After the recent Communist Party of India-Maoist (CPI-Maoist) attacks led to the death of Police personnel in Gadchiroli District, the Maharashtra Government has come up with an INR one billion plan to strengthen the State Police department in the Maoist-affected Districts on June 2, Indian Express reported. State Home Minister Jayant Patil said in the Legislative Assembly that, “INR one billion allocation will be made in the Budget for restructuring the Police department by setting up anti-Naxalite centres from Nagpur to Gadchiroli and combing the Nagpur, Gondia and Gadchiroli Police ranges under a DIG (Deputy Inspector General). In the next one week, approvals will be sought and work will begin.” He also said the plan includes increasing the armed outposts in the border areas from the existing five to 15, adding that, “We have realised that armed outposts in the border area need to be increased. There have been instances of Naxalites (left-wing extremists) attacking and moving to the neighboring State to evade identification.” These armed posts will have 60 State Reserve Police Force personnel unlike the regular 12 men. The borders will also be protected by construction of periphery wall and will have watchtowers at regular intervals, he added.

Expressing "disappointment" over the release of Saeed, the External Affairs Ministry spokesman Vishnu Prakash said: "It is regrettable that notwithstanding this background and the international obligations it entails on Pakistan, he has been released." He said Saeed’s release "raises serious doubts over Pakistan’s sincerity in acting with determination against terrorist groups and individuals operating from its territory". Prakash noted that Saeed is the head of JuD and LeT, which are listed by the UN under UNSC Resolution 1267 as being affiliates of Al Qaeda and the Taliban. "Hafiz Saeed is specifically listed as linked to these terrorist groups," he said, adding "the Lashkar-e-Toiba and the Jama’at-ud-Da’awa have a long and well established background of planning and launching terrorist acts against India. His professed ideology and public statements leave no doubt as to his terrorist inclinations".

India on June 2 strongly objected to Pakistan’s attempt to link the Kashmir issue to terrorism in the region and maintained that bilateral dialogue would resume only when Islamabad creates conditions for it, Daily Excelsior reported. "It (terrorism) has nothing to do with Kashmir. Terror whether it is in Kashmir, in Mumbai or elsewhere, it is abominable," External Affairs Minister S. M. Krishna told reporters in New Delhi. He was responding to Pakistan Prime Minister Yusuf Raza Gilani’s remarks that Kashmir issue "holds the key to durable peace in the region" and said that it must be resolved through "sincere dialogue". Krishna pointed out that Kashmir is a part of the composite dialogue that India had initiated with Pakistan. "Now it is in Pakistan’s court to create conditions for the dialogue to be resumed," he stated. The composite dialogue, which began in January 2004, was suspended by India after the 26/11 attacks carried out by the Lashkar-e-Toiba (LeT) terrorists based in Pakistan.

Quoting the State Home Ministry officials, Times of India has reported that the Orissa Government plans to deploy 11,000 armed Policemen to combat the insurgency. At least half of these forces would reportedly be ready for on-field operations in the next two years. "The situation is extremely bad. In many interior pockets even Police Stations are closed after dusk and Government officials are avoiding to go to office. Travelling in Malkangiri, Koraput, Rayagada, Gajapati, Kandhamal Districts in particular are shunned by people unless there is emergency," said an unnamed senior Koraput District official. The Director General of Police Manmohan Praharaj said on June 2 that "Geographical location and remoteness of the places are impediments to effective policing there.

The state and the group are ready to sign the agreement. The group has also expressed its readiness to sign the peace deal as soon as possible,” an official source said.

The National Socialist Council of Nagaland-Khaplang (NSCN-K) has expressed willingness to hold talks with the Union Government, according to Nagaland Post. “NSCN (K) is ready for dialogue provided a formal invitation is sent to us”, said Kughalu Mulatonu, a NSCN-K leader. “Since IM can’t solve the problem and talks have come to a deadlock”, that’s why we are willing to come forward to carry on talks, said Mulatonu in New Delhi, where he was reportedly exploring the options for talks. Mulatonu accused the rival National Socialist Council of Nagaland-Isak-Muivah (NSCN-IM) leadership of being “not serious” in solving the problem of Nagas. “Muivah is in Europe and Isak Chishi Swu is in China. If they are serious then they should be amidst the Naga people”, argued Mulatonu. He also blamed the NSCN-IM leadership of being a stooge in the hands of the Union Government and claimed that recently Muivah was in Somalia at the behest of the Government, a claim denied by the NSCN-IM when contacted.

