The Border Security Force (BSF) seized Fake Indian Currency Notes (FICN) of face value nearly INR 14,00,000 near the Indo-Bangladesh border in the Baishnabnagar Police Station area of Malda District on March 18, reports The Times of India. The consignment is suspected to have been smuggled in by Bangladeshi smugglers and hidden under a culvert. It was seized by the BSF before Indian smugglers managed to reach the spot. The BSF considers this a major seizure. In 2013, BSF seized FICN of face value INR 85,00,000 in this sector. In 2014, so far the haul is INR 18,39,500. FICN smuggled in across the International Border in Malda have been seized in places like Moradabad and Lucknow in the recent past. "We have taken the matter up with Bangladeshi authorities. They claim that much of the FICN reaches their country from foreign shores. The quality of the currency notes keep getting batter, making it difficult to identify a fake one..."said an unnamed official.

Ahead of polling in areas along the borders of Pakistan and Bangladesh, the Union Ministry of Home Affairs alerted Security Forces to step up vigil due to fears that Fake Indian Currency Note (FICN) and drugs could be smuggled into India and supplied to voters, Daily Mail reports on April 20. Over 170 Lok Sabha constituencies in Punjab, Uttar Pradesh, Bihar, Jammu and Kashmir, West Bengal, Assam and Gujarat - the states which share their borders with either Pakistan, Nepal or Bangladesh - will go to the polls in the last four phases of the general election beginning on April 24. The Home Ministry has issued a directive asking security forces to keep strict vigilance along the borders to ensure peace and to check anti-social activities ahead of the polling. "An order has been issued to check trans-border crimes and smuggling of narcotics and fake Indian currency notes through effective domination of the border by carrying out round-the-clock surveillance," said an official from the Home Ministry.

A man, identified as Mohammad Makdum Jalal Shaikh was arrested in Malda District, in connection with Fake Indian Currency Note (FICN) case, Mid Day reports on June 7.

He would then dispatch FICN to his distributors in different parts of the country, who would then circulate the notes in their cities. Police sources stated, “We were on the man’s trail for some time. We received a tip-off that he was supplying fake currency to an accused in Mumbai (Maharashtra). We laid traps in Mumbai and in Malda, and managed to arrest both the supplier and the Mumbai distributor.” An officer who was part of the operation said, “Every state is aware of Shaikh. He has been at the top of the list of people wanted for fake currency rackets. He has a number of cases pending against him, but was never nabbed.

The National Investigation Agency (NIA), which is investigating the Burdwan blast case, in a preliminary report submitted to the Central Government said that there was a conspiracy by the Burdwan terror module to convert West Bengal into a major terror hub over the next few months to carryout subversive activities in different parts of the country, reports The Asian Age on October 18. The NIA along with Central intelligence agencies is investigating the matter which is suspected to have international ramifications also. Police have already arrested three accused in the Burdwan blast, Badrul Alam Molla and two women, Razia and Amina and questioning them regularly over the last few days which has provided some valuable leads regarding the conspiracy. Sources said that the accused have disclosed that they were getting regular assistance both in terms of finance and explosives from “certain elements in Bangladesh” with clear instructions to form a strong terror network in West Bengal. A senior intelligence official said that “Considering the close proximity of the state to the porous Indo-Bangladesh border West Bengal was an ideal choice for making it a major terror hub in the country. The investigations have thrown up important leads and we are working on them. We have already recovered a huge quantity of explosives based on the disclosures of the accused persons and have also identified some members of the terror module who are still on the run.” Sources also said that during the course of investigations it has also come to light that the terror operatives have already made Malda into a major centre for smuggling fake Indian currency notes (FICN). The Times of India on October 18 adds that with mounting evidence that the Jama'atul Mujahideen Bangladesh (JMB) network has spread its tentacles across the central and bordering Districts of West Bengal, NIA has begun visiting each of the suspects' homes and questioning their aides. According to intelligence inputs, JMB cadres are known to recruit from their close and extended families, creating strong blood networks. Sources said that "once you begin questioning these aides of the absconding men, there are chances you can gain valuable leads."

The National Investigating Agency (NIA) expressed its concern that Fake Indian Currency Notes (FICN) continue to be pumped across the border from Bangladesh to fund the activities of outfits like the Jamaat-ul-Mujahideen Bangladesh (JMB) and Indian Mujahideen (IM), reports The Times of India on October 27. The high quality FICNs are printed in Pakistan and routed to India through Bangladesh. NIA sources said that “We now suspect that sending in FICN is a form of the much talked about 'Money Jihad'. A clear pattern has emerged regarding the route of the FICN once it reaches Indian soil. A large part of it is sent to places like Moradabad in Uttar Pradesh that have links to terror outfits. The remaining has been tracked to southern states, particularly to locations from where terror modules are known to operate.” Sources also said that “Despite the developments over the last few weeks that has led to tightening of security, attempts are continuing to push in FICN from across the International Border into West Bengal. Even when IM co-founder Yasin Bhatkal was first arrested, FICN was found in his possession."
