The National Investigation Agency (NIA) has claimed to have busted a major Fake Indian Currency Notes (FICNs) racket and arrested 14 persons - including leaders of the gang operating out of Malda in West Bengal - during a nationwide swoop, reports Times of India. The accused were found to have direct links with their coordinators in Pakistan where these notes were printed. Four persons including the Indian kingpin Morgen Hussain were arrested from Malda while four others were arrested in Hyderabad (Andhra Pradesh), three in Tamil Nadu and one each in Gulbarga (Karnataka), Moradabad (Uttar Pradesh) and Delhi. "Arrests show that the gang - part of an international network - had virtually a pan-India presence. Raids are still continuing in nine States including Bihar, Jharkhand, Haryana and West Bengal," said an unnamed official. He added that the seizures and subsequent probe supported India's claim about Inter Services Intelligence’s (ISI) role in its grand design to "destabilize the monetary stability of India" through pumping in huge numbers of FICNs. "Such a high quality of FICNs cannot be printed without government-linked agency's role or support. Though NIA had mentioned this in its earlier charge sheet in similar cases of Mumbai, the current seizures and disclosures made by the conduits have substantiated the charges," the official said. Referring to interrogation of the accused and technical surveillance, the NIA claims that the gang used to get its consignment of high quality FICNs - printed in Pakistan - through its network in Bangladesh and Nepal. It was found during the probe that the FICN -- in denominations of INR 1000, INR 500 and INR 100 - were smuggled to Bangladesh via air route before finally reaching its destination in different north-eastern and West Bengal villages. Besides using usual smuggling network, suppliers of these FICNs in Bangladesh also used to throw the bundles of FICN into the Indian villages bordering Bangladesh. "The accused persons with their aides used to collect the said FICN and distribute the same to the agents spread all over the country," the agency said. "The gang members used to transport the FICNs through trains and other modes of transport to all the states for its circulation. The local agents used to collect 60% of the value of FICNs from the circulators in genuine notes," it added. As per the deal, the genuine currency was then remitted to the bank accounts of the key persons by depositing amounts to the maximum of INR 49,000 to avoid being detected as suspicious transactions. "The network used bank accounts and ATMs for transferring back the genuine currency earned out of circulating the high quality, high value fake currency to the suppliers of the same based in Malda. The raids, which had begun on January 6, have led to the recovery of large number of ATM cards, bank passbooks, SIM cards and FICNs," the NIA said. The agency, which got help from different State Police during the raids, has, meanwhile, alerted the Border Security Force (BSF) to tighten its vigil along the Indo-Bangladesh border in the entire north-eastern region.

The Delhi Police on January 12 seized Fake Indian Currency Notes (FICN) worth INR 60 million from Dabri area in south-west Delhi, reports Times of India. A team managed to get hold of a tempo near Dabri carrying several gunny bags with cloth packets. The seized currency was packed in cloth bundles which had cardboard cabinets, similar to the way textile imported from Pakistan is packaged. Officials said that notes were of INR 500 and INR 1,000 denomination. Two suspected Indian nationals, identified as Mohammad Hasan and Abdul, were arrested with the tempo and interrogated. One more person, whose name was not disclosed, was arrested from there. Police is looking for other suspects including a Pakistani national. On the possible route of the consignment, a source said, "It reached Delhi from Surat via road but we are confirming whether it has come through sea route or has been sent through some other channel. Usually Saudi Arabia and Nepal are used for fake currency smuggling in India". Sources said the consignment seemed to have been sent by Iqbal Kana, a Pakistan-based operative close to Dawood Ibrahim. The exact motive of sending such a large haul is being investigated. Sources say intelligence agencies have several inputs about more fake currency being pumped into northern states before the upcoming Assembly elections. Intelligence agencies and Delhi Police had been on the lookout for the consignment after getting a tipoff 10 days ago about a huge haul of FICN being smuggled into the country. Delhi Police Commissioner B K Gupta said, "This is one of the biggest hauls in the country. The seized fake currency was sent from a foreign country. It looks as good as original." It is the biggest single haul of FICN as it may surpass in final count the total amount of FICNs city Police seized in the past five years. The Delhi Police has seized a total of INR 83.9 million FICNs in 210 cases over the past five years. In the past five years, Police seized FICNs with a face value of INR 8, 39, 07,790, USD 5,800 and Euro 2,000 with 2008 topping the list with counterfeit notes of INR 59.1 million. According to Delhi Police statistics, 2007 saw the second highest seizure with FICNs with a face value of INR 10.1 million in 45 cases followed by 2009 (fake notes of Rs 8.83 million in 47 cases) and 2010 (fake notes of Rs 2.84 million in 33 cases). In 2011, FICNs with a face value of INR 2.82 million were recovered in 44 cases. An analysis shows that notes of denomination of 100 appears to be the favourite among counterfeiters as it is the most seized currency in the past five years.

