yogesh, Kuppu Swami carries a reward of INR 700,000 and INR 1 million announced by Jharkhand and Chhattisgarh Governments respectively. Intelligence inputs with the Security Forces (SF’s) suggest that the cadres from neighbouring Tamil Nadu and Kerala are camping in the Western Ghats along with local Maoists belonging to groups led by Vikram Gowda, Latha, Mahesh and Sundari.

The protest movement in Jammu and Kashmir was never 'indigenous' in nature and was financially and logistically supported by Inter Service Intelligence (ISI) from the very outset, US attorney Neil MacBride has said, India Today on June 20 reported. The attorney made this claim in his explanation of reasoning for the sentencing of Syed Ghulam Nabi Fai, executive director of US based Kashmiri American Council (KAC). He said the KAC was run by the ISI. "The KAC was incorporated on April 4, 1990. Fai admitted in a letter to the ISI in 1995 that he had already by that time been working with the ISI for more than a decade," MacBride said. Fai, however, had claimed the ISI-KAC link was only limited to receipt of funds from the spy agency. Fai had said he was approached by an ISI official with an offer to provide funding to KAC. Fai claimed he concealed his connections to the ISI because revealing them would have undermined "his credibility with his constituents and particularly with the government of India and the indigenous Kashmiri resistance." Fai was arrested in July 2011 and charged with being part of a long-term conspiracy with associate Zaheer to act as agents of the Pakistani government in the US without disclosing their affiliation. Fai was sentenced to two years in prison followed by three years of supervised release for conspiracy and tax violations last [2011] March. The sentencing was made in connection with a decades-long scheme to conceal transfer of at least USD 3.5 million from the Pakistani government to fund his lobbying efforts in the US. The sentencing was announced among others by MacBride, US attorney for the Eastern District of Virginia.

Home Ministry issued an alert on the possibility of a terror strike by Lashkar-e-Toiba (LeT) modules in the coming weeks, reports Oneindia.in. The alert was issued to both the Mumbai Police and the Odisha Government. There were reports on June 21, which mentioned the possibility of terror strikes by terrorist groups, but the Home Ministry on June 22, stated that their alert was based on inputs received from Assam Police with chances of LeT targeting the Puri Rath Yatra in Odisha. The fact that the LeT has been recruiting Assamese youth for terrorist activities since 2001 unravelled the gravity of the situation. Security agencies are taking into consideration this fact and heightened alert. The LeT is understood to be remarkably expanding their base in the North East, especially the Bangladesh border areas that have seen many insurgent activities. The terror alert has been communicated to all State Police officials and has also warned of a possible strike by the LeT in Mumbai (Maharashtra) as well. With the real plan for the strike yet to be known, the security officials are on an overdrive to find out the possible target of the group.

It indicated that the person was in league with militants and was planning to explode IEDs to terrorise people. Even though the person was with department of police and was an employee of the CID wing, he was in league with anti-national people and involved in terrorist activities," a remand application of Police reads. The accused, the application said, met Hizb-ul-Mujahideen (HM) militant Shabir Ahmad alias Adil in Tral area of Pulwama District. During the meeting, he demanded lakhs of rupees from the militant in lieu sharing information, it added. "Then he met Muhammad Ilyas, Riyaz Ahmad and Mukhtar Ahmad Sheikh. It was decided that militants would be provided pictures of police officials and their residential houses. They also decided to provide information regarding movement of police officials in lieu of huge money," the application reveals. Moreover, the remand application said that during investigation it was found that Rather was involved in ferrying weapons from one place to another. The Police hinted that more arrests are expected. The court remanded the four accused cops till June 30. On June 16, four intelligence sleuths - Muhammad Abas Rather, Riaz Ahmed, Mohammad Ilyas and Mukhtar Ahmad Sheikh - were arrested for their alleged links with militants.

