Investigations following the arrest of five members of a group called Base Movement in November 2016 have revealed that a leader of the group was involved in four blasts carried out in Madurai between 2011 and 2014, Indian Express reports on January 16. The five members were arrested by the NIA from Madurai in Tamil Nadu in connection with a series of bomb blasts at court premises in South India. One of the arrested men, N Abbas Ali, who is linked to former operatives of Al Ummah, has revealed that he planted four bombs in Madurai between 2011 and 2014. Ali is accused by the NIA of planning and executing blasts in the premises of courts in Chittoor, Kollam, Mysuru, Nellore and Mallapuram between April 7 and November 1, 2016.Following are the accounts of the Madurai blasts provided by Ali to investigators, which are corroborated by news reports:The May 2011 blast occurred in a dustbin near the crowded Mattuthavani bus stand at 9.15 pm. Nobody was injured in the minor blast. On September 29, 2011, Ali planted a device in a Tamil Nadu State Transport Corporation bus to mark the anniversary of the 2002 killing of Al Ummah leader Imam Ali by police in Bengaluru. The IED, made with materials sourced from firecrackers, was found by employees of the transport corporation and defused. On September 29, 2012, Ali planted an IED outside a TASMAC wine shop in Theni to mark the death anniversary of Imam Ali. The device exploded but no casualties occurred. The fourth blast occurred on February 9, 2014, at the venue of an AIADMK meeting in Madurai. The bomb, placed below the stage, exploded when no one was around. The date was the anniversary of the hanging of Afzal Guru, who was convicted in the 2001 Parliament attack case.“Ali has claimed to have been involved in four blasts in the Madurai region. It seems that these cases are undetected or some others have already been arrested,’’ a source said.

Nine Indians joined the Islamic State (IS) in 2016 - eight from Tamil Nadu and one from Telangana, the National Investigation Agency (NIA) learnt from the central security agencies that interrogated three people who were deported from Abu Dhabi for recruiting Indian for IS, thenewsminute.com reports on February 7.According to the report, the NIA's FIR which was registered on Republic day, both in the capital and in Chennai, says that the agency took custody of the three men who were working in Abu Dhabi on behalf of IS.

The suspected Islamic State (IS) Chennai module, which had a Telangana native in its ranks, received funds from unknown sources in Syria at the behest of the banned outfit, The Times of India reports on February 8. National Investigation Agency (NIA) had registered a case in the last week of January against nine members of the module on the charge of working for Islamic State. Of the nine-member module, only one person actually joined the terrorist outfit, while the rest failed to reach Syria, NIA officials said.The IS sympathisers had reportedly organised several meetings and even chalked out plans to reach the terror hinterland to work in the so-called caliphate. "Based on information available with us, only one person from Chennai reached Syria. Prima facie, we have information that the module got funding from abroad and they were at an advanced stage of executing their plans to reach Syria," the NIA officials told. They were still in the process of identifying the place where they undertook training in Tamil Nadu. The IS module member from the state is suspected to be from Karimnagar in North Telangana and the state Police was unwilling to disclose his identify. Though he hails from Telangana, he had been working in Chennai. It is through social media the nine came to know each other.

The National Investigation Agency (NIA) was questioning two more persons from the Coimbatore city (Tamil Nadu), believed to be ‘close friends’ of the duo who were interrogated two days ago in connection with an Islamic State (IS) module busted in Kannur District (Kerala) last year, reports The Indian Express on August 5. A team of officials, led by a Deputy Superintendent of Police (DSP) from Kerala arrived in Coimbatore and took the youths to a Police station for “questioning” about the movement of their friends from Karumbukadai and Ukkadam in the Coimbatore city. According to Police sources, one youth is running a shop that sells second-hand books and the other a shoe outlet in the city. They would either be released after questioning or taken to Kochi, they said.In the past few days, NIA has questioned “a few persons” from Coimbatore and Alappuzha in Kerala as part of its probe in connection with an Islamic State module busted in Kannur District in 2016. The New Indian Express adds that Basil Shihab of Alappuzha (Kerala), Abdul Rahman, of Ukkadam in Coimbatore, and S Abdullah, of Karumbukadai in Coimbatore, are being questioned by the NIA team at its Kochi office since August 4. Their interrogation will continue on August 6 (today) too. The NIA had on August 3 carried out searches at the residences of these youths.

Union Ministry of Home Affairs (UMHA) held a series of meetings last week to review the terror cases involving Popular Front of India (PFI's) cadre which are being probed by National Investigation Agency (NIA) and Police forces of Kerala, Karnataka and Tamil Nadu, The Times of India reports on October 3. PFI, which claims to be an NGO, could face action under the Unlawful Activities (Prevention) Act-UAPA, if the UMHA concludes that it is sufficiently linked with cases of jihadi terror and promotes Islamic fundamentalism. UMHA sources said there is enough material against PFI, including a dossier from NIA detailing role of its cadres in six terror cases probed by and inputs from states where the organisation's members face allegations of religious extremism, terror and 'forced' conversions to justify a ban.However, NIA recently added to its dossier that originally cited four terror cases involving PFI cadres — chopping of a professor's hand in Kerala's Idukki District, a training camp in Kannur where NIA seized swords and ingredients for making IEDs, murder of RSS leader Rudresh in Bengaluru and the Islamic State Al-Hindi Module case in which IS-inspired youth from Kerala and Tamil Nadu planned to target prominent people and places in South India. Two more cases involving alleged PFI cadres were cited — that of Hadiya alias Akhila Asokan's "forced" conversion and the 2017 IS-Islamic State/Daesh Chennai case where linkages to PFI have surfaced.

A National Investigation Agency (NIA) official’s team questioned two persons in Chennai for their alleged links with the Islamic State (IS) on November 9, reports The Times of India. NIA sources said the two men, identified as Mohammed Jaffer of Kondithope and Sahib of Mannadi, were questioned by a team of officials from Delhi in a secluded place in Chennai city. They were summoned to appear before them to inquire after IS sympathiser Shajahan VK had spilled the beans about them during questioning. NIA officials said Shajahan, hailing from Kannur District in Kerala, was deported from Turkey in July after a failed attempt to enter Syria. The Delhi Police arrested him in July after he was deported from Turkey. The NIA took over a case from the Delhi Police in September. Inquiries revealed that Jaffer and Sahib met Shajahan during their visit to Uttar Pradesh in 2016. Shajahan disclosed to intelligence agencies about the presence of 17 people from Kerala in the IS in Syria and Iraq. Shajahan had visited Turkey for carrying out terrorist activities after procuring an Indian passport in the fake name of Mohammad Ismail Mohideen. He travelled to Turkey from Chennai in February.