A Delhiite had allegedly travelled to Pakistan to meet a ‘notorious counterfeiter’ Iqbal Kana and procure Fake Indian Currency Notes (FICNs), Delhi Police claimed on January 13 after seizing FICNs with a face value of INR 22.4 million and arresting two persons from two separate places in the city, reports Times of India. Two persons -- Ash Mohammed and Zeeshan Khan -- were arrested from Karol Bagh and Dabri on January 12 while they were ferrying the FICNs in two separate tempos, Arun Kampani, Deputy Commissioner of Police (Special Cell), said. It was earlier reported that INR 60 million had been seized. Interrogation revealed that Zeeshan’s father Hasan, a resident of Dabri in South West Delhi, had left recently for Faisalabad in Pakistan to meet Kana for facilitating the delivery of the consignment that was intercepted by the Special Cell team. Investigators, meanwhile, believe that the seized FICNs was sent by Kana, who is suspected to have close links with Inter Services Intelligence (ISI). Police sources said the wrappers seized from the clothes used to conceal FICNs had the names of five companies -- Safari Textiles Mills, Four Star Sidiki Processing Mill, Maharani Collection, Kohinoor Suiting and Usmaan Naiem Fabrics -- based in Pakistan's Faizalabad. Hindustan Times adds that FICNs recovered by the Delhi Police were printed at a Government printing press in Karachi. The seizure was made following an intelligence input. The input came after three men, including an Indian businessman and a Filipino national, were arrested in Kathmandu on December 21, 2011. Investigators following the fake currency trail into North India, especially Delhi and Uttar Pradesh, zeroed in on a Nepal-based Indian national, known only by his last name Khanna, who has not been arrested so far. Khanna, officials say, has a Nepalese assistant, Raju, and Pakistani handlers, Aftab Batki and Iqbal Kana (also known as Shahid), according to Times of India. Officials say Batki and Kana sometimes use the sea route to land fake currency in Gujarat and Maharashtra. In Delhi, the currency first makes its way to some dealers in Lajpat Nagar and parts of South Delhi, from where it is routed to smaller dealers.

In most of the cases of ceasefire violations, Pakistan tries to aid infiltration but on some occasions such violations were not related to attempted intrusions, said an unnamed senior Army officer. There are areas along the LoC, which can be used for attempting intrusions but ceasefire violations in the areas where they (Pak) don’t have any scope to try and push militants to this side are done with a purpose of diverting attention of Indian troops. Besides, these are intended to express solidarity with the militants as well, he added. Pakistani troops resort to such ceasefire violations to boost sagging morale of the remaining ultras on this side of the LoC, which, in real sense, is just a deceiving tactic, he added.

Inaugurating a three-day long conference of Directors General and Inspectors General of Police organized by Intelligence Bureau, Union Home Minister Sushil Kumar Shinde on September 6 said in New Delhi that cyberspace had become another tool in the hands of terrorists who post "motivated rumours" in social networking sites thereby creating a new challenge to the security forces in the country, reports NDTV. "There is increasing evidence of resort taken by terrorists to the cyberspace domain. The recent incident in Bengaluru in Karnataka, Pune in Maharashtra and other states of the country where motivated rumours and irresponsible use of the social media networking media posed a new challenge," he said.

India is vulnerable to the global nature of terrorist strikes, Intelligence Bureau (IB) Chief Nehchal Sandhu has said, on September 6, citing the attack on an Israeli diplomat’s vehicle on February 13, 2012 at New Delhi, reports Indian Express. Sandhu said the terrorist attack on the diplomat’s vehicle indicated that India is becoming a hub for global terrorists seeking to target foreigners in the country. “This incident brings to the fore the need to be sensitive to the trends developing in the sphere of international terrorism and an effective international cooperation is needed to prevent such attacks on Indian soil,” Sandhu said. The arrests of Lashkar-e-Toiba (LeT) and Harkat-ul-Jihad-al-Islami (HuJI) terror modules in Karnataka and subsequent investigations on the case exposed the vulnerability of the Indian youth to the radical elements, he said. He urged the top police officers to focus on counter-radicalisation and de-radicalisation policy. Through counter-radicalisation, security agencies should proactively neutralise radical elements. He also said terror modules of LeT and Jaish-e-Mohammed (JeM) are still active along the border. He also called for Centre’s help and technical support to tackle cyber terrorism in states that do not have enough infrastructure to thwart such activities.

Investigations into the plan to attack Delhi during Deepawali (religious festival) by four Indian Mujahideen (IM) terrorists, arrested on October 11, 2012, by Delhi Police, have revealed that its 'moderator', identified as Raju Bhai, may be in Delhi-National Capital Region (NCR), The Times of India on November 6 reported. Raju Bhai operated from Uttar Pradesh (UP) and would travel to his Pul Prahladpur flat in NCR from there to meet the arrested quartet. He was using a UP mobile connection, Police said. About Raju Bhai, an unnamed source said, "He interacted with Asad and Imran in Urdu and would come to the Pul Prahladpur flat on a bike. He was asked to arrange logistics. We suspect he is still in Delhi-NCR. As those arrested don't know much about Raju Bhai, this could be his code name to execute the Delhi Diwali strike." The Pune attackers, Asad, Imran and Feroz had come to Delhi as an 'advance team' to arrange logistics for the blasts. During their interrogation, Police learnt that "several cadres of Lashkar-e-Toiba (LeT) and IM are hiding in Mumbai, Karnataka and Andhra Pradesh. LeT and IM are coordinating with associates of Fayaz Kagzi in Saudi Arabia and Pakistan. Several have entered India and are probably in Delhi."
