Early Times Report
Srinagar, Apr 16: The State Investigation Agency (SIA), Kashmir, on Thursday filed a chargesheet against ten accused in a major terror conspiracy case involving a covert network dubbed as “Doctors Terror Module.” In a statement issued a SIA spokesman said, “The chargesheet was submitted in connection with an FIR registered at Police Station Nowgam, Srinagar, following an incident on October 19, 2025, when threatening posters surfaced in the area in the name of the banned outfit Jaish-e-Mohammad (JeM). The posters were intended to spread fear, disrupt public order, and challenge the sovereignty and territorial integrity of the country.”
“Investigations revealed that the poster campaign was part of a larger, well-planned conspiracy aimed at reviving the proscribed terror outfit Ansar Ghazwat-ul-Hind (AGuH). The accused had formed a highly clandestine module engaged in radicalisation, recruitment, and preparations for carrying out terror attacks,” the statement added.
It said, “The group deliberately used the name of JeM to create psychological impact while covertly working to rebuild AGuH, in an apparent attempt to mislead security agencies and conceal their real objectives. The probe further uncovered that the module included highly educated individuals, including doctors, who allegedly misused their professional access and institutional spaces for unlawful activities linked to Al-Falah Medical College/University. They were also involved in spreading extremist propaganda through digital platforms and procuring materials for fabricating explosives.”
“Investigators found that the group had identified Triacetone Triperoxide (TATP), a highly volatile explosive used in several global terror attacks, as a preferred material due to the ease of sourcing its components. The scale of accumulation of explosive materials and precursors indicated a high level of preparedness and potentially grave consequences,” the statement said.
The SIA stated that it has dismantled the entire network and gathered substantial evidence, including recoveries, digital forensics, scientific analysis, and witness accounts, establishing the roles and involvement of each accused.
Among those chargesheeted are Arif Nisar Dar alias Sahil, Yasir Ul Ashraf Bhat, Maqsood Ahmad Dar alias Shahid, Irfan Ahmad Wagay alias Owais, Zameer Ahmad Ahanger alias Mutlashi, Dr. Muzamil Shakeel Ganaie alias Musaib, Dr. Adeel Ahmad Rather alias Javaid, Dr. Shaheen Saeed, Tufail Ahmad Bhat, and Dr. Umar Un Nabi, who was killed in a Red Fort suicide attack.
The chargesheet has been filed before a competent court, and further investigation in the case is ongoing.
The SIA reiterated its commitment to dismantling terror networks and safeguarding national security, noting that the case highlights the evolving and sophisticated nature of such conspiracies, including the misuse of professional institutions and digital platforms. |
