The Hindu reports that charge sheet has been filed against the 62 accused in connection with the July 26, 2008 Ahmedabad serial bomb blasts in which 57 people were killed by a special court on January 11. Among the 95 accused, 33 are still absconding (of whom, three are dead). The remaining 62 are in jail and were present in court. The 62 accused belong to 11 different States and were arrested at different times and from different places. Charges include hatching a conspiracy, waging war against the State, murder, attempt to murder, organising training camps for training terror activities, encouraging youths to join terror camps, and others. However, the charge sheet named Abu Bashar, Qyamuddin, Abdul Razeek and Zahid Sheikh as the main conspirators and masterminds of the blasts. The charge sheet mentioned that the conspirators had stolen a few cars from Mumbai, which were then laden with explosives and placed at strategic points in Ahmedabad, including the trauma centre of the Government civil hospital to cause greater damage. The explosives, however, were purchased in Ahmedabad. In other incidents, old bicycles fitted with bombs were used.

Arrested Indian Mujahideen (IM) cadre and September 13, 2008 Delhi serial bomb blast accused Salman Ahmed was remanded to eight-day Police custody on March 8 (today), report Economic Times. The investigators claim that he has already provided some details of the Lashkar-e-Toiba’s (LeT) plans to launch fresh attacks on Delhi, Mumbai and Bangalore.

A joint Police team of the Punjab and Delhi Police neutralised a module of the Babbar Khalsa International (BKI), an outfit backed by Pakistan's Inter-Services Intelligence (ISI), by arresting three militants from Punjab and Delhi, reports Times of India. Two suspected BKI militants, identified as Daljit Kumar alias Deepak of Baltana from Mohali District and Purshotam Singh alias Bunty from Rajoura in Patiala District, were arrested at the Zirakpur-Patiala road near Zirakpur in an operation conducted by the Mohali Police and the Special Cell of Delhi Police in the night of March 18. The third militant of the outfit, identified as Karwinder Singh, a native of Ropar, was arrested in Delhi on March 19. The arrests indicate that BKI is being pressured, just like Indian Mujahideen (IM) terrorists hosted by Pakistan, by its ISI handlers to revive terrorist activities. Senior Superintendent of Police, Mohali, Gurpreet Singh Bhullar said that two France-based terrorists identified as Purshotam Singh of Matheri and Goldy of Ghel, both from Ambala District, were funding the terrorists activities. INR 100000 recovered from the two militants was sent by them. Police also recovered a .455 bore revolver with three cartridges from the two militants. Purshottam Singh, a proclaimed offender, is reportedly one of the accused involved in the assassination of former Punjab Chief Minister Beant Singh, but could not be arrested. He had also tried to eliminate former Haryana Chief Minister Bhajan Lal before Benat Singh's assassination. Preliminary interrogation of the accused revealed that they were planning to carry out blasts in the region to create terror, the cops said, adding that more revelations are expected in the coming days. A case against them was registered at the Zirakpur Police Station and they were produced in the Derabassi court from where they were sent to Police remand till March 21.

A special sessions court in Mumbai on May 3 pronounced Mohammad Ajmal Amir Kasab, the lone surviving Lashkar-e-Toiba (LeT) militant of the November 26, 2008 Mumbai terror attacks (also known as 26/11), guilty of waging war against India, after a 271-day trial, reports The Hindu. The 1,522-page judgment convicted Kasab of conspiring to wage war, along with nine other terrorists and 20 co-conspirators in Pakistan, and of murder and abetment to murder, among other offences. Among the 20 wanted accused indicted by the court are LeT Chief Muhammad Hafeez Saeed and other operatives Zaki-Ur-Rehman Lakhvi, Zarar Shah and Abu Hamza. The arguments for the quantum of sentence will begin on April 4 (today). Special sessions judge M.L. Tahaliyani at the Arthur Road jail court in Mumbai acquitted the other two accused, Indians, Fahim Ansari and Sabahuddin Ahmed, of “all the charges framed against them.” The two had been accused of making and conveying maps of target locations in Mumbai. The court said: “The preparations made for the attacks by Kasab and nine other attackers, and the co-conspirators, the training imparted to the gunmen, the arms and ammunition involved and the quantity of cartridges reached proved beyond reasonable doubt that this was not a simple case of murder but an offence punishable under Section 121 of the Indian Penal Code [IPC].”

