French Foreign Minister Jean-Marc Ayrault on January 12 pressed for “decisive action” against Pakistan-based terror groups such as the Lashkar-e-Taiba (LeT), Jaish-e-Mohammed (JeM) and Hizb-ul-Mujahideen (HuM), which “are targeting” India, reports The Hindu . France vowed to work with New Delhi to get JeM ‘chief’ Masood Azhar proscribed by the United Nations Security Council (UNSC).French Foreign Minister Jean-Marc Ayrault also said: “The international community’s determination to combat terrorism must be the same everywhere, regardless of the threat.In addition, on the cross-Line of Control (LoC) surgical strikes carried out by India in September 2016 after an attack on the Uri Army camp in the state of Jammu and Kashmir, Mr. Ayrault, said that a country had a “right to defend itself” in the wake of such threats.On the front of counter-terrorism activities, he said, France and India hold “constant and very operational exchanges” on the terrorist threat. “We have a bilateral working group that brings together all the players concerned over counter-terrorism, and, among others, cooperation with regard to investigations and between our respective intervention units, the GIGN [Groupe d'intervention de la Gendarmerie nationale] from the French side, and the National Security Guards [NSG] from the Indian side.

A special National Investigation Agency court (NIA) in New Delhi on January 13, levelled charges against Zabiuddin Ansari alias Abu Jundal in a matter related to conspiring terror attacks in various parts of India, reports news.yahoo.com. The charges against Jundal, who is also the convict in the Aurangabad arms haul case, have been framed under the Indian Penal Code (IPC) Section 153 A and other sections of Unlawful Activities Prevention Act (UAPA).The trial on the same will begin from January 31, 2017.A case was registered on June 8, 2012 under section 18 of UAPA against Jundal and his associates, who happened to be the members of Lashkar-e-Taiba (LeT).

Anti-terror intelligence agencies have found instances of medicines from India landing up with the Islamic State (IS), Deccan Chronicle reports on January 16. The agencies strongly suspect that medicines supplied to the Gulf countries were ending up in Syria and Iraq for the use of the terror group.At the recent All-India Police Science Congress in Kerala, a top IPS official of the Intelligence Bureau (IB) noted during a discussion on the IS: “A total of 70 incidents of violence have been reported outside the area of ISIS control in 20 countries including several lone wolf attacks. The targets have been remarkably similar to the ones chosen by other terror outfits targeting India, whether it is the Indian Mujahideen or the Lashkar-e-Tayyaba.” The officer said, “There have been loose ISIS motivated or inspired groups in Hyderabad (one led by one Yazdani), one in Roorkee and lone wolves like in Parbhani. Instances of supply of logistics have come to our notice, particularly in the form of supply of medicines.”According to top IB sources, around 300 individuals in India are on the radar of various Police forces and central agencies for their “proclivity towards the ISIS cause”.So far, around 100 persons have tried to travel to join IS and around 67 have reached the area of operation of the extremist group. Agencies have arrested about 60 persons, including some in Telangana state for linkages to the IS.Explaining the magnitude of the problem, an IB officer said, “Over 70 lakh Indians work in the Gulf and West Asia and remain vulnerable to radical propaganda.” Several expats from Hyderabad based in the United Arab Emirates (UAE) and Saudi Arabia have joined the IS, as has one person from Machilipatnam in Andhra Pradesh who was based in Kuwait. Analysis by the police has revealed that recent IS recruits from India were young - about 90 per cent in the 18-33 age group. More specifically, half the recruits from India were in the 23-28 age group. About 70 per cent had a technical background and 50 per cent were graduates.
