The ‘Operation All Out’ - the joint offensive launched by Army, Central Reserve Police Force (CRPF), Jammu and Kashmir Police, Border Security Force (BSF) and Intelligence Bureau (IB) to neutralise terrorists in Kashmir has 'triggered' infighting among the top three Pakistani Army and Inter-Services Intelligence (ISI)-funded terror outfits in the State, reports India Today on February 6. According to an exclusive report of the Multi-Agency Centre (MAC) of the IB, Hafiz Saeed-headed Lashkar-e-Toiba (LeT) and Masood Azhar-led Jaish-e-Mohammed (JeM) have requested the ISI to replace Hizb-ul-Mujahideen (HM) ‘chief’ Sayeed Salahudeen with top HM ‘commanders’ like Aamir Khan or Imtiaz Alam as ‘Operation All-Out’ continues to kill more militants. In fact, according to the MAC report, Salahuddin himself has expressed willingness to step down with Khan, Alam and few others lobbying against him. Salahudeen also heads the United Jihad Council (UJC), which was formed by the Pakistan Army and maintains unified command and control over anti-Indian militant groups operating in Jammu and Kashmir. Salahudeen has been the Council's head with the approval of Saeed and Azhar. The UJC comprises 13 terror outfits like Harakat-ul-Ansar, Al-Badr and Tehrik-ul-Mujahideen besides LeT and JeM. Former Director General of Military Operations Lieutenant General Vinod Bhatia said, "Yes, LeT and JeM have asked the ISI to replace Salahudeen because of operations like Operation All-Out which are conducted on specific and right intelligence provided by locals. Kashmiris are fed up of terrorist organisations. LeT and JeM want to remove the breathing space creating by Operation All-Out." "The Pakistani Army and the ISI want to fuel violence in Kashmir. We should ensure that there is no vacuum in the state, especially in South Kashmir," Bhatia said when asked that is it ISI's plan to get a new HM commander to infiltrate more terrorists. "ISI will try to control the infighting because it provides money and weapons to these outfits," he added. Defence expert Shankar Prasad said that the report is good news for India. "If the top three or four terror outfits in Kashmir are fighting among themselves, it is good news for India. It should be encouraged; it is part of tactics," he said. Prasad also said that the ISI also wants to control the outfits. "In the last four to five years, these outfits have become like unguided missiles. They are becoming increasingly independent and getting out of ISI's control. The Pakistani Army and the ISI want to rein in these outfits under pressure from America, which has squarely asked Islamabad to tackle terrorism," he said.

The Kashmiri militant group affiliated to al Qaeda—Ansar Ghazwat ul-Hind (AGuH) on February 5 released a video which claims to highlight the last will of Afzal Guru from Tihar Jail in Delhi, reports Daily News and Analysis. The ten-minute video released by AGuH’s media wing al-Hurr has images of Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi, Pakistan’s former Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif, former United States (US) President Barack Obama and slain Hizb-ul-Mujahideen (HM) militant Burhan Wani. The narrator in the video repeatedly provoked the youngsters from the Kashmir Valley to jihad against the Indian Security Forces (SFs) and considered Kashmir as a ‘jail’ surrounded by the Indian SFs till it gets free from India.

The representatives of India and the European Union (EU) on February 6 pledged to cooperate to deal with terrorism as both [India and EU] seeks to share information and Intelligence on terrorist outfits and their respective safe havens, reports The Hindu-Business Line. India and EU have a lot in common interests and EU is in close contacts with the Indian authorities and organisations on counterterrorism measures. EU is in favour to a rules-based International order, said the Ambassador of the EU to India Tomasz Kozlowski during a press conference. In a statement, both India and EU representatives mutually agreed to strengthen the partnership for decisive actions against the terrorists and terror outfits that are proscribed globally, including Hafeez Saeed, Zaki-ur Rehman Lakhvi, Dawood Ibrahim, Lashkar-e-Toiba (LeT), Jaish-e-Mohammed (JeM), Hizb-ul-Mujahideen (HM), Haqqani Network), al Qaeda, Islamic State (IS) and their affiliates. The cooperation would also focused on sharing information on countering the online radicalisation, and to further enhance the skills through trainings and workshops.