Sentinel reports that the Mizoram Government has decided to take back the Bru refugees who are residing in six refugee camps in north Tripura. During a meeting of all political parties convened by the Mizoram Home Minister R. Lalzirliana at Aizawl a few days back, matters pertaining to the repatriation of the Brus, who migrated to Tripura in late 1997 when the Bru National Liberation Front (BNLF) cadres asked them to leave Mizoram or be in the crossfire as they were launching armed rebellions against the Government and the people of Mizoram, were discussed. The meeting concluded that identification of bonafide Bru citizens precedes repatriation and that the identification is based on electoral roll of 1993 and ration cards prior to 1997. It also agreed that the identification process be completed before September 15, 2009. Home Minister Lalzirliana was quoted as saying that the repatriation of Bru refugees would begin soon after the completion of identification process.

The recovery of 5000 Chinese made AK bullets from Sabjian forests in the Mandi sector of Poonch District a couple of days back has given a credible impetus to intelligence reports that weaponry supplied by China to Pakistan army is being diverted by the latter to militants operating in Jammu and Kashmir. Official sources told Daily Excelsior that a large box dug out by the troops of Rashtriya Rifles and Special Operations Group from an underground hideout of the militants in Sabjian forests carried the mark of Chinese make. Though the recovery of Chinese grenades from the militants or their hideouts has been a routine, this is for the first time that China made AK bullets have been recovered during an anti-militancy operation. Intelligence reports had already been suggesting that a number of weapons supplied by China to Pakistan army have been forwarded by the latter to training camps of different militant outfits, including the Lashkar-e-Toiba (LeT) in Pakistan and Pakistan occupied Kashmir.

The Lashkar-e-Toiba (LeT) cadre arrested on June 4, Mohammad Omar Madani, reportedly ran a logistical hub that funnelled dozens of militants through Nepal to targets across in India, Delhi Police sources told The Hindu. Working with fugitives like LeT commander Mohammad Saifullah, the Bihar-born Nepal national Madani provided LeT operatives with passports, cash and communications facilities that allowed them to travel from Pakistan to India through Kathmandu and then secure their escape. Fahim Arshad Ansari, who is now being tried on charges of having generated the videotape that facilitated the training of the perpetrators of November 26, 2008 attacks in Mumbai, is among those alleged to have benefited from the logistical infrastructure Madani helped set up. Sabahuddin Ahmed, Ansari’s immediate superior and the first Indian national to have commanded a LeT’s field unit, also used the Lashkar’s transit hub.

The Orissa Police have asked the Coast Guard to patrol the State's 480-long coastline during the annual Rath Yatra (Car Festival) of Lord Jagannath at Puri on June 24, reports Times of India. The move, part of enhanced security preparedness for the famous festival, has been influenced by the Centre's advice to States to step up Policing along the coast. Orissa's coast is reportedly unmanned with only a thin security presence. But, with a view to prevent entry of subversive elements to the pilgrim town during the Rath Yatra attended by millions of devotees, the top Police brass has requested the Coast Guard to remain extra vigilant, said the Inspector General of Police Arun Sarangi on June 5. "We are taking all possible steps to ensure peaceful celebration of Rath Yatra,'' he added.

Three hardcore militants of the Lashkar-e-Toiba (LeT) and Hizb-ul-Mujahideen (HM) outfits were killed by the Security Forces (SFs) during an encounter on June 5 at Mandrala under the jurisdiction of Gandoh Police Station on the Doda-Himachal Pradesh border, Daily Excelsior reported. Senior Superintendent of Police Parbhat Singh said a joint team of Police and Army launched a search operation after securing specific information that three commanders of LeT and HM outfits were hiding in village Mandrala for the past few days. "It would have been difficult to trace the militants had they slipped into the territory of Himachal Pradesh", Singh said, adding that SFs surrounded the hideout before asking them to surrender. However, all three militants opened heavy firing on the troops and tried to break their cordon to escape. In the ensuing encounter, the troops killed the three militants who have been identified as Zafarullah, Shabir Ahmed and Nazir Ahmed. Official sources said Zafarullah and Nazir were section and area commanders respectively of the HM outfit while Shabir Ahmed was deputy district commander of the LeT. Recoveries made from the incident site include one sniper rifle with telescope, its two magazines and 19 rounds, one AK rifle with one magazine and 9 rounds, three grenades, detonators, wire, explosive devices, identity cards, letter heads of HM and LeT outfits besides some incriminating documents of the two outfits and personal belongings of the militants.

