Pakistan has failed to deliver on its promise that it would not allow its territory to be used by terrorists to attack India, Prime Minister Dr. Manmohan Singh said on April 1, accusing Islamabad of taking “no effective action” to tackle anti-India groups, The Hindu reported. Describing Pakistan as the “epicentre” of world terrorism, he said the Government in Islamabad was either not able to control terrorists or was “not willing to control them.” Dr. Singh, who is in London to attend the G20 summit, urged the international community to hold Pakistan to its commitment to rein in terrorists. “The world has a responsibility that Pakistan lives up to the promise that it will not allow its territory to be used to promote acts of terror directed against India,” he told the Financial Times. Asked why he thought that the Lashkar-e-Toiba (LeT), which was responsible for the Mumbai attacks in November 2008, regrouped so quickly and appeared to be “menacing” India again in Kashmir, Dr. Singh said: “It is because the promises that the government of Pakistan have made to control terrorism and all its instrumentalities, they are either not able to control them or they are not willing to control them ... In the past, it has been our experience that there are elements in the armed forces of Pakistan, some segments of the ISI [Inter-Services Intelligence] involved in perpetrating acts of terror, particularly the attack on the Indian embassy in Kabul. We have been told that the ISI in Pakistan has a different mindset. I hope that is right.” The Prime Minister also stated, that “We are victims of terrorism and we hope that whatever the world community plans to do they will pay adequate attention that terrorism ceases to be a problem in Afghanistan as well as Pakistan. We all know the epicentre of terrorism in the world today is Pakistan. The world community has to come to grips with this harsh reality.”

A top Lashkar-e-Toiba (LeT) militant, ‘district divisional commander’ Yusuf Gujjar alias Kamran, and his two associates were shot dead by Security Forces (SFs) at village Sarawan in the Kishtwar District on April 2. Deputy Inspector General of Police (Doda range), Hemant Kumar Lohia, told Daily Excelsior that SFs launched a search operation at Sarawan at 10 am after securing specific information about the presence of three top militants, including Yusuf Gujjar, in the area. During the encounter that ensued after a search operation was launched, all three of them were killed. Unconfirmed reports said that a Territorial Army trooper, Zafarullah, who had deserted his battalion in March 2009 and joined the LeT outfit, was also present in the area. His killing in the operation has not been confirmed so far by the SFs. It has, however, been confirmed that Zafarullah had joined Yusuf Gujjar’s group after deserting the Army. Recoveries made from the incident site include one AK-56 rifle with three magazines, four grenades, six Chinese grenades, one pistol and a large quantity of ammunition.

Nawaz was brought to Bangalore recently from Muscat, capital of Oman, in connection with the probe into the Bangalore serial bomb blasts in July 25, 2008.

Jasim also named a woman Muslim scientist from Uttar Pradesh working on the Agni missile project as a potential target.

According to Hindustan Times, an Indian Mujahideen (IM) militant, identified as Mohammad Saddik Shaikh, has revealed that Pakistan had rewarded the financier of the outfit to carry out terrorist activity in India. The revelation was made in the confessional statement opened by the Special Maharashtra Control of Organized Crimes Act (MCOCA) court in Mumbai on April 9. “Amir Raza, financier of IM, was paid handsomely by high ranking officials from the Pakistan Army to conduct terrorist operations in India,” Saddik said in the statement. According to the statement, Saddik had gone to Pakistan in 2003 where he met Colonel Atif, who had given him two envelopes to be delivered to Raza. Raza used to transfer money through the Western Union Money Transfer firm and hawala (informal money transfer system) for conducting weapon and explosives training in Pakistan and for other IM requirements. Saddik reportedly first visited Pakistan after the 1992-93 Mumbai riots and underwent training. “From Karachi airport I was taken to LeT [Lashkar-e-Toiba] office where I met their chief Azam Cheema. I was then sent to Muzzafarabad where I underwent training for over 25 days in weapon handling and how to assemble explosives,” Saddik said. “After a group of boys came back from training, Raza asked me to show my work. With the help of Riyaz Bhatkal, founder of IM and other members, I conducted blasts in Delhi, Varanasi in Uttar Pradesh and in several other places,” Saddik has confessed. From February 2005 to September 2008, the IM conducted blasts in several cities like Gorakhpur, Hyderabad, Uttar Pradesh, Delhi, Jaipur, Ahmedabad and Surat, Saddik has said in his confession.

