NEW DELHI, May 19
India's two premier spy arms, Intelligence Bureau (IB) and Research and Analysis Wing (RAW), anticipate a 'big operation' against police and security agencies as well as "hired agents" of India in the two sensitive districts of Jammu region--Doda and Rajouri. According to inputs available with the two agencies, "undetected" entry of a number of jihadis belonging to the dreaded terrorist outfit, Jaish-e-Muhammad (JeM) into the two districts has taken place in recent times.
Selection of Doda and Rajouri districts by the JeM for anti-India activities assumes importance in the context of the presence of Muslim majority there. The JeM leadership, based in Pakistan, has, under the re-structured strategy, programmed to instill greater fear than before among non-Muslims in the two districts in the first stage and, later on, create conditions for the spread of "militant Islam" in Hindu habitations. The JeM leadership (read Masood Azhar) is for "all Muslim" districts of Rajouri, Doda and Poonch in the Jamm region.
The IB and the RAW as well as the Jammu and Kashmir government's CID "specialists" have already confirmed the presence of "some hideouts" of Jais-e-Muhamad in the Kashmir Valley. And with his aim of wresting Kashmir from the kaafir (infidel) Masood Azhar, chief of Jaish-e-Muhammad, has warned the government of India that it should "prepare for the worst" if it continued its "brutal" activities in "Muslim Kashmir".
The warning, significantly, is contained in his anti-India outbursts that are now available in audio-cassettes. Clearly, his warning has the same malice that he once spread in mosque after mosque in the Kashmir valley. Masood Azhar has declared that the "liberation of Kashmir" is not the only item on his agenda; the rebuilding of the Babri Masjid at its original place in Ayodhya in Uttar Pradesh "is equally important". And his ultimatum: "We will do it by hook or by crook because we now know where India's lifeline is".
Masood Azhar, who claims he did not see sunlight for more than 12 months, now thinks nothing of asking for the moon. He wants Islamabad to end all contacts with New Delhi until a plebiscite is held in Kashmir. Azhar's taped speech contains other demands as well: immediate release of prisoners, withdrawal of Indian forces from the 'hot spot' and settlement of the Kashmir dispute in accordance with the wishes of the Kashmiri Muslims.
Azhar exudes confidence: "The future of the jihad in the Valley is bright". He has emphasized that he will continue to spew venom against India. Following his release by the government of India, in exchange for the freedom of the passengers on Indian Airlines flight 814 at Kandhar in Afghanistan, Masood Azhar is thirsting for blood again. Azhar has reiterated: "If five people can hijack a plane and get us released, they can cut India's lifeline too". His claim that Kashmiri militants are getting help from Indians is not off the mark. It was actually an Indian who revealed the extent of the operations that the ISI, Masood's ally in the anti-India campaign, had launched against Nepal.
Not long ago, the Mumbai Police recovered a cache of arms and ammunition from five persons. The entire haul had been smuggled in from Nepal through West Bengal. Two Pakistanis, Mohammed Rehman and Mohammed Iqbal Malik, of the Al Faran faction of the erstwhile Harkat-ul-Ansar, and a Nepali, Gopal Bahadur, were arrested along with two Indians, Mushtaq Ahmed and Abdul Latif.
The Mumbai Police have become hyper-active. They have cast their net far and wide for the ISI operatives who have set up base in the country's commercial capital, Mumbai. Gone are the days when the CID and the Crime Branch too were doing a splendid job earning laurels for the Mumbai Police and comparisons with Scotland Yard. But then terrorism had not been on the city police beat, Maharashtra Chief Minister, Mr Vilasrao Deshmukh, argued. According to Deshmukh, that the scenario changed when secessionism reared its head in Punjab and Jammu and Kashmir. Its tentacles soon spread to Mumbai. "We have alerted the police and other agencies and directed them to sternly deal with anti-socials and anti-nationals", he has said.
Even the best detectives find it difficult to identify the genuine job-seekers from the extremists arriving with a wave of migrants in Mumbai. The Shiv Sena leadership has cried itself hoarse about the hostile elements among the migrants from Bangladesh and 'visitors' from Pakistan who overstayed or went underground. The Pakistan connection, EARLY TIMES was also officially informed, has taken on a dangerous hue ever since don Dawood Ibrahim established base in Karachi. Believed to be remote-controlled by the ISI, his gang is being used to recruit sympathisers to the ISI's anti-India crusade.