The Shillong Times reports that Director General (DG) of Border Security Force (BSF), U.K. Bansal, on June 22 asserted that Garo National Liberation Army (GNLA) ‘chairman’ Champion Sangma has been arrested and is currently jailed in Bangladesh. Bansal’s statement has confirmed reports appeared earlier that the militant chief is finally in the custody of the authorities. When asked for details about the arrest, the BSF official refused to comment further even though he said: “I am saying he is in jail from a long time now.” He said that the GNLA chief has to complete his sentence in Bangladesh before his extradition to India. Since his reported arrest in Bangladesh on November 2011, the GNLA ‘chairman’ is said to have been out of touch with the ‘commander-in-chief’ of the outfit, Sohan D Shira. However, the Meghalaya Police have so far maintained a stoic silence on the GNLA chairman’s arrest in Bangladesh. According to Bansal, both the BSF and Border Guard Bangladesh (BGB) are working closely to ensure that there is no cross-border movement along the Indo-Bangladesh border. The BSF official also made it clear that militant activities in the State are under control since the State is going to elections next year (2013). When asked about the anti-India insurgency camps that are operating on Bangladeshi soil, Bansal stated that these are intelligent reports which are sometimes reliable but are not verified reports.

Marak, the ‘chairman’ of the outfit, said in a statement. “However, if nothing happens in these two weeks, then the third phase of agitation will start, where every legislator who fails to take up his responsibility as an elected representative will be boycotted,” Marak said.

The Telegraph reports that suspected Garo National Liberation Army (GNLA) militants abducted a State Bank of India (SBI) cashier from East Garo Hills District on June 23. The armed militants abducted Abdul Halim Ali who works in the SBI’s Songsak branch around 2 pm from Rongri market while he was on his way from Songsak to Rongjeng in a car with his branch manager. Sources said the outfit has asked for INR 5 million for his release. Sources said the abductors had actually wanted to abduct the branch manager, but since Ali did not know how to drive, they took him away instead. “The militants had wanted Ali to take back the vehicle as they did not want him to be left stranded on the road. But since he did not know how to drive, they instead took him (Ali) away. The branch manager was told not to inform anyone within 24 hours else Ali would be killed,” an official said.

concerned over mass resignations of panchayat (village level local self-Government institution) members in Gadchiroli District, the Centre has asked the Maharashtra Government to ensure safety and security of elected representatives from CPI-Maoist threats in the Naxal [Left Wing Extremism (LWE)] hotbed, reports Business Standard on June 24. Union Home Minister P. Chidambaram spoke to Chief Minister Prithviraj Chavan recently and asked him to do the needful to protect the elected civic body members in Gadchiroli, many of who have put in papers after the Maoist intimidation. Official sources said during last one month, two Gadchiroli zilla parishad (district level local self-Government institution) members from Etapalli tehsil (revenue unit) quit their posts following Naxal ultimatum. Four panchayat and one zilla parishad member in Bhamragarh in the District had also resigned from their respective posts. The sources said of late Maoists have abducted many panchayat or zilla parishad members in Gadchiroli and released them only after they agreed to abide by the Naxal diktats. The Maoists, they said, do not want any development in rural areas of Gadchiroli as under-development and lack of connectivity give them free run in these remote areas.

in a change of strategy, the CPI-Maoist has decided to call off violence against armed outfits, including their splinter groups, for three months, reports The Times of India. The Maoists have invited leaders of other groups to come together on one platform and fight against the unified command of the Centre and the State Governments carrying out Operation Green Hunt. Bihar Jharkhand North Chhattisgarh Special Area Committee (BJNCSAC) spokesman Gopal in a statement issued on June 24 said the decision of unilateral ceasefire was taken to invite the other armed groups working in individual capacity for the common people to work from a unified and stronger front. "We can set aside our personal differences in ideology for the betterment of common people and when the government is harassing villagers and trying to suppress their movement for neo-democracy, all the groups must understand the need of the hour and join hands," the release reads. The appeal has been issued in the name of the People Liberation Front of India (PLFI), Jharkhand Liberation Tigers (JLT), Jharkhand Janmukti Parishad (JJMP), Tritiya Prastuti Committee (TPC), Shashtra People's Morcha (SPM) and any other such armed group working for people's cause. The release says, "If these groups are working for the common people, they must come on one platform and accept the offer for ceasefire because the government has intensified the imperialist attack to gain control over jungles, villages and natural resources to hand it over to the corporate houses. If these groups do not understand the urgency of unifying our resources to fight the common enemy, their stance would be exposed," the release reads. Appealing to their own ranks and files to observe restrain, Gopal has asked the Peoples’ Liberation Guerrilla Army (PLGA) cadres to abide by the diktat and refrain from attacking any member of the armed groups. "Our PLGA members must be vigilant and retaliate in case there is an attack but they have to avoid confrontation with the other groups during the period of cease fire," the release reads.

