The abducted Indian Forest Service official, D Sathyen, was released unharmed in the South Garo Hills district of Meghalaya on July 2 after about a fortnight amidst claims by the State Government that no ransom had been paid to the abductors, according to Assam Tribune. Sathyen, who is in-charge of Balpakram National Park, was escorted back to the Divisional Forest Officer's office at Baghmara in the South Garo Hills district, said Principal Chief Conservator of Forests V K Nautiyal. Sathyen's wife, an employee of State Bank of Travancore at Kochi in the State of Kerala, had appealed to the abductors through e-mail to free him, saying her family would not be able to pay the ransom demanded for his release. Director General of Police L Sailo told Press Trust of India in the capital Shillong that "I do not think any ransom was paid for Sathyen's release." He added that despite the Achik National Volunteers' Council (ANVC) disclaimer, it was believed that the banned outfit was "very much responsible".

The Union Government said on July 2 that a cease-fire call by terrorists in Jammu and Kashmir (J&K) will be a "welcome step." "If they (militants) announce ceasefire, well it is a welcome step. Let them say it," Home Minister Shivraj Patil said during an interview in New Delhi. He was responding to a query whether the new Government will initiate a cease-fire in J&K on the lines of the announcement made by the previous Government during Ramzan period two years ago. Further, while stating that talks with the separatists could not go beyond the framework of the Indian Constitution, Patil added "the Centre is willing to talk to anybody who is willing to talk to us but with preparation. Without preparation if you jump into it (talks), nothing comes out." The Home Minister also observed that there has been no escalation in violence in J&K going by the feedback the Government has received. According to him, "incidents have taken place but if you take sum total... I don’t think there is a scope to come to the conclusion that there has been an escalation."

The visiting US Deputy Secretary of State, Richard Armitage, said in New Delhi on July 14 that the terrorist infrastructure in Pakistan still exists and stressed that infiltration, which continues, should end. "Clearly, all the infrastructure that supports cross-border terrorism has not been dismantled… Some has been dismantled," Armitage said at a press conference when asked whether the US was convinced that Pakistan had dismantled the terrorist infrastructure existing on its soil. On infiltration, he said "any level of infiltration is too much from our point of view. There is infiltration. You get various opinions here about whether it is up or down. It is down probably. But the point is not to have it at all." On the situation in Jammu and Kashmir, he said, after a meeting with Prime Minister Dr. Manmohan Singh, that "people are still dying. It is not acceptable." During his day-long visit, Armitage also had meetings with External Affairs Minister Natwar Singh, Defence Minister Pranab Mukherjee and the National Security Adviser J N Dixit.

A media report indicated that on July 14 the High Court (HC) of Lisbon, Portugal, has ordered the extradition of Monica Bedi, associate of Indian mafia don Abu Salem, an accused in the 1993 serial bomb blasts in Mumbai. The Indian Central Bureau of Investigation’s (CBI) petition seeking directions to keep Bedi in custody till her extradition trial was also accepted by the HC. The order was communicated to the CBI officially on July 16 by authorities in Lisbon. The HC had ordered her extradition in November 2003, which was, however, challenged by Bedi in the Supreme Court, which sent the case back to the former asking it to give a reasoned order as to why she should be extradited. She is currently serving a two-year jail term awarded by a lower Portuguese court on charges of entering the country on a forged document and continuing to use the same for stay in that country. Monica Bedi and Abu Salem were arrested by the Lisbon police on September 18, 2002.

On July 21, the Andhra Pradesh Home Minister, K. Jana Reddy, announced that the ban on the left-wing extremist (also known as Naxalite) outfit, the People’s War Group (PWG), and its six frontal organizations - Radical Students Union, Radical Youth League, Singareni Karmika Samakhya, All India Revolutionary Students Federation, Dandakaranya Adivasi Kissan Mazdoor Sanghatan and Andhra Pradesh Rythu Coolie Sangham - has been allowed to lapse. The Government has decided not to extend the ban, due to expire on July 22, as a prelude to direct talks with PWG representatives, the minister added. Before the announcement, Home Minister Reddy reportedly consulted the PWG emissaries — Gaddar, Varavara Rao and Kalyan Rao — and the mediators named by the Government — K.G. Kannabiran, S.R. Sankaran, Potturi Venkateswara Rao, A.B.K. Prasad, Keshav Rao Jadhav, Bojja Tarakam and S. Seshaiah. The Home Minister also informed that the modalities and other logistics for talks would be finalised in two or three days and made public. The ban on the PWG was first imposed on May 21, 1992, by the Congress Government led by N. Janardhan Reddy. It was lifted on June 21, 1995, by N. T. Rama Rao after the Telugu Desam Party returned to power. It was reimposed by his successor, N. Chandrababu Naidu, on July 22, 1996.