Hizb-ul-Mujahideen (HM) has claimed responsibility for February 6’s attack on a Srinagar hospital during which gunmen shot dead two Policemen and freed a Pakistani Lashkar-e-Toiba (LeT) militant brought for treatment in custody, reports Hindustan Times. In a nearly eight-minute audio released on February 7, Kashmir’s HM ‘commander’ Riyaz Naikoo claimed it was his men who raided the Shri Maharaja Hari Singh (SMHS) Hospital to free LeT terrorist Naveed Jhatt. Naikoo said Jhatt had ‘reached south Kashmir’ safely. On the killing of the two Policemen guarding Jhatt, Naikoo said, ‘They were forced to kill Kashmiris to free their Pakistani brother.’ Naikoo, who took over as HM ‘commander’ after Yasin Itoo’s death, added, “When we saw the children of the two policemen, we were heartbroken because we don’t want to kill any Kashmiri, but people who are aligning with India are forcing us to kill them.” The HM message pointing to collaboration between militant groups did not surprise the security establishment. Jammu and Kashmir Director General of Police (DGP) SP Vaid said such coordination was seen in many other attacks. “All the militants groups are now working together. It’s not just this incident. Lately, we have been seeing many joint attacks by various groups,” he added. The HM is primarily an indigenous group, while the LeT comprises Pakistani nationals who infiltrate into India. The HM mostly trains cadre in forests across Kashmir, while Lashkar terrorists get commando training across the border. LeT spokesperson Abdullah Ghazanwi acknowledged militant outfits were coordinating at all levels and commended Kashmiri militants for the hospital raid to free Jhatt and described it as a “historic” feat. “The incident was an outcome of close coordination and cooperation among various Mujahideen organisations,” Ghazanwi said in a WhatsApp text to the local media. Such collaboration is a departure from the earlier strategy of Pakistan-based outfits to claim credit for attacks, according to a police officer tracking militancy in the Valley. “Now, there is a concerted effort to give attacks on security forces a more local name. Pakistan-based outfits are also trying recruit more locals,” the officer added.

Stone-pelting incidents in Jammu and Kashmir declined to 1,261 last year from 2,808 in 2016, Union Minister of State for Home Affairs Hansraj Ahir informed the Rajya Sabha (Upper House of Indian Parliament) on February 7, The Times of India. The unusually high cases of stone-pelting incidents in 2016 were largely on account of violent protests that broke out after the killing of Hizb-ul-Mujahideen (HM) terrorist Burhan Wani in an encounter in July of that year. The total stone-pelting incidents recorded in 2015 were 730. Hansraj Ahir, in written reply to another question in the Rajya Sabha, said 13 protesters were killed in 2016 due to pellets fired at them, while there were four fatalities from pellets last year (2017). All the 13 killings in 2016 pertained to the four months of unrest following Wani's killing. Ahir said the central Government had constituted an expert committee in July 26, 2016 to explore possible alternatives to pellet guns as non-lethal weapons. The recommendations of the committee were taken into account by the Government for appropriate implementation and accordingly, various measures, including the use of such as using Pelargonic Acid Vanillyl Amide (PAVA)-Chilli (shells and grenades) and STUN-LAC (shells and grenades) and tear smoke shells were used to disperse the unlawful violent protesters before the use of pellet guns, he said.

Police achieved a major breakthrough by unearthing the escape plot of Lashkar-e-Toiba (LeT) ‘commander’ Naveed Jhat and arrested 16 militants and their Over Ground Workers (OGWs) in this connection on February 8, reports Daily Excelsior. The Special Investigation Team (SIT) investigating the escape of LeT commander from SMHS Hospital, picked up 16 militants and OGWs from South Kashmir and Budgam. Ten militants and OGWs were picked up from South Kashmir while six suspected were rounded up from Budgam. However, Additional Director General Police (ADGP) and Inspector General (IG) Kashmir, Muneer Khan told a press conference in Srinagar that four persons including militants and OGWs were arrested in connection with the escape of Naveed. “To expedite the investigations, a SIT has been constituted by DIG CKR, Srinagar. The SIT so constituted conducted initial investigation and during investigation names of the following terrorists and OGWs involved in the commission of this act of terror, have surfaced”, he said. He said Shakeel Ahmad Bhat son of Mohammad Ramzan Bhat of Lelhar Kakapora Pulwama, Tika Khan son of Abdul Ahad Khan of Singu Narbal Pulwama, Syed Tajamul son of Syed Mohd Syed of Pahu Pulwama and Mohammad Shafi Wani son of Ghulam Mohi-ud-Din Wani of Singu Narbal Pulwama were arrested while Hilal Ahmad Rather son of Ghulam Rather of Begam Bagh Khan Mohalla Kakapora, Pulwama is still at large. However, sources said that Rather has joined Hizb-ul-Mujahideen (HM). Khan said that from the possession of Shakeel Ahmad Bhat and Tika Khan a pistol each with ammunitions has been recovered. “During the course of investigation it was established that Hilal, Shakeel, Tika Khan were masterminds in the whole conspiracy. Tika Khan has also been a frequent visitor to Central Jail Srinagar and was in contact with Naveed Jhat. He visited Central Jail on different pretexts. Moreover, Naveed and rest of the gang were in communication using mobile devices during the conspiring stage”, he said. He said that the escape of Naveed was hatched some months back from Central Jail and LeT and HM were actively involved in it. “However, the final planning to effect the conspiracy was done few weeks back at the residence of Tika Khan along with Hilal Ahmad Rather, Syed Tajamul, Shakeel Ahmad Bhat and Mohammad Shafi Wani”, he said.