Lashkar-e-Toiba (LeT) terrorist Abu Jindal (Jundal), who is in Delhi Police's custody, has confessed his active role in the November 26, 2008 (26/11) Mumbai attacks, saying that Jamaat-ud-Dawa (JuD) ‘chief’ Hafiz Saeed was present in the Karachi (Pakistan) control room when the 26/11 masterminds were controlling the events, as reported on June 26, by IBNLive. According to officials, Jindal was one of the five handlers present in the control room in Karachi. He was directing terrorists carrying out 26/11 attacks at every step. He also coached the 26/11 terrorists to pose as members of fictitious terrorist organistaion- Deccan Mujahideen to misguide the investigation, according to The Times of India. According to IB sources, during the interrogation, Abu Jindal has admitted to handling the attack on Nariman House during 26/11, reports IBNLive. Jindal reportedly told the Police that he was the one who trained the 10 terrorists. As per the details, he was actually involved in guiding and directing the terrorists at every step during 26/11 attack. Jindal has also admitted of travelling along with Ajmal Kasab (the lone terrorist arrested) and other terrorists on the same boat to the Indian border. Kasab's testimony, earlier to Mumbai Police, names Jindal for seeing off the 10 attackers at Pakistan shore. Abu Hamza, Abu Qaafa and Lakhvi were the others. According to NDTV, Jindal has 10 aliases and was sent to Saudi Arabia by LeT to gather funds for another major operation after 26/11. The Times of India quoting sources said, "Abu Jundal knows the Bhatkal brothers - Riyaz and Iqbal, bosses of Indian Mujahideen based in Karachi -- very well. He claims that the Bhatkal brothers used to come to joint meetings of Lashkar and IM. For the Jama Masjid attack, the Bhatkal brothers asked Jundal to provide a man, an expert in firing”. Further confirming the arrest, Union Home Minister P. Chidambaram said on June 25, “The person who goes by the pseudonym of Abu Jundal has been apprehended and has been remanded to the custody of law enforcement agencies”, reports Telegraphindia.com.

the Centre is taking the frequent desertion by Police personnel to join Naga rebel outfits seriously, reports The Telegraph on June 25. This was stated by inspector-general of police (intelligence) C. Sangtam while commenting on the recent desertion by two Nagaland Armed Police (India Reserve) personnel with arms to join a rebel outfit. Sangtam confirmed that the two deserters had joined a Naga outfit but did not disclose the identity of the outfit. But sources said on June 6, havildar Hotrong Chang deserted with one 9mm pistol, 10 live rounds and one radio set and on June 18, havildar Neiphukhrie deserted with one AK rifle, 47 rounds of live AK ammunition and some rounds of 9mm ammunition and a radio set. The sources said the duo had joined a certain outfit based near Dimapur. In the past, several Naga police personnel had deserted with arms and ammunition to join militant outfits. In April, Assam Rifles arrested police constable Enyimi Chakhesang for allegedly supplying ammunition from the police central store, Chumukedima, to members of the NSCN-Isak-Muivah (NSCN-IM). The subsequent special investigation team probe led to implication of six Police personnel, including a superintendent of Police.

According to Deccan Herald, the Communist Party of India-Maoist (CPI-Maoist) is said to be spreading its influence across the industrial zone, specifically collieries, where they are wooing young workers and sending them for arms training, Police said. “We have got some reports, which tell us that Maoists are trying to spread their wings in this area through some frontal organisations. Sometimes, the area is also used as a transit point. However, we are keeping a close eye on the situation,” Commissioner of the newly formed Asansol-Durgapur police Commissionerate Ajay Nanda. Top officers say Maoists look for diversification of their activities in newer areas where they could intrude by acting as sympathisers of people’s grievances, since their movements are restricted in the Jungle Mahal area (Bankura, Purulia and West Midnapore Districts). The heavy presence of joint forces in Jungle Mahal has severely crippled Maoists activities there. In a meeting, Maoists observed their inability to make inroads into industrialised areas, despite their success with the agricultural areas. They vowed to give special attention to the industrialized areas by trying to address the problems of the labour force there. Given the proximity to Jharkhand, the Maoists have even set up a special area committee in 2009 in Durgapur, Asansol and Dhanbad enabling leaders in Jharkhand to visit these places. “If someone receives any injury during encounter with the police he is brought to the area for treatment. Their main target is to get through to the colliery workers,” a Special Task Force officer in Kolkata said.