The special court which conducted the trial of November 26, 2008 Mumbai terrorist attacks (also known as 26/11) has criticised personnel of Azad Maidan Police Station, saying they acted in a "cowardly" manner and "ran away" instead of stopping the militants, reports Times of India. Instead of coming to the aid of Additional Commissioner Sadanand Date, who engaged the terrorists in a gunfight on the terrace of Cama Hospital and got grievously injured in the process, the officers from the Police station possibly "ran away", Judge M. L. Tahaliyani said in the judgement, a copy of which was made available to PTI on May 24. In addition, the 26/11 special court has come down heavily on the prosecution and investigating agency for submitting "doubtful" and "fragile" evidence against accused Faheem Ansari and Sabauddin Ahmed that led to their acquittal in the terrorist attacks case. "The evidence of the only prosecution witness is doubtful and unreliable. The investigating agency has failed to provide quality evidence against the duo (Faheem and Sabauddin)," the 1600-page judgement, said.

The trial in the July 2006 serial train bomb blast case is scheduled to restart in a special court on May 24 (today), reports Times of India. Seven RDX bombs kept in first class coaches of Mumbai’s suburban trains exploded on July 11, 2006. The Anti Terrorist Squad said that the conspiracy was hatched in Pakistan and at least five of the 13 arrested persons had gone to that country for terror training. The Police also said Pakistan-based militant outfit Lashkar-e-Toiba (LeT) had used the banned organisation, Students Islamic Movement of India (SIMI), to engineer the blasts. The trial started in a special court in December 2007. However, matters could not progress as the accused had challenged the application of certain provisions of law. The legal dispute was finally settled by the Supreme Court in April 2010 before the trial court in Mumbai could hear the case again. The process involved a delay of more than two years. In 2007, Saeed Ahmed, son of serial bombing accused Sohail Shaikh Shabbir Masiullah arrested for the 2006 Malegaon blast, and Zameer Rehman, accused in the Aurangabad arms haul case, had filed petition in the Bombay high court challenging the constitutional validity of Maharashtra Control of Organised Crime Act (MCOCA). When the High Court upheld the decision to slap MCOCA, the accused moved the Supreme Court in 2008 and it stayed their trials.

Times of India reports that a team of Indian investigators has arrived in Chicago, USA and is preparing to interrogate Headley in connection with the November 26, 2008 Mumbai attacks.

The Bombay High Court on June 19 reapplied the Maharashtra Control of Organised Crime Act (MCOCA) to the September 29, 2008 Malegaon blast case, reports The Hindu. The case, as a result, has been transferred back to the Special MCOCA court. The High Court also held that the bail applications of the accused would be heard afresh by the MCOCA court. The court's order was with reference to an appeal filed by the Maharashtra Anti-Terrorism Squad (ATS), challenging the revocation of the MCOCA. A Division Bench of Justices B.H. Marlapalle and Anoop V. Mohta noted that “all the orders [of the Special Court] are required to be quashed and set aside and all the bail applications would stand restored to the file of the Special court for being decided afresh on their own merits.” Sadhvi Pragnya Singh Thakur, Lt. Col. Prasad Shrikant Purohit and Ajay Rahirkar are the accused, who had applied for bail. The arguments pertaining to the application of the MOCCA in the Malegaon case hinged on the issue of cognisance on the two charge sheets filed against accused Rakesh Dhawade prior to the Malegaon blast – one in Parbhani and the other in Jalna. Two previous charge sheets against one of the accused persons of an organised crime syndicate is a requirement for applying the MCOCA. The High Court restored it on the ground that cognisance was taken on Dhawade's charge sheets. It observed that the Special Court's basis for revocation of the Act on the issue of taking cognisance was “against well settled legal position.”

A Delhi court on July 21 issued non-bailable warrants (NBW) against five Pakistanis in a case filed by the National Investigation Agency (NIA), charging them with facilitating terrorist attacks in India, but rejected its application for NBWs against Lashkar-e-Toiba (LeT) chief Hafiz Mohammed Saeed and Zaki-ur-Rehman Lakhvi, the first and second accused, reports The Hindu. While agreeing with the prosecution’s charges against the seven, Special Judge (NIA) S. P. Garg said no purpose would be served by issuing NBWs against Saeed and Lakhvi. For, a Mumbai trial court had issued NBWs against them and subsequently Interpol also issued Red Corner Notices. The NIA counsel had on July 20 said that Saeed and Lakhvi could be issued the “Special Notice” as the Security Council had imposed sanctions on them for their ties to the al-Qaeda and the Taliban. The five persons against whom NBWs have been issued are Karachi residents Sajid Mir alias Wasi and Abdur Rehman Hashim, Pakistani army officers Major Iqbal and Major Sameer Ali, and Pakistan-occupied Kashmir (PoK) resident Illyas Kashmiri. All the accused have been charged under various sections of the Indian Penal Code, the Unlawful Activities (Prevention) Act and the South Asian Association For Regional Cooperation (SAARC) Convention (Suppression of Terrorism) Act for “facilitating terrorist acts and acts preparatory to terror attacks between 2005 and October 2009 in India including Delhi”.