While unveiling the draft of special action plan sent by the Union Government to combat the Maoist insurgency, the Director General of Police (DGP), Manmohan Praharaj, said on June 5 that fighting Maoists in 17 of the 30 Districts in Orissa has become tough due to a lack of infrastructure, reported Zee News. "We are facing difficulties in training security men to fight Maoists in jungles and difficult terrains of Malkangiri and other places," said the DGP. While rejecting suggestions that Maoists rule over entire Malkangiri, he admitted that "a small part of Malkangiri" close to Andhra Pradesh and Chhattisgarh borders in high altitude remained difficult for the security personnel. "Some places in Malkangiri remain under control of the ultras," he added, saying, "Besides constructing helipads and other facilities, the police are planning to set up security hubs and mobile camps in the region." Of the 17 Maoist affected Districts, Malkangiri and Rayagada would be covered under the special plan, fund for which would be provided by the Union Government. He further said that for tackling the spurt in violence in Malkangiri, one battalion (nearly 1,000 personnel) of Central forces, deployed in northern part of the State, would be mobilised to the southern region mostly in undivided Koraput District. Commenting on a long term solution to the insurgency, Praharaj said besides recruiting about 400 local tribal youths, the State Government was also considering special steps to improve the socio-economic condition of local residents. The DGP also said, "Once the capacity building is complete in Orissa, things will be easy for the security personnel to contain violence in Malkangiri and other places," adding, "No Police informer is killed. They kill innocent people and name the victim as Police informer. We have no informer from among the public."

PTI reports on June 7 that left-wing extremists generate INR 15 billion income through collection of 'levy' in the seven worst affected States of Jharkhand, Chhattisgarh, Andhra Pradesh, Orissa, Bihar, West Bengal and Maharashtra, said security agencies. The extremist’s literature and documents seized by central security agencies and State Police forces during their operations have revealed intricate details of "levy" extorted by groups which run in several hundred crores every year. The 'levy' is not only paid by the contractors working in the areas dominated by the extremists but also by the industrial houses including some of the nationally reputed ones, the officials said. Though the Communist Party of India-Maoist (CPI-Maoist) still remains the prominent Naxalite group in Jharkhand, there are other splinter groups which too have now started imposing 'levy' besides indulging in kidnapping, looting and narcotics trade, which results in around INR 3 billion as annual income from the State.

The Assam Government alerted security formations in North Cachar Hills District asking them not to be taken in by the BW’s unilateral cease-fire declaration, as it could be a ploy to launch strikes in retaliation to the arrest and killing of its top leaders. A source in the Government said Dispur has received no communiqué yet from the outfit declaring the three-month unilateral truce and as such, nothing had changed on the ground. David Dimasa, commander of the group’s “north zone”, who called up a few reporters last evening to announce the cease-fire, promised that the outfit would abjure violence, and asked the Government to consider its demands. “Operations are on irrespective of what has been reported by the media and the Security Forces are in a search-and-destroy mode,” an official said.

The Hindu reports that the Union Government will soon launch a new scheme, 'Modernisation of Forest Administration', to improve the forest administration and simultaneously tackle the growing menace of Communist Party of India-Maoist (CPI-Maoist) cadres in Orissa, Jharkhand, Chhattisgarh, Madhya Pradesh and Bihar, said the Union Minister of State for Environment and Forests Jairam Ramesh on June 7. He said as many as 186 tribal-dominated Districts in the country were affected by the Maoist insurgency and that there is a close connection between forest areas and Maoists. These 186 Districts comprise 30 per cent of India's land area and 60 per cent of the country's forest area, the Union Minister noted. "We are working on the details of this scheme and the Centre will extend full financial assistance to the State Governments in implementing it. Andhra Pradesh has not been included in the scheme as it has been relatively successful in tackling the Maoist menace," he added.

