Police teams investigation May 1, 2014 Chennai train blasts ruled out the involvement of the Students Islamic Movement of India (SIMI) module headed by Patna (Bihar) blasts-accused Haidar Ali, The Times of India reports on May 29. While Ali and his three associates, arrested by NIA on May 19, denied involvement, their claims have been corroborated with their location being found in Jharkhand at the time of the Chennai blasts. "As of now, there is nothing to suggest that Haidar Ali and his associates were involved in the Chennai blasts. However, there could be involvement of some other module of the same organization," an internal security officer said. The other suspect in the case, Tamil Nadu-based terror outfit Al Umma, is also being ruled out. It was being suspected that Abu Bakr Siddique of the outfit may have carried out the attacks. But investigations failed to establish a motive behind the attack and also the justification for a Tamil Nadu outfit operative to board the train in Bangalore and time the blasts for Nellore in Andhra Pradesh. The blasts happened in Chennai because the train was running almost 90 minutes late. Interrogation of the Patna blasts accused revealed that Indian Mujahideen (IM) operative Tehseen Akhtar, named in the First Information Report (FIR) as one of the accused, may not be involved in the blasts. "There is no evidence of Tehseen's direct involvement in the blasts. As yet there are only indications of Tehseen giving ideological support to the Haidar-led group," said the officer.

A Sri Lankan national, Arun Selvarajan was arrested by National Investigation Agency (NIA) on September 10, in Chennai (Tamil Nadu) for spying in India on behalf of Pakistan's Inter Services Intelligence (ISI), reports The Times of India. Selvarajan, sources said, was caught with pictures of Officers Training Academy and National Security Guard (NSG) hub in Chennai apart from other vital installations. Sources said he is part of the ring of spies recruited by Pakistani diplomat in Sri Lanka Amir Zubair Siddiqui. NIA sources said Selvarajan was carrying two passports and had gained entry into vital installations such as the NSG hub in Chennai as an event manager. He had also recced crowded places in Chennai for suspected terror attacks in future. "He was being handled by one Saage in Pakistan embassy in Sri Lanka after Siddiqui was sent back by Pakistan government recently," said an officer privy to investigation details. An NIA statement said Selvarajan "has been indulging in espionage activities at the instigation of a neighbouring country. He is found in possession of two passports i.e., from Sri Lanka and India. He is learnt to have gained access to certain vital installations in the guise of managing events. He was passing on information using internet communication tools. Incriminating evidence has been seized from him which is under scrutiny."

Officers of the National Investigation Agency (NIA) are interrogating a woman student of a dental college after Sri Lankan Inter-Services Intelligence (ISI) agent Arun Selvarajan, revealed about his relationship with her and his accomplices in Tamil Nadu, The Times of India reports on September 19. Investigating officers have taken in the woman for questioning as well as another of Selvarajan's associates, an undergraduate student at a top college in the city. The investigators are looking to determine if they were aware of Selvarajan's ISI connection and if they helped him collect information about sensitive installations in Tamil Nadu. "Selvarajan, who opened event management firm Ice Events in Nungambakkam in the city, helped the dental college student invite celebrities to a college function held earlier this year," an investigating officer said. Investigators also took Selvarajan to Sri Lankan refugee camps in Tiruvallur and Kancheepuram to identify people he often met from the camps.

The National Investigation Agency’s (NIA) probe into the Burdwan blast (in which two suspected militants were killed and another person was injured on October 2 in Khagragarh area in Burdwan District of West Bengal) is pointing to a bigger plot extending not just to neighbouring Assam, but also to Jammu & Kashmir (J&K) and the southern states of Tamil Nadu and Kerala, reports The Times of India on October 12. The NIA has, based on leads gathered from the women arrested from the Burdwan blast site, picked up a suspect from J&K, a construction worker belonging to West Bengal. The J&K suspect, to whom calls were made from the SIM cards seized from Rajira Bibi, wife of militant Shakil Ahmed killed in the blast, was found to be in touch with two other suspects in Birbhum District of West Bengal. The NIA is now on the lookout for the duo. An official said that “Phone records reveal that they had contacts in almost all the major megacities, also in South India. We will have to verify the antecedents of each and every contact. Six of the Assam-based suspects who were in touch with the two men killed in the blast have already been arrested.”

