Three top Lashkar-e-Toiba (LeT) militants, including Zafarullah Parray, a Territorial Army trooper who had deserted his post along with three weapons on March 8, 2009, were shot dead by the Army, Police and Central Reserve Police Force (CRPF) in a joint operation at Kulhand in the Doda District on July 1, Daily Excelsior reported. Zafarullah Parray was being searched by Army and Police since he had deserted his unit along with weapons and joined the LeT outfit. The Senior Superintendent of Police, Prabhat Singh, said the house of one Irshad Ahmed was surrounded by Security Forces in the early hours after developing specific information that three to four LeT militants, including Zafarullah, had taken shelter there. However, on observing the SFs movement, the militants deserted the house and fled towards Kulhand, about 18 kms from Doda. The militants were chased and in the consequent encounter, all three militants were killed. A Police constable, Rakesh Kumar, sustained injuries in the incident. Besides Zafarullah, the two others have been identified as Mushtaq Ahmed alias Abu Harare, a resident of Kirthwan, and Billal Ahmad, a resident of Gurmul. Recoveries made from the possession of slain militants include two UBGLs, one rifle and a large quantity of ammunition and explosives. Police also detained Irshad Ahmed and some of his family members for giving shelter to the Lashkar militants.

The Intelligence Bureau, in an alert, warned that at least seven places in Maharashtra - including a reputed bank in Mumbai and an important railway junction in Navi Mumbai - could be attacked, reports Times of India. The alert, dated July 8, also contains photographs of the seven targets. Officials said the alert was issued after a terror suspect was detained in Jammu and Kashmir and the Police recovered photographs of targets in Maharashtra from him. The colour pictures were reportedly sent to security agencies in Maharashtra by e-mail. “The photographs are genuine. They include the picture of a reputed bank near the Bombay high court, two railway stations in Mumbai and a railway station in Navi Mumbai,’’ an official said, adding that the Navi Mumbai station was not properly covered “security-wise’’. However, the alert did not specify the number of terrorists planning to enter Maharashtra and did not provide any information about possible local involvement. The fresh alert, officials said, also mentioned four dates on which the terrorists planned to carry out the strikes. This is the second alert in two weeks by central intelligence agencies. The first was issued on June 24—it said a 26/11-like terrorist attack could be repeated again via the sea route by the Pakistan-based Lashkar-e-Toiba (LeT). Meanwhile, Union Home Minister P. Chidambaram had warned that Pakistan-based terrorists could launch another sea-borne attack despite the bad weather and choppy seas. While the minister did not give details, sources in the central intelligence agencies described the threat as specific and the most serious in two years. A massive coastal patrol was launched following that alert.

Police on July 9 arrested a hawala operator of the Lashkar-e-Toiba (LeT) outfit and recovered INR 290000 worth hawala money from his possession at Banihal in the Ramban District, Daily Excelsior reported. He has been identified as Roshan Din, a resident of Cherwari in Banihal. Superintendent of Police (Ramban), Mubassir Latifi, said Police intercepted a vehicle at Banihal, which was on way from Srinagar to Ramban, and arrested Roshan Din following specific information developed about him that he was carrying hawala money. Preliminary questioning of Roshan Din has reportedly revealed that he was given the money by an unidentified militant at Anantnag Bus Stand for delivering it to the LeT ‘district commander’ for Banihal, Abu Mussa. Mussa was presently operating from the forests of Banihal and was a front ranking ‘commander’ of the LeT outfit for the last couple of years.

There was no evidence of local help for the terrorists involved in the November 26, 2008 terrorist attacks and a series of calls made by the Lashkar-e-Toiba (LeT) handlers prior to the attacks was only to keep the internet telephony account active, a senior Police official said on July 12, reports Times of India.

"We have verified every call that was made to India including the random ones and there was no evidence of local support found," Maria added.

A 36-page dossier handed over by Pakistan has for the first time admitted that the Lashkar-e-Toiba (LeT) carried out the November 26, 2008 Mumbai attacks, according to Times Now. The dossier terming Lashkar operations chief Zaki-ur-Rehman Lakhvi as the mastermind and admitting the Pakistan nationality of Ajmal Amir Kasab along with some others is said to have prompted India to be more accommodating with Pakistan at the NAM Summit in Sharm-el-Sheikh in Egypt. Pakistan has reportedly given details on each of the accused, which includes Zarar Shah, who has been identified as the person in-charge of the communications, and there are also details of proclaimed offenders like Ajmal Kasab. The LeT has been referred to as a defunct organisation with no links to other outfits in Pakistan.