According to Indian Express, a ‘divisional commander’ of the Communist Party of India-Maoist (CPI-Maoist) and his wife surrendered before the Orissa Police on June 8. The Ghumusur ‘divisional commander’ Akash alias Dora alias Ghasiram Majhi and his wife Jharana, who is also a Maoist, surrendered before the Raygada District Superintendent of Police. “He was a very senior member in the Maoist hierarchy of Orissa, next only to Sabyasachi Panda, the chief of the rebels in Orissa,” said Sudhanshu Sarangi, Inspector General of Police (anti-Naxal operations). Akash, a resident of Kharikapadar village in Rayagada District, joined the Maoist ranks seven years ago and rose to become the outfit’s Ghumusar division commander a few years ago. “He was involved in over 12 Maoist attacks in the State including several high-profile attacks but of late he had grown disillusioned with the Maoists. We were in touch with and had been trying to persuade him to surrender,” said a senior Police official. Akash will reportedly get homestead land and other benefits as per the Orissa Government’s surrender policy for the insurgents.

Quoting the Chief Minister of Assam Tarun Gogoi, Assam Tribune has reported that the Assam Government is going to continue with its operation against the Black Widow (BW) and not respond to the unilateral cease-fire announced by the outfit after the arrest of its ‘chairman’ Jewel Garlosa. The Chief Minister said the State and Union Governments are very clear about what they want and a gesture of three-month cease-fire would go unanswered from their side, unless the militant outfit agrees to adhere to the stringent pre-conditions. The pre-conditions include laying down of arms and ammunition, a complete halt to all illegal activities including collection of funds, extortion, abduction, confinement within the designated camps among others. He mentioned that almost all militant outfits, which have entered into cease-fire pacts with the Government, have violated it with impunity. The NDFB, United People’s Democratic Solidarity (UPDS) and Dima Halim Daogah (DHD) factions have all taken advantage of the cease-fire pacts and indulged in illegal activities like extortion, collection of taxes, gun running, bomb blasts and abductions, he added.

In order to tighten maritime security, the Centre is planning to substantially increase the number of coastal Police Stations along the country’s 7,516 kilometre coastline besides increasing the areas under "No-Fishing Zone" around vital installations, including nuclear establishments, coastal dams and minor and major ports, reports Times of India. The matter was discussed at a meeting chaired by the Union Home Secretary Madhukar Gupta on June 10 when coastal security was reviewed. The meeting also reviewed steps taken for better coordination among different organisations — Navy, Coast Guard, Marine Police of States — besides the intelligence agencies to increase security vigil. Sources in the Union Ministry of Home Affairs (MHA) said that Navy and Coast Guard were asked to provide assistance to States in recruiting and training executive and technical staff for coastal Police stations. Besides, the States and Union Territories (UTs) were asked to ensure availability of the required infrastructure and trained manpower for handling and upkeep of interceptor boats. The meeting focused on firming up additional requirements of coastal States and UTs based on vulnerability or gap analysis in consultation with the Coast Guard, for the purpose of formulating the proposed Phase II of the Coastal Security Scheme. In addition, officers also reviewed the status of implementation of other linked initiatives such as registration for fishing and other vessels, installation of communication equipment on these boats and uniform system of issuance of identity cards to fishermen. Sources said that the Gujarat Government has been asked to notify two of the dams located in the State as important installations as soon as possible. The issue of possible attempts by the Liberation Tigers of Tamil Eelam (LTTE) cadres to enter southern States also figured in the meeting, they added.