Union Home Minister P. Chidambaram has stated that four Pakistan-based terrorist outfits are “working in consort” and there was mention of the Taliban in intercepts of their conversations, The Hindu reported. While saying the threat level in the country was “pretty high”, he disclosed on April 10 that the Lashkar-e-Toiba (LeT), the Jaish-e-Mohammed (JeM), the Jamiat-ul-Mujahideen (JuM) and the Hizb-ul-Mujahideen (HM) were earlier operating separately but had come together. “We simply have to keep our powder dry. Make sure that we remain on high alert because four organisations are working in consort. That means the level of threat is pretty high,” he told NDTV. “I don’t think anyone has captured anyone to identify him as a Taliban. All that we know is that there is a serious attempt to infiltrate into India,” Chidambaram said. He was responding to a question on reports that about 30 Taliban terrorists had entered Kashmir.

A Lashkar-e-Toiba (Let) militant, identified as Nissar Ahmed, was killed along with his girl friend and an accomplice at Dori Bhagla in Doda District on April 19, Times of India reported. Doda Deputy Inspector General of Police H. K. Lohia said that Nissar had slipped through the Police net more than once in the past and that his girlfriend Zahida Bano (20) proved crucial in tracking him down. "Nissar, one of the most wanted terrorists in the district, was proving very elusive for us till we stumbled upon his affair with Zahida," he said. He said as soon as Police came to know about the affair, sleuths were hot on her trail. Zahida was kept under watch for 10 days. "We closed in on Nissar when we discovered Zahida was to meet him," Lohia said. A team of Security Force personnel followed Zahida to Nissar's hideout. "Nissar and Mohammed Rafiq Nazni, another terrorist accompanying him, were asked to surrender. When they didn't, security forces fired at them," Lohia said. He said Nissar and Nazni were killed while Zahida was critically injured. "Zahida, who had been working for the LeT as an Over Ground Worker (OGW), later died in a local hospital." Lohia also said that a LeT OGW arrested last week had tipped the Police about Zahida's terror link. Superintendent of Police Parbhat Singh said the two militants had been active in the forest area around Doda for a long time. "Their elimination is a major success for counter-insurgency operations in the area," he said, adding, two AK-47 rifles were recovered from the encounter site.

Intelligence agencies have recently ascertained that a joint meeting between militants of the Lashkar-e-Toiba (LeT), Jaish-e-Mohammed (JeM) and the Babbar Khalsa International (BKI) chief Wadhawa Singh was held in Rawalpindi in Pakistan during February 2009, where they planned terrorist attacks in Punjab during the Parliamentary elections scheduled to be held in the fourth and fifth phases on May 7 and May 13, according to Times of India. Sources in the agencies said the Pakistan-based terrorist outfits had planned to take help of local BKI cadres for logistical support. A similar meeting had also taken place in December 2008 when Pakistan-based terrorist outfits had planned to infiltrate their cadres through the fenced western border in Punjab and Rajasthan, sources added. Meanwhile, the Union Ministry of Home Affairs (MHA) has alerted the State to take adequate measures in coordination with central intelligence and security agencies to foil any such attempts. Agencies believed that Wadhawa Singh continues to be a vital link between terrorists in other countries and some radical elements in the Sikh community in Punjab. Wadhawa Singh, hiding in Pakistan, is one of the 40 most-wanted terrorists India has sought to be deported from Pakistan.

The charges of criminal conspiracy are applicable to all the accused. The charges include: committing terrorist acts with an intent to overawe the government, striking terror, waging war, organising and imparting training in Pakistan with the object of attacking major cities of India, destabilising the Indian government by engineering violence and through subversive activities, weakening India’s economic might, killing foreign nationals, adversely affecting Hindu-Muslim harmony, attacking territorial integrity by planning to capture Kashmir, smuggling firearms and explosives, exchanging maps of locations, aiding, abetting and facilitating terrorist acts, assisting criminal conspiracy and committing acts to further the objectives of criminal conspiracy.

Nikam on April 20 also presented evidence against Ansari and Sabahuddin. He said the writing on the map found on the person of deceased accused, Abu Ismail, and that of Ansari was found matching by experts. The map showed the position of the Chowpatty and Malabar Hill. It also had a mention of the Raj Bhavan. Nikam said Ansari attempted to hire a room at Badhwar Park in Cuffe Parade where the terrorists docked. He found accommodation at Patthe Bapurao Marg up to 5 km from Badhwar Park and from there, Fahim allegedly made detailed maps of the locations. He also bought a mobile phone in the fictitious name of Sahil Pawaskar. He also got himself admitted to the SoftPro computer institute opposite the Bombay Stock exchange, Nikam said. In his confession, Ajmal has stated that the LeT ‘commander’ Zaki-ur-Rehman Lakhvi asked the terrorists to destroy the maps on reaching target locations. The statement mentions the names of Ansari and Sabahuddin.
