Non Accordist faction of Naga National Council (NNC-NA) has opposed any probe by the National Investigation Agency (NIA) on the Pachaspura killings of nine Karbis, reports Nagaland Post. NNC-NA also stated that the killings which the Naga Rengma Hills Protection Force (NRHPF) claimed responsibilities alleging the victims were supplying arms to the Karbi People’s Liberation Tigers (KPLT) and has also apologised to the Nagaland Government. NNC-NA ‘lieutenant colonel’ S.A Chishi said “Indian government should be aware of relation between Karbis and Nagas of Nagaland as brotherhood”. NNC-NA also opposed the Nagaland government to allow NIA to probe inside Nagaland rather than solving the root cause. It said the Centre should acknowledge the demand of Rengmas of Karbi Anglong as it was a test of its wisdom and maturity.

The Rengma Naga People's Council (RNPC), the apex body of the Rengma Nagas in Assam, urged Union Home Minister Sushil Kumar Shinde to immediately initiate a probe by the National Investigation Agency (NIA) into the recent violence in Karbi Anglong as well as the killings in Dimapur (Nagaland), reports Times of India on January 17. A representation, signed by RNPC ‘president’ Shahi K Rengma and general secretary K Solomon Rengma, stated that the Karbis have also accused the Nationalist Socialist Council of Nagaland (NSCN-IM) of orchestrating trouble in Assam. They added that the allegation needs to be investigated since it relegates the sufferings of the Rengma Nagas and their decades-old agitation for political identity to the sidelines.

The National Investigation Agency (NIA) has registered an open First Information Report (FIR) against ULFA-I under various sections of the Unlawful Activities Prevention Act (UAPA), reports Times of India. This is the first case registered by NIA against ULFA-I. The open-ended case with no accused mentioned in the FIR will help NIA investigate any case or incident committed by the outfit and gives it powers to arrest any of its leaders in connection with the case. It effectively brings top ULFA-I leaders such as Anup Chetia, under detention in Bangladesh, and Paresh Baruah, suspected to be hiding in Myanmar, under NIA radar.

Nagaland Post on February 21 reports that National Investigating Agency (NIA) is probing 15 cases in the North East region dealing with arms smuggling, providing arms to the militant groups by Police personnel amongst others. According to sources major cases under investigation by the NIA in the region are related to smuggling of weapons and ammunition from the Police armoury in Nagaland by some Police personnel to both factions of the Nationalist Socialist Council of Nagaland (NSCN), reports The Assam Tribune. The second major case is the recently registered case (RC-04/2013) against the 'commander-in-chief' of the Independent faction of United Liberation Front of Asom (ULFA-I) Paresh Baruah and others. Another NIA case in the region relates to the big cache of smuggled weapons seized in Mizoram.

The Telegraph reports on April 17 that the National Investigation Agency (NIA) is hoping to extract information from gunrunner Wuthikorn Naruenartwanich, alias Willy, from Thailand, to effectively nail Nationalist Socialist Council of Nagaland-Isak-Muivah (NSCN-IM) leader Anthony Shimray on procurement of Chinese weapons for the outfit. Shimray, who was arrested by the NIA from Nepal in 2010, is currently lodged in a Delhi jail. A source in the NIA said they are hoping to extract some vital information from Willy on the supply of Chinese weapons not only to the NSCN-IM but also to other Northeast insurgent groups. The move follows a Thai court’s nod to extradite the gunrunner. “Willy’s extradition and arrest will also help us build a watertight case against Shimray who is facing trial in an NIA court in Delhi in a case related to a criminal conspiracy for illegal procurement of a shipload of sophisticated arms and ammunition from China,” the source said. Willy was detained by Police in Bangkok in August, 2013 following a tip-off provided by India. A Thai court recently issued an order for his extradition after hearing a request made by India. A non-bailable warrant and a red-corner notice were issued against Willy in this NIA case in 2011. The Indian government had requested Thailand for Willy’s extradition through a diplomatic channel and Indian officers had testified against him in the Thai court. “The Bangkok court has given Willy a period of 30 days to prefer an appeal against the extradition order if he so desires, which will expire early next month,” the source said. After he is extradited, Willy will have to face trial with Shimray in the NIA case (number RC-01/2010).

Times Of India on May 6 reports that the National Investigation Agency (NIA) is likely to sit for a detailed discussion with the state home department in Dispur and draw up a strategy to probe the recent violence in Assam. In response to the request of the State Government, a senior officer of the NIA arrived in Assam on May 5 to finalise the modalities of taking over the investigation. In related news Times of India reports that 26 people including five forest officials have been arrested in connection with the massacre from Narayanguri. Police officials stated that "Empty cartridges of forest department sanctioned rifles and mobile phones were recovered from the villages where the attack took place. The villages are located on the edge of Manas National Park. Preliminary investigations revealed that some of forest volunteers were former militants and still had connections with Bodo ultras."