According to the Intelligence inputs, the ‘Chiefs’ of Pakistan-based terror outfits, Lashkar-e-Taiba (LeT) and Jaish-e-Mohammad (JeM) are leading the campaign against the ‘Chief’ of Hizb-ul-Mujhaideen (HM) Syed Salahuddin to step down as the leader of the outfit—further points to the development in the rivalries in the ranks of Pakistan-based jihadi outfits that operates against India, reports The Times of India on February 16. Syed Salahuddin—who headed the HM and the United Jihad Council (UJC) with support of Pakistan’s Inter-Services Intelligence (ISI) has been facing decline in the influence over Kashmir-centric operations and growing ambitions of other terror outfits. ISI is under pressure to remove Syed Salahuddin whereas LeT and JeM have made Salahuddin’s commanders—Amir Khan, Imtiyaz Alam, against him, read an Intelligence input.

The Jammu and Kashmir Government approached the Ministry of External Affairs (MEA) for deportation of around 25 militants and other prisoners of three neighbouring countries including hostile Pakistan, Myanmar and Bangladesh as their prolonged stay in different jails of the State, is being perceived as ‘security risk’ especially in the wake of day-light escape of Lashkar-e-Toiba (LeT) terrorist Naveed Jatt from Srinagar hospital few days back, reports Daily Excelsior on February 23. Official sources said that there were around 25 militants and prisoners from Pakistan, Bangladesh and Myanmar, who have been kept in different jails under the Public Safety Act (PSA) after they had completed the term of the sentence given to them by the courts for the offences committed by them including subversive activities, illegal border crossing, drug trafficking etc. “We have written to the External Affairs Ministry through the official channels mentioning details of terrorists and prisoners, whose cases were fit for deportation to their countries, to take up the issue with Embassies of Pakistan, Myanmar and Bangladeshis on the ground that their prolonged stay in the jails of Jammu and Kashmir is not in the interest of the State,” sources said, adding that the MEA has been asked to take up the matter urgently with Embassies of three nations to ensure early deportation of the foreigners. “Security audit of all jails of Jammu and Kashmir is already on under the instructions of Union Home Ministry and Jammu and Kashmir Government to prevent Naveed Jatt like escape in future,” sources pointed out. Sources, however, declined to share name of the militants and prisoners and the jails they were lodged in view of ‘security considerations’ but put their number ‘around 25’. They said majority of them were Pakistani militants while few others belonged to Bangladesh and Myanmar. “All Pakistani nationals were terrorists while those hailing from Bangladesh and Myanmar were involved in either illegal border crossing, drug trafficking or other such activities,” sources disclosed. The Pakistani militants, due for deportation, belonged to different outfits including LeT, Jaish-e-Mohammed (JeM) and Hizb-ul-Mujahideen (HM) and had operated in different areas of Jammu and Kashmir before being arrested by Security Forces (SFs).Sources attributed delay in deportation of foreign criminals to ‘non-cooperative attitude’ of Pakistan and Myanmar Governments but noted that Bangladesh Government was quite liberal in this regard, mainly due to good friendly relations with India. While Pakistan, most of the times, refuse to recognize their nationals despite being given very ‘credible evidence’ especially those, who were involved in major terror acts, Myanmar out rightly refused to take back their nationals. However, it was only Bangladesh which accepts their nationals and agrees for their deportation after their nationality is established.