Indian Government sources on June 26, confirmed reports of more terror operatives’ detention in Saudi Arabia, reports India Today. The revelation occurred after the arrest of Lashkar-e-Toiba (LeT) terrorist, Abu Jundal was acknowledged by the Government. Suspected Indian Mujahideen (IM) operative Fasih Mohammad was one of those detained in Saudi, sources said. According to sources, Saudi Arabia has now emerged as the new refuge and platform for Indian terror modules. The suspected IM operatives get detailed briefing from their mentors about their missions while staying in Saudi Arabia. The modus operandi allows Pakistan to brief IM agents without them travelling to the neighbouring country. IM agents then return to India without Pakistan visa on their passports to avoid suspicion.

The Telegraph reports that the Nagaland Baptist Church Council (NBCC) which initiated a drive for holding free and fair elections in the State ahead of the 2013 general polls, has urged militants not to participate in the electoral process. According to the church, some politicians use the militants as puppets and the election process has nothing to do with the aspirations and pursuits of the militants. “Their involvement has been annoying because by using arms and threats they have been stealing the rights of the general public,” the NBCC said. Over the last 15 years, militants have had a major impact on elections. Working for candidates or parties of their choice, they have been involved in booth capturing, issuing threats, assaults and even murders. Militants in Nagaland have been fighting for sovereignty for over 60 years. The NBCC, expecting things will take a turn for the worse in the next elections, has launched the “clean election” campaign.

A three-day Asia summit on homeland security and counter-terrorism concluded in London on June 27, with a call for more investment in security infrastructure, reports The Hindu. The summit, claimed to be “the first initiative of its kind’’ to bring counter-terror experts, decision-makers, academics and diplomats under one roof and attended by experts from India and Pakistan, discussed the “needs and challenges’’ of Asian homeland security in the age of terror. An important component of the summit was to boost global weapons trade in the emerging Asian markets as countries in the region step up spending on homeland security amid fears of increased terror threats. India’s current annual spending on internal security estimated around USD 17 to 18 billion, is expected to go up significantly in coming years, making it one of the most sought-after markets in Asia for western weapons suppliers.

advisor to the Prime Minister Raja Pervez Ashraf A. Rehman Malik told media persons in Islamabad that no state institutions were involved in the Mumbai strikes. Malik stated, "Abu Jundal is an Indian, he has committed attacks in India, caught in India. India's own Taliban is emerging”. The interrogation of Abu Jundal, the 26/11 handler, has turned out to be an expose of LeT links with the Indian Mujahideen (IM), Jundal has confessed his links with IM, as reported on June 28, by dnaindia.com. NDTV reported on June 28 that Jundal is the highest ranking Indian in LeT and was recruited in 2005. Jundal has told his interrogators that he was recruited by LeT's ‘commander’ of Jammu and Kashmir range Aslam Kashmiri, as reported on June 28, by The Times of India. He said his friend Fayyaz Kagri was the one who introduced him to Kashmiri. Deccan Herald adds that Jundal confessed that the plan to carry out 26/11 type terror strike was plotted in 2006, however, when the security agencies track down arms, ammunitions and explosives from Aurangabad in Maharashtra it was postponed and then he was asked to come down to Pakistan by his LeT bosses. Further, Delhi Police revealed on June 27, that LeT trained Jundal to fly planes. Lashkar had planned to use him and two others (Fayyaz Kagzi from Beed and Mohammad Rahil Sheikh from Thane) in 9/11-style kamikaze attacks on Indian highrise buildings and big dams. They said Jundal’s interrogation revealed that LeT had revived its ‘naval wing’ and added flight training to its ‘curriculum’.