In Guwahati, the National Investigation Agency (NIA) and Assam Police held a high-level meeting to chalk out a co-ordinated strategy to probe the BTAD killings, The Telegraph reports on May 7. Although the NIA is yet to formally register a case in this connection, the Assam government has referred five cases.

A preliminary report about the violence will be submitted, after which the NIA will formally take up the investigation.

Assam Chief Minister (CM) Tarun Gogoi on October 15 said that his state is more vulnerable to threats from the jihadi elements than Jammu& Kashmir (J&K), reports The New Indian Express. Gogoi said “They (jihadi elements) have for long been trying to set up bases here and I had once told Prime Minister Narendra Modi that Assam is more dangerous than Kashmir when it comes to the threat from them.” “Fundamentalist elements and extremists are all dangerous. Not just the fundamentalist elements, we also have threats from the ULFA (United Liberation Front of Assam) and the NDFB (National Democratic Front of Bodoland),” he added. According to the CM, Assam had once been home to some jihadi outfits. However, the State Government had been able to weed out those. He also said that “We have information that they (jihadi elements in Assam) have links with a Bangladeshi outfit. But their links with the al Qaeda are yet to be established. The NIA will hopefully be able to unearth more.” Six people have been arrested in Assam in connection with the October 2 Burdwan blast in West Bengal and a number of madrasas in the state are now under the scanner.

The National Investigation Agency (NIA), which is probing the October 2, 2014 Bardhaman blast case, has issued lookout notices for at least three persons hailing from Chatala village in Barpeta District of Assam, The Times of India reports on November 12. The three have been reported missing for a while now. The NIA has announced a reward of INR 500,000 for anyone who provides information leading to his arrest. An NIA team visited Chatala on November 11 for the third time since naming Sahanur as key conspirator a few weeks ago. A source said the NIA officials found that at least two to three youth from the village have gone underground. "One of them is Anar Ali, who has not been seen in the village for a long time. He, along with the others, is Sahanur's companion," the source added. The NIA asked the headman of the Chatala village to furnish details of the missing youth. New Indian Express adds that on November 11, NIA raided house of Sahanur Alam at Chatala village. The NIA also summoned the Chatala village chief and asked him to submit a list of the names of those, who had disappeared from the village in recent times.

However, the indoctrination of youths in jihadi philosophy is at a nascent stage,” Additional Director General of Police (ADGP) Pallab Bhattacharya commented.

Assam Police is keeping a close watch on several Non-Governmental Organisations (NGOs) and madrasas (Islamic seminary) across the state to unearth jihadi links, if any, Director General of Police (DGP) Khagen Sarma stated on November 12, reports The Times of India. A joint team of National Investigation Agency (NIA) and Assam Police has discovered valuable leads in the recent Bardhaman blast case, Sarma added. "We are scanning some NGOs, madrasas and other places which might have been used by jihadi elements as shelter and for funds," he said. Sources said a Kerala-based NGO with strong links to the banned Islamic student organisation, Students Islamic Movement of India (SIMI), is trying to spread jihadi operations in Assam. "SIMI has been found using many unusual channels to spread its tentacles across the country. Besides using madrasas, they are also operating under cover of NGOs, socio-cultural clubs and libraries to find new recruits and expand base," a source added. These organisations are spreading religious extremism among the youth, the source said. "These NGOs get foreign funds to build madrasas. A lot of the money is also pumped to feed terror activities through hawala [illegal money transaction] channels," it added. Sarma added that Assam Police have increased security measures at several vulnerable points. "The Kamakhya temple, the secretariat and several other places have been categorized as vulnerable. All protective measures are in place," Sarma said.

The Hindustan Times reports on December 18 that a National Investigation Agency (NIA) probe into the October 2, 2014, Burdwan blast has revealed that Jamaat-ul-Mujahideen Bangladesh (JMB) had prepared a hit list of around 40 to 50 Bodo leaders to assassinate. An unnamed official of the Union Ministry of Home Affairs (UMHA) stated, “Assam was the immediate target of the JMB module detected after an accidental blast on October 2 in West Bengal’s Burdwan. Arrested accused have told counter-terror officials that a dossier-like hit-list of around 40 to 50 Bodo leaders was prepared by the JMB members in which their photographs and other details were mentioned. These Bodo leaders were to be killed in retaliation of anti-Muslim riots in the Bodoland Territorial Area District in the last two years.” He also added, “It seems that around 100 improvised explosive devices (IEDs) prepared by the Burdwan module were meant for Assam. Initially, the suspicion was that the IEDs were being transported to Bangladesh as claimed by some lower rank members of the module. But now, the NIA has reasons to believe that the IEDs were being sent to Assam may be through Bangladesh. The agency is yet to get concrete evidence in this regard as it has not recovered any IEDs in Assam so far”.