The Union Home Minister P. Chidambaram said in Srinagar on June 11 that the Centre would like the Jammu and Kashmir Police (JKP) to play the primary role in maintaining law and order in the State. Chidambaram, who took part in the meeting of the Unified Headquarters chaired by Chief Minister Omar Abdullah, said the Central Government would prefer to see the paramilitary forces like CRPF in a secondary role to the JKP. The meeting, which was attended by top security and intelligence officials of the Central and State agencies, also discussed the issue of reorganisation and reorientation of Central paramilitary forces, especially the CRPF, in the State. Some of the participants reportedly favoured a gradual handing over of duties like guarding vital installations and protecting VIPs to the JKP. An official spokesman said Chidambaram asked the Controlling Officers of CRPF and State Police to sit together to work out a strategy for gradual substitution of CRPF by J&K Police in the essential duties that should ordinarily be performed by the Police. Advocating a step by step approach, he said "we would like to take small, baby steps one by one and no great leap in Kashmir."

Dilip Nunisa, the chairman of Dima Halim Daogah (DHD), said that slow progress in peace talks between the Government and DHD is one of the main reasons for the deterioration of the overall law and order situation in North Cachar Hills District.

He said that though five years have passed since the dialogue began, not much headway has been made and the Government is yet to make clear what it could give the Dimasa people for their political safeguard and economic upliftment. Nunisa blamed the Government for the sharply deteriorating situation in North Cachar Hills District and alleged that over the years, the Government and the SFs failed to contain the activities of the BW militants.

The Delhi Police filed three supplementary charge sheets in a court on June 12 against three suspected Indian Mujahideen (IM) cadres, Mansoor Asghar Peerbhoy, Mobin Kader Sheikh and Asif Bashir Sheikh, for reportedly sending terror e-mails to media houses prior to the serial bomb blasts on September 13, 2008, reports Indian Express. The charge sheets were filed in the court of Chief Metropolitan Magistrate, after the Police completed their investigation into the roles of Peerbhoy and his associates. Peerbhoy, a computer engineer who had worked for Yahoo Inc, along with Asif and Mobin, had entered into criminal conspiracy with other IM cadres for carrying out the blasts, the Police said. Peerbhoy, reportedly the head of the IM’s media cell, used to hack Wi-Fi networks while Mobin, a graduate in Computer Science, drafted the mails, which were then translated from Urdu into English by Asif before being sent to media houses, the Police confirmed. The accused are facing prosecution under various provisions of the Indian Penal Code, Explosive Substances Act, Unlawful Activities (Prevention) Act and the Information and Technology Act.

According to Telegraph, the Naga warring groups have signed a joint declaration to resolve “all outstanding issues” among themselves in the “larger interest” of the Naga people and for an early solution to the Naga political problem. The “Covenant of Reconciliation” was signed by the National Socialist Council of Nagaland-Isak-Muivah (NSCN-IM) chairman Isak Chishi Swu, National Socialist Council of Nagaland-Khaplang (NSCN-K) chairman S.S. Khaplang and S. Singya, the president of Naga National Council. The “historic” declaration was made after the 5th Naga Reconciliation meet which concluded at Chiang Mai in Thailand on June 8. The meet was held at the behest of the Forum for Naga Reconciliation (FNR). The FNR convenor Rev. Wati Aier on June 15 said the declaration would give a “new direction” to the Nagas. The leaders of the outfits said they would pursue Naga reconciliation and forgiveness based on the “historical and political rights of the Nagas”. “We resolve to continue to work together in this spirit of love, non-violence, peace and respect to resolve outstanding issues amongst us,” the three Naga leaders stated in the joint declaration. Since its inception in March 2008, the FNR has organised 10 meetings of the groups both within and outside the country. As a follow-up action, it would organise another meeting of the representatives of the Naga militant factions in the middle of August 2009 in Dimapur. “This is the wish of the Naga people,” Rev. Aier said. The FNR’s reconciliation process is reportedly supported by many international organisations like Quakers from United Kingdom and American Baptist churches.

The Hindu reports that the Communist Party of India-Maoist (CPI-Maoist)-infested States have asked the Centre to provide nearly 25,000 additional para-military troops and helicopters to counter left-wing extremism. The Union Ministry of Home Affairs (MHA) sources said Jharkhand, where 19 of the 24 Districts are affected by the menace, has asked for additional 12,000 personnel over and above the 6,000 personnel already stationed in the State. Similarly, Chhattisgarh has demanded about 8,000 more para-military personnel. Orissa too has demanded about 5,000 additional personnel of Central Forces and is reportedly also considering the possibility of raising its own anti-Maoist force on the patterns of the Greyhounds force in Andhra Pradesh. All left-wing extremism hit States have also asked for at least one if not more helicopters to help in the movement of troops and early evacuation in case of an emergency. The demands came after the MHA asked the States to come up with a Plan of Action for launching a new counter- offensive measure.

