The account from which messages relating to Areeb Majeed one of the four youth who had joined the Islamic State (IS) were being posted has been traced to the Ansar-ul-Tawhid (AuT), oneindia.com reports on October 3. A handle@spamci17 had put out a series of tweets claiming that Areeb Majeed had returned to India only to carry out a suicide attack on a Police Station. Indian Intelligence Bureau (IB) officials say that the account was being handled by a member of the Ansar-ul-Tawhid or the erstwhile Indian Mujahideen. According to IB report, AUT was started a year ago by Sultan Armar. However with conflicting reports of his death being posted on the IS media, the outfit is said to be handled now by brother Shafi Armar. There has been a pause in the recruitment process from India and hence messages on social media accounts are being posted to give a brighter side to the IS. The account from which the Areeb Majeed messages were tweeted has now been taken down. Intelligence Agencies say that it is the same person who continues to tweet under different handles. He has tweeted similar material in the past as well and the account has been taken down. With the IS's social media team, it is always a catch and mouse game. There are nearly 45,000 accounts sympathetic to the IS that are being run on the social media. Around 200 are related to India. These accounts disappear and then resurface. There is a need to constantly monitor these accounts. These accounts post propaganda material and also suggest routes and means on how to reach the IS camps, the officer also adds.

According to sources in Union Ministry of Home Affairs (UMHA) Saudi Arabia detained a key explosives supplier of the Indian Mujahideen (IM) and an absconding accused in the 2003 Haren Pandya murder case, identified as Zainul Abideen last month, Hindustan Times reports on October 8. The detention was made at the request of their Indian counterparts on the basis of supplied passport details. The verification process is on with Riyadh signaling it will not allow any anti-Indian activity on its soil. Abideen is accused of supplying explosives to IM operative Riyaz Bhatkal, who used them in the February 21, 2013 Hyderabad serial blasts and July 13, 2011 Mumbai serial blasts. On January 9, 2015, Bengaluru Police arrested three IM terrorists, including Syed Ismail Afaque, for a December 28, 2014 blast in the city. During interrogation, he named Abideen as one of the key accomplices. Abideen fled to Saudi Arabia after the serial blasts in 2013 and was working in a tech company. Authoritative sources said Saudi Arabian agencies are also verifying the antecedents of another Indian national, who has been under watch since January 2015. The accused is said to be Mufti Sufiyan, who had first fled to Karachi, Pakistan, after the murder of then Gujarat Home Minister Haren Pandya on March 26, 2003. He is said to have moved to Saudi Arabia. Sufiyan was a close associate of Karachi-based Lashkar-e-Taiba (LeT) Fake Indian Currency Note (FICN) dealer Rasool Khan alias Party and had links with now killed Shahid Bilal and Abdul Samad of LeT. Sufiyan’s main role has been radicalising Indian Muslim youth and was accused in the May 29, 2002 blasts in Ahmedabad. UMHA sources said Indian agencies are in touch with their Saudi counterparts to ensure the two terrorists are tried for their crimes in Indian courts.

The Anti-Terrorism Squad (ATS) investigating the Yavatmal case (Yavatmal District of Maharashtra) in which a 20-year-old youth allegedly stabbed a Police constable to “avenge beef ban” is probing if the arrested accused was a member of the newly-floated ‘electronic warfare technology group’ of the banned outfit, the Student Islamic Movement of India (SIMI), reports The Indian Express on October 23. Officials claim that the group was formed to facilitate creating an Indian wing “on the lines of al Qaeda”. Accused Abdul Malik is learnt to have told the ATS that he had been in touch with Shah Mudassir alias Talha (25), a businessman from Omerkhed in Maharashtra, and Shoeb Ahmed Khan alias Pusad Shoeb alias Tariq Bhai (24) of Hingoli District in Maharashtra. The two were arrested by the Hyderabad Police in October 2014. According to the Police, Malik, who might have been radicalised by the same “handler” or some other person who was in charge of the Maharashtra operations, had stabbed the constable to lodge his protest against the beef ban imposed by the State Government on September 25.