Union Home Minister P Chidambaram said on June 27 that the arrested November 26, 2008 (26/11) attack handler, Syed Zabiuddin alias Abu Jundal, had confirmed the role of Pakistani state actors in the plotting and execution of Mumbai attacks, reports Economic Times. He told media, "When I say state actors, at the moment, I am not pointing a finger at any particular agency. But clearly there was state support or state actors' support for the 26/11 massacre”. Jundal had earlier revealed that a waaris (heir or pointsman) of the "forces", a possible reference to Pakistan Army and Inter Services Intelligence (ISI) had overseen the entire 26/11 operation. The agencies see this as a reference to Sajid Mir, a key coordinator of ISI's Karachi project. Mir, who has allegedly served in the Pakistani Army, was also mentioned by American Lashkar-e-Toiba (LeT) operative David Coleman Headley as a key 26/11 handler. The role of Pakistani state actors is also being suspected from the location of LeT's control room in Karachi as pointed out by Jundal. He has disclosed that the control room was located at a point between Malir Cantonment, Quaidabad and Jinnah international airport in Karachi. This area houses VIPs and top officers of the Pakistan Army. Agencies feel that the control room could not have been set up in this upmarket and highly-secured locality without the connivance of Pakistan state actors like the Army and ISI.

Sixteen cadres of the Communist Party of India-Maoist (CPI-Maoist) were killed and six Central Reserve Police Force (CRPF) troopers were injured after a fierce encounter which took place in the forests of Silger, a “liberated” Maoist zone between Jagargunda and Basaguda in Dantewada District in the night of June 28, reports The Hindu. The operation was launched by the CRPF from three directions. Two Maoists were arrested after the encounter. The encounter is significant, as this is the first time that the CRPF has recovered these many bodies of Maoists. The arrested Maoists have been airlifted to Raipur. Official sources said six CRPF men, including two commandos of Commando Battalion for Rapid Action (CoBRA), sustained bullet injuries and they have been airlifted for medical aid. Preliminary reports suggest that the casualty figures of the Maoists could increase as information from deep inside the forests is trickling in slowly. This is the same area, close to Chintalnar, where Maoists had carried out the biggest ever attack on Security Forces killing 75 CRPF men and one State police personnel in April 2010.

The Judicial commission report into the June 28, 2012, killings at Sarkeguda in Bijapur District of Chhattisgarh says there is no evidence that the 17 persons killed were cadres of Communist Party of India-Maoist (CPI-Maoist), and it has detected “manipulation in probe” after the killings, reports The Times of India on December 2, 2019. A joint team of Central Reserve Police Force (CRPF) and Chhattisgarh Police had gunned down 17 persons at Sarkeguda in the night of June 28. Security Forces (SFs) had claimed they had launched an operation on the basis of inputs about the presence of Maoists in Sarkeguda and killed 17 Maoists. However, locals insisted those killed were not Maoists but innocent villagers, who had assembled for a village meeting. Later, on July 11, 2012, a one-member judicial commission, headed by Justice V K Agrawal, a retired judge of Madhya Pradesh, High Court, was formed which submitted its report to the State Government in November 2019. The Justice Agrawal report doesn’t use the words ‘fake encounter’, but indicates that those killed were not rebels. The panel has pointed out that they killed from “close quarters”, and that one of the victims was gunned down in the morning — several hours after the “encounter” took place. There was no firing by the villagers, but the SFs might have “fired in panic”, the report says. The Justice Agrawal report has also noted that the injuries suffered by six SF personnel were due to crossfire — possibly by bullets fired by forces. Observing that there was “clear manipulation in the investigation”, the commission also doubted the villagers’ claim that they had assembled for a meeting to discuss a festival.

