India and Britain repeated their call to Pakistan to bring perpetrators of the November 26, 2008 (26/11) Mumbai (Maharashtra) terror attacks to justice, and resolved to work together to disrupt support systems of groups such as Islamic State (IS), Lashkar-e-Taiba (LeT), Hizb-ul-Mujahideen (HM) and the Haqqanis, Hindustan Times reports on November 13. In a ‘UK-India Defence and International Security Partnership’ document released as Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi began his three-day visit, the two countries said they supported the early finalisation of a Comprehensive Convention on International Terrorism. “The UK remains a strong advocate of a reformed United Nations and is actively engaged in efforts to reform the UN Security Council. The UK continues to support India’s bid for a permanent seat in an expanded Security Council”, the document said. Focussing on a key element of the UK-India relationship, cyber security the document said the UK’s Chevening Cyber Scholarships programme for India will be expanded and a Cyber Security Training Centre of Excellence established. “They will continue and further strengthen their joint work to increase the effectiveness of their law enforcement legislation and capability, and improve their ability to tackle cross-border cyber crime and online child sexual exploitation”, the document said. The UK will provide advice on the setting up of the new Indian Cyber Crime Coordination Centre, and expert-level links will be developed between practitioners and policy makers in this field.

Three militants were killed in Kashmir valley on November 23, in an encounter in South Kashmir, reports Daily Excelsior. Police, 3-Rashtriya Rifles (RR) of Army and Central Reserve Police Force (CRPF) cordoned off Siligam village in Ashmuqam area of Anantnag District of South Kashmir after reports about presence of a group of Hizb-ul-Mujahideen (HM) militants in the village. The militants tried to flee from the village once it was cordoned off but after finding Security Forces (SFs) cordon all around they fired at the troops who retaliated leading to a gun battle. Three HM militants were killed in the gun battle. They have been identified as Sartaj Ahmad Lone of Wopzan, Adil Ahmad Sheikh of Sheikh Mohalla and Tanveer Ahamd Bhat of Baba Mohalla, all in Bijbehara in the District. Three AK-47 riffles, six magazines, one under barrel grenade launchers (UBGL), three UBGL grenades, one pistol with magazine were recovered from the encounter site.

Thousands of youth stoned Jammu & Kashmir Chief Minister Mufti Mohammad Sayeed's ancestral house before hoisting a Pakistani flag on it at Bijbehara in Anantnag District on November 24, to protest against the killing of three Hizb-ul-Mujahideen (HM) militants - Sartaj Ahmad Lone, Adil Ahmad Sheikh and Tanveer Ahamd Bhat, reports The Times of India. Reports said the protesters had taken to the streets in Bijbehara to offer funeral prayers to the three militants who were killed in a gunfight on November 23. The three were from Bijbehara. The slogan-shouting youth clashed with Security Forces (SFs) before targeting Mufti's house. Also, normal life across the Kashmir valley was partially affected due to shutdown called by separatist leader Syed Ali Geelani to protest the killing.

In the rural bylanes and the small towns of West Bengal, terror is hiding in plain sight, Hindustan Times reports on November 26. They sometimes manifest in the unassuming next-door-neighbour with a 9-to-5 job, such as Mehdi Mashroor Biswas, an educated middle class youth from Bengal who handled the IS’ twitter handle from Bengaluru. They also take the form of young housewives trained in using ammunition and making improvised explosive devices in unrecognised madrasas (Islamic Seminary). Thousands of such institutions, many located close to the Bangladesh border, form the base of the radicalisation, training and recruitment of potential jihadists in West Bengal, intelligence officials say. Trainers use video clips, indoctrination documents and short films in Bengali to indoctrinate the youth. These schools often run low-profile training operations, specialising in putting out extremist literature in Bengali and posting such content on Facebook and other social media websites– helping jihadi recruiters lure youth in rural areas. “Years back it was outfits like the Lashkar-e-Taiba (LeT) or the Hizbul Mujahiden (HM) that used Bengal as a conduit and safe haven for cadres to sneak into India from Bangladesh where they arrived from Pakistan. Now terror outfits are on a recruitment drive, both in rural and urban areas. New outfits are showing a kneeling towards organisations like the al Qaida and IS,” said a state Crime Investigation Department (CID) officer. The latest example was seen last week, when Ansar-ut Tawhid fi Bilal al-Hind (AuT) a terror outfit with links to the IS, initiated online propaganda in Bengali to woo Bengali speaking youths in West Bengal and neighbouring Bangladesh. “In Bengal, the situation is critical. For years, a section of unrecognised madrasas have been the hotbed for radicalisation. But the Bardhaman blasts (October 2, 2014) and Masroor’s arrest exposed that the indoctrination and recruitment cells of terror organisations have dug deep,” said a senior Bengal Police official dealing with terrorism. Intelligence sources say West Bengal -- which shares long and semi porous border with Bangladesh -- has been on the radar of Pakistani and Bangladeshi terror outfits for a long time and the radicalisation menace was spreading fast, stoked both by the 10,000-odd unrecognised madrasas and the proliferation of online terror posts.

Clashes and ‘protests’ broke out at multiple places in Kashmir Valley including in summer capital Srinagar after Friday prayers on November 27 against detentions and militant killings, reports Daily Excelsior. Dozens of masked youths assembled outside Jama Masjid in Nowhatta area of Old City in Srinagar after Friday congregation prayers and resorted to stone-pelting on SFs. During stone-pelting, some youth waved flags of Islamic State (IS) and Pakistan.

The Intelligence agencies of the Government of India have put all financial institutions including banks in both Government and private sectors on high alert following reports that dreaded militant outfits like Lashkar-e-Toiba (LeT) and Hizb-ul-Mujahideen (HM) have generated funds worth several crores from within the country and abroad to step-up militancy in India especially Jammu and Kashmir (J&K), reports Daily Excelsior on November 30. Official sources said that reports available with the Intelligence agencies on the basis of investigations conducted by financial wings revealed that the two militant outfits, which were being run through ‘remote control’ from Pakistan and were instrumental in inflicting several casualties of security forces and civilians, had received funds from abroad running into several crores and used them for funding militancy and financing families of both working and slain terrorists. “The Intelligence agencies have asked all financial institutions including banks in Government and private sector to keep strict surveillance on major transactions coming from abroad not only in J&K but other States also as there had been reports that some organizations (from abroad) instead of directly routing the money to J&K were getting it transferred from other States to avoid any doubts,’’ sources said. Reports revealed that the two militant outfits had specifically received funds from various Gulf nations and Pakistan apart from some other countries. However, majority of funds had come from Gulf and Pakistan. Some of the funds had also been received from a couple of States within the country. There had been reports that the money had been distributed by both the outfits among their cadre including militants, their families, kin of slain militants and Over Ground Workers (OGWs) to sustain the militancy, which had suffered major reverses over the past few years. “The militants, facing defeat at hands of security forces, had used new route of luring their cadre with the help of money power. Pakistan and several Gulf countries were used to fetch the money to keep the militancy going,’’ sources said, adding that some of the financial transactions had been detected but by then they had been cashed by conduits of the outfits using fictitious names on the bank accounts.