The Nagaland Home Minister, Imkong L. Imchen, said on June 16 that apart from the five Naga groups, ten non-Naga militant outfits based outside the Sate are active in Nagaland and indulge in extortion, abduction and other anti-social activities, according to Nagaland Page. The Minister said these groups are operating in Nagaland in connivance with the Naga outfits. The non-Naga groups are Nunisa faction of the Dima Halim Daogah (DHD), Black Widow (BW), Kuki Revolutionary Army (KRA), People’s Liberation Army (PLA), United People’s Democratic Solidarity (UPDS), Gurkha Liberation Army (GLA), People’s United Liberation Front (PULF), All Adivasi National Liberation Army (AANLA), National Democratic Front of Bodoland (NDFB) and United Liberation Front of Asom (ULFA). Nagaland has five local outfits: the National Socialist Council of Nagaland-Isak-Muivah (NSCN-IM), National Socialist Council of Nagaland-Khaplang (NSCN-K), and the three Naga National Council (NNC) groups. The Home Minister said apart from these outfits there are several outfits that are also operating in Nagaland. So far 10 ULFA cadres, two Kangleipak Communist Party (KCP) cadres, 13 KRA cadres, one People's Revolutionary Party of Kangleipak (PREPAK) cadre, 31 UPDS cadres, eight PLA cadres, eight PULF cadres, one GLA cadre and 67 cadres of other non-local Northeast outfits have been arrested in the State in 2009. All the arrested militants were booked under National Security Act, with special exemption of Naga cadres of the Naga groups, due to cease-fire between the Centre and these groups. Most of these militant outfits are active in and around Dimapur, the nerve centre of crime and anti-social activities. Imchen said the Naga groups are harbouring the non-local militants and collecting illegal taxes from business establishments and shops. He said despite the Government's best effort to curb the menace of extortion it is still very high.

"While the Bengal government accuses the Centre of not sending adequate paramilitary forces to counter Maoists, the ministry of home affairs has urged the state to impose a ban on the outfit. Till this is done, the menace cannot be controlled. But instead of considering a ban, the state government has even withdrawn its Police forces from the areas where Naxalites are operating. Under the circumstances, central forces who do not know the terrain or the people will be of little help," a Ministry of Home Affairs (MHA) source said.

The six motorcycle-borne assailants killed the three persons, including CPI-M’s Shimli branch secretary Amal Mahato, when they were having tea at a shop after patrolling the forest in the night to guard against Maoist-backed tribal agitators. The three were part of a village resistance group approved by the administration to assist the Police, Jhargram Sub-Divisional Officer Ulganathan said. The Hindu adds that three houses belonging to the CPI-M leaders were ransacked and set ablaze in areas adjoining Lalgarh, parts of which have been rendered inaccessible with roads dug up by activists of the Maoist-backed People’s Committee against Police Atrocities (PCPA) to prevent the entry of Central Paramilitary Forces being deployed in the region.

The Centre on June 22 banned the Communist Party of India-Maoist (CPI-Maoist), terming it a terrorist organisation, The Hindu reported. It invoked Section 41 of the Unlawful Activities (Prevention) Act against the extremist outfit. The CPI-Maoist came into existence following the merger of the People’s War Group (PWG) and the Maoist Communist Centre (MCC) in September 2004. The ban was to avoid any ambiguity though all formations and front organisations of the PWG and the MCC came under the purview of the ban. Union Home Minister P. Chidambaram said the merged organisation would continue to be listed as a terror organisation. “When I looked into the matter a couple of days ago, I said that may be the position in the law. In order to avoid any ambiguity, let us add the CPI (Maoist) by name in that schedule of the Act.”