After November 26, 2008 (26/11) Mumbai terror attacks, when pressure mounted on Pakistan to arrest Lashkar-e-Toiba's (LeT) ‘operations chief’ Zakiur Rehman Lakhvi from a camp near Muzaffarabad in Pakistan Occupied Kashmir (PoK), LeT’s Indian command Abu Jundal was bailed out by ISI, as reported on June 29, by The Times of India. After being bailed out, Jundal was asked to stay off the radar and he left for Saudi Arabia in early 2010. He was provided two IDs, one for internal use in Pakistan and one for outside the country. His passport, in the name of Riyasat Ali, was arranged by a senior LeT ‘commander’ and 26/11 plotter Muzammil, and then he fled to Riyadh. During interrogation, Jundal revealed that all LeT members had done some communication practice for Voice over Internet Protocol (VoIP) internet calls and understand the network areas of the targets. The LeT bosses also checked the SIM cards and handsets before the 10 terrorists left for Mumbai and a last-minute drill was also conducted. Special Cell sleuths are scanning Jundal's email IDs and conversations and sources said they have recovered a huge cache of information including "numbers, addresses of various module members and hideouts". With increasing suspicions that state actors have supported LeT to conspire and launch 26/11, the Union Home Ministry (UHM) is unlikely to oblige a Pakistani request to share information about Syed Zabiuddin aka Abu Jundal’s arrest, as reported on June 29, by Deccan Herald. Earlier, on June 26, Union Home Minister P. Chidambaram had said that he had received a note from Pakistan Interior Ministry Adviser Rehman Malik seeking information gathered about Jundal. The UHM is concerned that sharing information with Pakistan would hamper investigation. Zee News adds that according to reports, Jundal has revealed on June 28, before the Special Cell of Delhi Police that LeT is running several training camps in Muzaffarabad in PoK. He said that LeT has made paragliding an essential part of the training curriculum of its cadres. Based on his submission, the security agencies are now trying to verify whether Jundal also received paragliding training. Meanwhile, the National Investigation Agency (NIA) moved for his custody and registered an FIR against him and another terrorist Fayaz Kagzi for planning to organise terrorist attacks in India. Earlier, the FIR filed on June 27, is under several sections of the Unlawful Activities (Prevention) Act. According to the reports, Jundal was sent to Kathmandu in 2005 for training for two months in arms and explosives. After coming back, he got involved with the February 19, 2006 Ahmedabad blast. Further, Jundal revealed that two days before the 26/11 attack, LeT militants carried out a mock drill in Pakistan, as reported on June 29, by Indian Express. During the drill, he used the same phone number and the same satellite phone set that he would use during 26/11. Meanwhile, according to Bengal Police, he used Bongaon District in West Bengal, to sneak from India into Bangladesh before moving on to Pakistan in 2006. While he was in Bengal, he recruited youths from Murshidabad, Malda and North 24-Parganas Districts. IBNLive reported on June 28, that Abu Jundal was planning to attack the Rashtriya Swayamsewak Sangh (RSS) Headquarters in Nagpur as well as the USA and Israeli embassies in New Delhi. Sources say he has told the interrogators that Pakistani intelligence agency, the ISI, destroyed the Karachi control room after LeT ‘commander’ Zakiur Rehman Lakhvi's arrest (December 7, 2008) following 26/11.

Biswamohan Debbarma, the ‘chairman’ of Biswamohan faction of National Liberation Front of Tripura (NLFT-BM) is virtually on the run, reports Assam Tribune. Especially after the arrest of Utpal Debbarma, ‘Foreign Secretary’ of the outfit and surrender of two top-ranking rebel leaders – Tipu Debbarma alias Titus and Salgora Debbarma. Biswamohan went to Myanmar after arrest of Utpal to have dialogue with United Liberation Front of Asom (ULFA) and Nationalist Socialist Council of Nagaland-Khaplang (NSCN-K) leaders for allowing him to establish a permanent base there. Further, both ULFA and NSCN-K leaders have reportedly agreed on providing space to the NLFT-BM for setting up base in Myanmar but on conditions, which include cadre strength, money, arms and ammunition. However, Biswamohan reportedly could not meet the conditions even eight month after the meeting with ULFA and NSCN-K. He, therefore, was not allowed to set up base in Myanmar. The NLFT-BM leader reportedly is e living in Dhaka but keeps changing his ‘house’ frequently to elude security agencies. According to intelligence reports, the cadre strength of the outfit is 135. However, around 70 over-ground collaborators have become ‘very active’, reports suggest. NLFT-BM has eight to nine permanent camps and eleven transit hideouts in Bangladesh despite repeated denials by Dhaka. The permanent camps are situated at Khagrachhari, Segunbagan Hangkong, Sajak, Bolcherri and Maithang.

