Indian intelligence agencies have spotted terrorist training activities in Narowal, the border District, and Sheikhupura District in Punjab province of Pakistan, reports The Times of India on November 4. As per the report, the intelligence alert has been received less than a week from the opening of the Kartarpur corridor for Indian pilgrims. The said corridor connects Dera Baba Nanak Sahib in Gurdaspur District of Punjab in India with the Kartarpur Sahib Gurdwara located in Narowal District of Punjab province in Pakistan. Sources in the intelligence agencies said terrorist training camps are situated at Muridke (Sheikhupura), Shakargarh (Narowal), and Narowal Districts of Punjab province in Pakistan where “substantial number of men and women are reportedly camping and undergoing training”. The said details emerged at a recently held joint meeting of all top security agencies of the country to discuss issues related to border management in Punjab. The biggest challenge, the agencies said, is the opening of the Kartarpur corridor as anti-India activities are likely to be carried out by hostile elements in Pakistan, especially “those likely to come into contact with pilgrims at the shrine”.

Pakistan, on November 4, rejected the media reports about the presence of alleged terrorist training camps in Narowal District of Punjab province, calling them ‘baseless’ and a ‘malicious’ propaganda campaign, reports Tribune India. According to earlier reports, Indian intelligence agencies have spotted terrorist training activities in the said District, where Kartarpur Sahib Gurdwara is situated. A statement released by Pakistan Foreign Office (FO), said that “Pakistan completely rejects baseless reports in a section of the Indian media, attributed to ‘intelligence sources’.” It said Pakistan’s Kartarpur spirit is aimed at facilitating Nanak Naamlevas (followers), especially Sikhs, to visit one of their most revered places of worship and promoting inter-faith harmony. “The content of the media reports in question is part of a malicious propaganda campaign in India that cannot be condemned enough; we have no doubt that such mischievous attempts would be rejected with the contempt that they deserve”, the FO further said.

At least 10 persons were injured on November 29 in an explosion that occurred in a rickshaw in Chauburji area on Multan Road in Lahore, the provincial capital of Punjab, reports Dawn. According to the spokesperson for Punjab's Counterterrorism Department (CTD), the blast occurred at around 11:25am. "Ten persons have been injured including the driver of the rickshaw. All sustained minor injuries. All of the injured were walking near the rickshaw at the time of the blast," he said. A statement released by the CTD spokesperson said that a passenger had boarded the rickshaw and got off at Samanabad after paying the fare. "The passenger was carrying a shopping bag which he probably left in the rickshaw," said the official, adding that the driver "had not noticed it". The driver parked his rickshaw on Multan Road and got off to relieve himself nearby. That is when the blast occurred.

An antiterrorism court (ATC) in Lahore on November 30, announced to indict on December 7 proscribed Jamaat-ud-Dawa (JuD) chief Hafiz Saeed and other JuD leaders who were booked in July for offences pertaining to terror financing, reports Daily Times. Hafiz Saeed, deputy emir Hafiz Abdul Rehman Makki, Hafiz Abdul Salam bin Mohammad, Professor Zafar Iqbal, Mohammad Ashraf, Yahya Aziz, and others were presented before the court on November 30 under strict security. The court was provided copies of nearly two dozen cases registered against the JuD leaders during the hearing which was presided over by Judge Malik Arshad Bhutta, according to Deputy Prosecutor General Abdul Rauf Watoo. “As per law, after the provision of copies to the court, the trial begins. The first step of a trial is indictment,” explained Watoo. The state’s counsel requested the court to hold daily hearings since the copies had been provided. At this, the lawyers for the JuD leaders, Naseeruddin Nayyar and Imran Gul, argued that they be given a week’s time so that they can carefully examine the documents and prepare their arguments. When the state counsel pressed for daily hearings nonetheless, Judge Bhutta said, “The law binds us to hold a fair trial with properly prepared arguments. That’s why everyone should be given time.” With this, he adjourned the trial till December 7.