Sources said that NIA on October 14 summoned three persons from Chennai, Tamil Nadu for interrogation in connection with the case, reports Deccan Chronicle. The terror blast case, which has cross-border ramifications, is reportedly spread from West Bengal to Assam and South India. Karnataka has also sought information from the West Bengal Police and NIA about the case and the support network of JMB. Official sources said that “We are at a security risk because we have a sizeable population of illegal Bangladeshi immigrants in Bengaluru and other Districts.” However, despite initial suspicion that the Burdwan blast might be linked to a terror module of either the al Qaeda or the Islamic State of Iraq and Syria (ISIS), both the NIA and Central Intelligence agencies have now categorically ruled out any such possibility, reports The Asian Age on October 16. Two alleged terrorists believed to be members of the JMB died in the Burdwan blast and it was being initially suspected that the JMB had directed them to set up terror modules in India for either al Qaeda or the ISIS. Sources said so far the probe has not revealed any al Qaeda or ISIS link though the investigations are progressing at a fast pace.

The National Investigation Agency (NIA) on October 24 filed a chargesheet in a Chennai (Tamil Nadu) court against the Sri Lankan national Sakir Hussain and two others for conducting espionage on behalf of Pakistan's Inter-Services Intelligence (ISI) and plotting to attack Israeli and United States (US) consulates in Chennai and Bangalore, reported The Times of India. . The chargesheet has cited as evidence photos of vital installations in India, emails exchanged between the accused and a Pakistani embassy official in Colombo, Sri Lanka and forensic analysis of Fake Indian Currency Notes (FICN) recovered from the accused at the time of arrest. The Chargesheet has also listed 40 witnesses. Sources said that the Sri Lankan national was hired by Pakistan embassy official Aamir Zubair Siddiqui who had been building a network of spies from the country to conduct espionage in India. Hussain had, in turn, hired Siva Balan and Mohammed Saleem who were arrested with FICN. There are a total of nine accused in the case including the Pakistan embassy official.

After investigating the October 2, Bardhaman blast case, the National Investigation Agency (NIA) has unearthed several calls to Tamil Nadu, Mumbai (Maharashtra) and Jammu and Kashmir, and the investigators have zeroed in on Wadala West, a slum in Mumbai from where numerous calls were made to and from Bardhaman, Birbhum, Murshidabad and other parts of the country, The Times of India reports on November 4. "The calls have been made from an area that is between Wadala and Kingscircle railway station and this area is mainly dominated by Bengalis from Bangladesh. There is a possibility that the people who have fled from West Bengal might have taken shelter in this particular area," NIA sources said. NIA officers are finding it difficult to penetrate the zone because of its geographical location and population density. It is a densely populated slum of more than 450,000 residents, 80 percent of whom are Bangladeshi migrants. "Some have managed to acquire Indian documents like Voters ID cards, driving licenses and ration cards but many more stay here hiding their identity. Police and district administration find it difficult to penetrate this zone," an NIA officer investigating case said.Apart from Mumbai, several calls were made to Jammu and Kashmir and Tamil Nadu. NIA officers feel that if the operatives have their presence in Mumbai and Jammu and Kashmir, then the magnitude of the crime is more diverse than expected. The entire spree of calls caught the NIA's notice after analysis of one of Shakil Ahmed's (killed in the blast) phones recovered from the blast site. It was found that more than 23 SIM cards and international calling cards were used in that single phone. Investigators unearthed the calls made to different states and abroad on analysing the phone's details through EMI number.

Enforcement Directorate (ED) officials have booked a case against Abraham Jayakumar, a karate master in Kanyakumari District for hawala (illegal money transfer) transactions in Tamil Nadu, The Times of India reports on November 12. National Investigation Agency (NIA) officials have also started inquiring into the background of the accused, after suspicion of his links with some terror groups in the Middle East. ED officials have booked him under provisions of Foreign Exchange Management Act, 1999. They also raided many places in connection with the case and seized INR 6.25 million hawala money. Following a tip-off, ED officials conducted a surprise check at Jeyakumar's house in Kovilvilai near Keezhkulam in Kanyakumari. Officials said the money recovered was a part of the amount transacted through hawala on behalf of a person in Saudi Arabia. Meanwhile, ED officials have alerted central investigation agencies including NIA to further interrogate the suspect.