Intelligence sources said that Abu Jundal, in his interrogation disclosed that following the Mumbai massacre the LeT shifted its headquarters from Muridke to Dolai region in Pakistan occupied Kashmir (PoK) to avoid suspicion, as reported by Deccan Chronicle on June 30. He also told interrogators that once Zakiur Reham Lakhvi was arrested for involvement in the Mumbai attack, Muzamil Bhatt was made the operational head of the LeT. Chidambaram further said there may be another LeT operative by the name of Abu Hamza and Syed Zaibuddin was only using the pseudonym Abu Jundal. Indian Express reported that, a team of the Uttar Pradesh (UP) Anti-terrorist Squad (ATS) plans to interrogate Abu Jundal next week on whether he had any links with the Azamgarh-based Indian Mujahideen (IM) operatives allegedly responsible for several terror strikes.

The Times of India reports that, asserting the role of Abu Jundal, Union Home Minister P. Chidambaram commented on June 29, "In fact many missing pieces of the 26/11 conspiracy are now known to us through interrogation of Abu Jundal. He was a key operative, he was assigned the key responsibility to putting the 10 terrorists in intensive training and the customs followed by Mumbaikars.” He further said, "We think such a control room could not have been established without some kind of state support." About the presence of others in the control room and whether founder chief of Lashkar-e-Toiba (LeT) Hafiz Saeed was also there, Chidambaram said "Yes, others were present and we think one of them was Hafiz Saeed." "All this indicated that these activities could not have been carried out without some kind of state support. That is a logical inference we have to make. It is only when his investigation is complete, his interrogation is completed we will come to know who gave what support. At the moment he is being interrogated," Chidambaram said. Commenting on advisor to the Pakistan Prime Minister on Interior Affairs’ A. Rehman Mallick’s recent statement Jundal was an Indian, he said, "I agree with Rehman Malik that Abu Jundal is an Indian perhaps he was radicalised in India. I admit that. "Equally, Pakistan should admit that Abu Jundal did go to Pakistan, that Abu Jundal was part of the group which trained and prepared Kasab and nine others that Abu Jundal was in the control room and one of the masterminds and handlers of the attack.” Regarding LeT operative David Coleman Headley, Chidambaram commented, "I think the further question is whether we will get further access to Headley, whether he would be extradited to India...These are matters to be discussed with US authorities”, according to Manoramaonline.com.

There was a significant improvement in law and order in the three Communist Party of India-Maoist (CPI-Maoist)-affected Districts of West Bengal with the number of violent incidents and killings of civilians declining, Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee said on June 29, reports newstrackindia.com quoting IANS. She said 235 Left wing extremists have been arrested while 20 of them surrendered to the Police since the Trinamool Congress (TMC) Government came to power last year.

"Position of several people is that the Act must be repealed," he added. Chidambaram also said that the State Government wants some areas in the State, which are designated as disturbed areas under the Act, to be withdrawn from the purview of the Act before the amendments take place.

Nagaland Post reports on June 30 that the National Socialist Council of Nagaland-Khaplang (NSCN-K) expressed dismay over the Government of India’s (GoI) attitude towards the cease fire agreement (cfa) between the outfit and Government of Myanmar. Reacting to the Myanmarese Government declaration that it would “even” go up to the extent of scrapping its cease-fire deal with NSCN-K if the latter was found violating cfa by sheltering other Indian insurgent groups in the Naga autonomous region in Myanmar, NSCN-K viewed that signing the cfa has no negative feelings towards the GoI. NSCN-K Ministry of information and Publicity (MIP) secretary Sangso Mongzar Naga said that the uniqueness of Naga problem lies with Governments of both India and Myanmar. He said solution with GoI would not benefit the Nagas of Myanmar and vice-versa. “As for the NSCN entering into ceasefire with Myanmar authority for the Nagas of Myanmar side, it is because the NSCN wants a simultaneous solution with both from GOI and Myanmar government,” he said.
