PTI reports that a scrap dealer was arrested in New Delhi on April 17, along with counterfeit currency with a face value of INR 1.10 lakh. The accused, identified as Zubair Alam, was arrested from east Delhi on April 17 after the Police received an input about a gang supplying fake notes in the capital.

According to Alam, Maqsood used to get the Indian counterfeit currency notes from Bangladesh and then from Kolkata by train to Delhi. “This currency, which looks exactly like real Indian currency has been produced at a high security manufacturing unit, probably at Malir in Karachi,” sources said, adds Times of India.

A 52-Year old person was arrested along with Fake Indian Currency Note (FICN) worth INR .575 million in Delhi on July 7, Indian Express reported. The arrestee, identified as Ishhaq Ansari of Khargona village in Murshidabad District of West Bengal, during interrogation, said that he procured the fake notes from Murshidabad which were being smuggled into India from Bangladesh.

The National Investigation Agency (NIA) is all set to expand its wings by opening three new offices and increasing the organisation strength from existing 400 to nearly 900, The Times of India reported. The Government has decided to create nearly 500 more posts raising the strength of the counter-terror agency to 900 besides opening offices in Lucknow, Kochi and Mumbai, officials said. The need for opening up of offices in the three cities was felt as Uttar Pradesh is being used by terrorists to infiltrate from Nepal. The State's porous border with Nepal is also being used for smuggling Fake Indian Currency Notes (FICNs) into the country. Mumbai, being a commercial capital of the country, has been often made terror target while Kerala is being used by some terror groups as a recruitment ground for over ground workers who carried of reconnaissance and also indulged in hawala rackets. The NIA was set up in the aftermath of Mumbai terror attacks (November 26, 2008, also called, 26/11) following an act passed by the Parliament and is entrusted with cases related to terror.

A report submitted by the Government prior to the Asia-Pacific Group (APG) annual meeting on money laundering in July had wanted a tab on Pakistan’s strategy to route the FICN into India through Nepal, Bangladesh, United Arab Emirate (UAE), Sri Lanka and South-East Asian countries like Thailand and Malaysia, according to Deccan Chronicle. It said roughly four out of every 1,000 currency notes in the country was fake. Besides FICN enter India through migrant labourers who are agents, from UAE, especially to areas like Malappuram and Chavakkad where the centres work under the façade of clinics or treatment centres. The former Coast Guard Director-General, Prabhakar Paleri, says Kerala is generally a peaceful state and can be a safe destination for the landing of such notes that are sent out, especially from UAE.

Besides usual source of terror funding through hawala (illegal money transfer), narcotics trade and printing/circulation of Fake Indian Currency Notes (FICN), the Template has taken into account `misuse' of 'zakat' (giving alms to poor and needy as prescribed by the Quran) to fund terror activities. It has factored in local issues like reports suggesting\alleging diversion of fund from various 'madrassa’ along border areas to different terror outfits," said a Ministry of Home Affairs (MHA) official.

The security of VVIPs in Punjab is being reviewed in the wake of the revelations made by Sarabpreet Singh alias Prince (30) and his childhood friend Jaswinder Singh (30), Babbar Khalsa International (BKI) militants arrested by Delhi Police on December 22, reports Daily Bhashkar. "Yes, we are in the process of reviewing security of the VVIPs," said Punjab’s Director General of Police Anil Kaushik on December 25. He, however, did not disclose the names. Delhi Police, meanwhile, claimed that that the module had been tasked by BKI chief Wadhawa Singh and an operative Kulbir Singh to assassinate three religious leaders in Punjab and Haryana and some political leaders in Punjab during the upcoming Assembly elections. The duo was allegedly waiting for a consignment of assault rifles and rocket launchers to carry out the strikes. Jaswinder was arrested from Ropar in Punjab where he was allegedly recruiting youths to revive insurgency in the State while Sarabpreet was arrested from Delhi. Times of India adds that the duo was also part of a team that had brought five kilos of RDX to Ambala (Haryana) in October 2011. Sources said they were to be taught to handle rocket launchers by two others. They were directed by BKI chief Wadhwa Singh, who is hiding in Pakistan and runs operations with the help of ISI, to eliminate Baba Ram Rahim. Sarabpreet, who got money through hawala (illegal money transfer) channels, was to receive a huge consignment of arms, explosives and rocket launchers after which a final go-ahead was to be given by Wadhwa directly. According to the Police, the BKI is on an overdrive to recruit cadre, India Today further added. During interrogation, the Police found out that a massive recruitment drive had been initiated by Kulbir Singh, currently based in Hong Kong (on political asylum), and BKI chief Wadhwa Singh. "Joginder [Jaswinder] (one of those arrested) had received a consignment of arms, which we are trying to seize. Since most of the arms sent by Kulbir to Joginder [Jaswinder] were manufactured in China, we are trying to establish the link," an unnamed Police officer said. "They are investing heavily on recruiting people from Punjab for the BKI as it is believed to be a safe and viable option," he added. Indian Express quoted Deputy Commissioner of Police (DCP, Crime) Ashok Chand as saying, “We are searching for the recruits”. The duo has alleged links with Inter Services Intelligence (ISI). Police said the module was tasked to assassinate three religious leaders in Punjab and Haryana, besides a number of politicians. “He was tasked to eliminate Baba Ram Rahim, Baba Pyara Singh Bhaniara and Baba Ashutosh of Ludhiana, apart from certain political leaders of Punjab,” said Ashok Chand. The duo received fake currency worth INR 500000 from Nepal with the help of two suspected members of a Pakistan-based terror outfit, adds Asian Age. The sources also disclosed that the two suspects are believed to have brought the explosives from Jammu and Kashmir which was seized from outside Ambala Railway Station on October 12. “Some evidence has cropped up which suggests that the two may have brought the RDX from J&K. They disclosed that the explosives were to be fitted into timer bombs which were to be used during elections in Punjab. Their handlers in Nepal had promised to send two experts to assist them in making bombs,” sources added.