The Kerala Police on July 22 arrested a suspected terrorist, identified as Mohammed Abdul Haleem, for his involvement in the July 2008 Bangalore serial bomb blasts and a series of low-intensity blasts in Kerala in the last decade, reports Times of India. Haleem was arrested from Kannur and brought to Kochi where he was placed under arrest. Police said he was associated with the ultra-Islamic Noorish Tariquat based in Hyderabad and received terror training there. Meanwhile, the Kochi Police commissioner Manoj Abraham said that the vehicle used to plant bombs in Bangalore was the one stolen by Haleem from Aluva in Ernakulam. Though he was arrested earlier also in connection with the theft, Haleem duped the Police then by stating that it was done to raise money for his wife’s medical treatment. A former cadre of the People’s Democratic Party (PDP) founded by Abdul Nasser Madani, Haleem was an aide of Tadiyantavide Nasir, a key Lashkar-e-Toiba (LeT) militant wanted for the Bangalore bomb blasts case. Police also established his links with Abdul Sattar, another accused in the case.

The Minister of State for External Affairs, Preneet Kaur, said on July 22 that Pakistan had not responded to its consistent demand for handing over underworld gangster Dawood Ibrahim and other fugitives, reports The Hindu. “We have consistently asked Pakistan to hand over Ibrahim and others, whom we believe are taking shelter there, to us. The demand has been made in 2004, 2005, 2006 and 2007. But, unfortunately there has been no response from Pakistan so far,” Preneet Kaur told the Lok Sabha (Lower House of Parliament) during Question Hour. She said the issue was also brought to the UN Security Council which has declared the Lashkar-e-Toiba (LeT) and Jama'at-ud-Da'awa as terrorist outfits having links with Dawood Ibrahim.

Special judge M. L. Tahaliyani ruled on July 23 that the confessional statement given by Pakistani national and the lone arrested Lashkar-e-Toiba (LeT) militant Ajmal Kasab would stay on the records though the trial against him would continue, according to The Hindu. On July 20, Kasab had pleaded guilty and demanded that he should be punished immediately. Special Prosecutor Ujjwal Nikam, however, argued that Kasab’s statement was only ‘‘partially true’’ and so the prosecution wanted to continue examining witnesses to establish all the 86 charges against him. Tahaliyani, while passing the order, observed that Kasab had given a ‘‘voluntary confession’’ and his statement could not be removed from the records. ‘‘The trial will proceed. The confession will stay though I will not make any comment on its evidence value at this stage,’’ the Judge added.

A special Prevention of Terrorism Act (POTA) court on July 27 convicted three persons for their involvement in the bomb blasts at the Gateway of India and the Zaveri Bazaar in Mumbai on August 25, 2003, which killed 52 persons and injured 184, reports The Hindu. Judge M.R. Puranik announced that Haneef Sayyed (46) and his wife Fahmeeda (43) from Marol and Ashrat Ansari (32) from Juhu Galli would be sentenced on August 4. The three were also held guilty of carrying out a bomb blast in a bus at Ghatkopar on July 28, 2003, which killed two people and injured 60, and of planting a bomb, which however did not explode, in a bus in the Santa Cruz Electronics Export Processing Zone. They were convicted under Sections 302 (murder), 307 (attempt to murder), 427 (damaging property) and 120B (criminal conspiracy) of the Indian Penal Code. They were also convicted under Sections 3 (damaging property) and 4 (damaging property by fire or explosive) of the Prevention of Damage to Public Property Act; Sections 3 (causing an explosion to endanger life) and 4 (making an explosive to endanger life) of the Explosive Substances Act; and Sections 5 and 9B (licence for the use of explosives) of the Explosives Act. The mastermind of the blasts, who claimed to be a Lashkar-e-Toiba (LeT) operative, had turned approver. The Police claimed that Nasir Ahmed, one of the conspirators, was killed in an encounter in September 2003. However, the couple and Ashrat Ansari were acquitted under Sections 5 and 6 (making or possessing explosives under suspicious circumstances) of the Explosive Substances Act. "These are very minor offences," said Nikam. The accused were LeT operatives and had committed serious offences. "We will (therefore) argue for the highest punishment." He added Earlier, investigations revealed that the bomb blasts were carried out by cadres of the Gujarat Muslim Revenge Force to avenge the communal riots in Gujarat in 2002. Two other accused — Ansari Ladoowala and Hasan Batterywala — were discharged from the case after a POTA Review Committee gave them a clean chit in 2005. The 16-year-old daughter of Sayyed and Fahmeeda was also an accused, but was later acquitted.