The Hindu reports that the Communist Party of India-Maoist (CPI-Maoist) cadres ambushed a Police team at a court premises in the Lakhisarai District in the afternoon of June 23 and freed Misir Besra, a member of the Central Military Commission (CMC) and Politbureau of the banned CPI-Maoist, after shooting a Policeman dead and hurling bombs to scare away people. The District Development Commissioner Rajiv Ranjan, who was sitting in his office adjacent to the court complex, sustained splinter injuries as bombs were hurled freely by nearly 30 Maoists who entered the court premises on motorcycles, S.K. Bhardwaj, the Inspector-General of Police (Operations), said on the phone. The ambush of the Police team took place when Besra was being taken out of the court. The Maoists also snatched away a carbine and two rifles from the Police escort team. The District borders were later sealed and a massive manhunt was launched. “The Police located them near a river on the town outskirts and were chased by Policemen travelling in a Mine Proof Vehicle (MPV). However, the motorcyclists drove through the river and the MPV could not follow them. But the police managed to nab two Maoists and seize two motorcycles,” Bhardwaj said.

The Special Sessions Court trying the Mumbai terror attacks case on June 23 issued a non-bailable warrant (NBW) against 22 of the 35 wanted accused, including the Jama’at-ud-Da’awa (JuD, the Lashkar-e-Toiba [LeT] front) chief Hafiz Mohammad Saeed, who was released in Pakistan recently, The Hindu reported. Judge M. L. Tahaliyani granted the prosecution plea on the ground that most of the accused found mention in the confessional statement of lone captured LeT terrorist Mohammad Ajmal Amir alias Kasab. Other pieces of evidence include phone records of CallPhonex. Besides, the accused were charged with conspiring to wage a war against the Government of India. “Almost all are citizens of Pakistan or are at least residing in that country,” the court noted on the basis of the addresses provided by the prosecution. Special Public Prosecutor Ujjwal Nikam referred to Kasab’s statement to cite the involvement of the 22 accused in the conspiracy. Most of them were shown to have played the role of trainers. Saeed was a professor, who led the JuD and visited a training camp before 26/11, Nikam told the court. Zaki-Ur-Rehaman Lakhvi was the ‘operations commander’, Abu Hamza, the training in-charge, Abu Al Kama and Muzammil, the ‘area commanders’, Zarar Shah, in-charge of the publicity wing, and Abu Mufti Saeed, the president of the Muridke training camp. The money trail led to Mohammad Ishfak, who paid $250 in the name of Kharak Singh. VoIP (Voice over Internet Protocol) records showed the name of a Col. R. Saadat Ullah. Abu Kaahfa, Abdul Rehaman Chota, Abu Abdur Rehman, Abu Fahad Ullah, Abu Anas, Abu Bashir, Abu Imran, Abu Umar Saeed, Sajid Iftikhar, Khurram Shahdad, Abu Mavia, and Abu Hanjila Pathan were the remaining accused against whom warrants were issued. The addresses of the conspirators spanned the provinces of Punjab and the North West Frontier Province. The locations included Muzaffarabad in Pakistan occupied Kashmir, Gujranwala, Sheikhupura, Lahore, Muridke, Mansehra, Multan, Peshawar and Rawalpindi. Saeed hailed from Lahore’s Johar town. The 22 warrants will be addressed to the Commissioner of Police, Mumbai, and the Director of the Central Bureau of Investigation for execution. The CBI’s Interpol wing will then coordinate with Interpol, Pakistan, and seek its help to arrest and produce the accused before the court.

On whether to use the Army to fight the Maoists, he said: “This requires a police action, who are competent to handle it” Chidambaram said, adding choppers would be provided to Orissa “whenever required”.

According to The Hindu, the Centre has asked the Government of West Bengal to declare the Communist Party of India-Maoist (CPI-Maoist) as an "unlawful association" under a 1908 Act as its scope is much wider than the Unlawful Activities (Prevention) Act (UAPA) enacted in 2008. Union Home Ministry officials said the West Bengal Government has been advised to declare the CPI-Maoist as outlawed because of the fact that the UAPA, under which the Centre outlawed the outfit on June 22, is essentially directed against unlawful associations that support secession. "The Criminal Law Amendment Act, 1908 (CLAA) has a very different objective. It is directed against associations which encourage or aid person to commit acts of violence or intimidation. The power is vested in the state government to declare an association as unlawful," a Union Home Ministry official said.
