The agency has requested the analysis of call detail records (CDRs) for 432 individuals to trace potential links to the violence. The court mandated that the state police immediately transfer all case files and records to the NIA, which has been granted authority to investigate all 12 cases. The Supreme Court emphasized that the attacks on judicial officers were "extremely grave" and ordered the state government to ensure the safety of legal personnel.#chief_secretary #west_bengal_government #supreme_court #national_investigation_agency #malda_incident
A.P. Police Arrest Three More Terror Suspects from Three States A day after three youths were detained by the NTR District police in Vijayawada for suspected terror links, the police teams from Andhra Pradesh arrested three additional suspects from different states on Wednesday. The arrests included Sayeeda Begum from Chanchalaguda in Hyderabad, Telangana; Abdul Salam from Ballari in Karnataka; and 19-year-old Zeeshan from Nai Sadak in Jodhpur, Rajasthan. This brings the total number of arrests in the terror link case to six. According to police sources, Zeeshan was identified as a key figure in the group after being tested by the handler and successfully passing the evaluation. He was then assigned the role of administrator, where he began influencing other youths. Zeeshan had been associated with the group for nearly two years, and further questioning is expected to uncover more connections within the network. The suspects were also linked to other ISIS-affiliated individuals already in custody. The A.P. police collaborated with the Sadar Bazaar team led by SHO Manak Ram to execute the arrests. The case is now likely to be handed over to the National Investigation Agency (NIA) for deeper inquiry, as stated by NTR Police Commissionerate in-charge Commissioner Sarvashresth Tripathi. Special teams have been dispatched to Delhi, West Bengal, Karnataka, Maharashtra, Bihar, Rajasthan, and other states to locate and arrest the remaining accused. The arrested individuals reportedly established the "Al-Malik Youth Islamic Committee (AMYIC)" in 2023 and operated a YouTube channel titled "Al-Malik Youth Union" to discuss their activities.#national_investigation_agency #ap_police #ntr_district_police #sadabazaar_team #ntr_police_commissionerate
Delhi court sentences Kashmiri separatist Asiya Andrabi to life imprisonment A Delhi court on March 24, 2026, sentenced Asiya Andrabi, a prominent Kashmiri separatist and leader of the Dukhtaran-e-Millat group, to life imprisonment for her role in an Unlawful Activities (Prevention) Act (UAPA) case. The verdict was announced by Additional Sessions Judge Chander Jit Singh after the conclusion of the sentencing arguments. Andrabi was convicted for her involvement in activities deemed terrorist under the UAPA, which includes charges related to membership in a terrorist organization and supporting such groups. The court also sentenced two of Andrabi’s associates, Sofi Fehmeeda and Nahida Nasreen, to 30 years in prison for their roles in the same case. The three women were previously convicted on January 14, 2026, under multiple charges, including UAPA Sections 20, 38, and 39, which address membership in terrorist organizations and support for such groups. Additionally, they were found guilty under the Indian Penal Code (IPC) for offenses such as promoting enmity between different groups (Section 153A), making imputations prejudicial to national integration (Section 153B), criminal conspiracy (Section 120B), and statements that incite public mischief (Section 505). A separate charge under Section 121A of the IPC, which pertains to conspiracy to commit offenses against the state, was also levied against them. The National Investigation Agency (NIA) had previously sought life imprisonment for Andrabi, arguing that her actions constituted a direct threat to national security. The agency emphasized that her alleged efforts to wage war against India necessitated the harshest penalty to deter future acts of conspiracy against the state.#national_investigation_agency #unlawful_activities_prevention_act #asiya_andrabi #delhi_court #dukhtaran_e_millat
Delhi court sentences Kashmiri separatist Asiya Andrabi to life in UAPA case; two associates jailed for 30 years A Delhi court on Tuesday sentenced Asiya Andrabi, a leader of the Dukhtaran-e-Millat separatist group, to life imprisonment under the Unlawful Activities (Prevention) Act (UAPA). Her two associates, Fehmeeda and Nasreen, received 30-year sentences in the same case. The conviction followed a trial that began in January 2024, during which Andrabi, Fehmeeda, and Nasreen were found guilty under Sections 20, 38, and 39 of the UAPA, as well as multiple provisions of the Indian Penal Code (IPC), including sections 153A, 153B, 120B, 505, and 121A. The National Investigation Agency (NIA) had sought life imprisonment for Andrabi, arguing that her activities constituted a "war against India" and that a severe penalty was necessary to deter future conspiracies against the state. During the trial, the court heard arguments on the appropriate quantum of punishment. Additional Sessions Judge Chander Jit Singh finalized the sentences after considering the legal and evidentiary framework of the case. According to an interrogation report accessed by The Times of India, Andrabi admitted to maintaining regular contact with former Pakistani Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif and his foreign policy adviser Sartaz Aziz. She also disclosed her interactions with officials at the Pakistan High Commission in Delhi, including former ISI chief Hamid Gul, and with UN-designated terrorists Hafiz Saeed and Syed Salahuddin. The report detailed Andrabi’s claims that she had written to Sharif in 2014, expressing frustration over Pakistan’s perceived inaction on the Kashmir issue. Sharif reportedly responded by stating, "We are doing our best.#national_investigation_agency #asiya_andrabi #delhi_court #dukhtaran_e_millat #nawaz_sharif
Two-Point Terror Threat: Why Pakistan is Targeting Khatu Shyam Temple and Monitoring Army Bases Indian intelligence agencies have uncovered a Pakistan-linked espionage network that aimed to map the Khatu Shyam Temple and install surveillance cameras near military installations. The plot, which involved two separate operations, was thwarted before it could be executed. The arrests of key suspects and the discovery of planned surveillance equipment have raised concerns about cross-border security threats. The investigation revealed that the network was designed to exploit the high foot traffic at the Khatu Shyam Temple, a major pilgrimage site in Rajasthan. Over a lakh devotees visit the temple on regular days, with numbers swelling to 2–3 lakh during festivals and up to 5 lakh on Ekadashi. This year’s Falgun Lakkhi Mela attracted approximately 30 lakh pilgrims, making it a prime target for potential attacks. The temple’s crowded environment, combined with relatively lighter security measures compared to other religious sites like Ayodhya or Varanasi, made it an attractive location for the perpetrators. The network’s ringleader, Sane Iram, operated under the guidance of a Pakistani handler and recruited individuals with Hindu names—Praveen, Raj, Shiva, and Ritik—as cover. These recruits were misled into believing they were performing routine tasks, while the group’s true objective was to gather intelligence. A total of 14 suspects, including Suhail, Sane Iram, and Azeem Rana, have been arrested. Rana’s phone contained images of the temple, further confirming the network’s focus.#intelligence_bureau #national_investigation_agency #khatu_shyam_temple #sane_iram #operation_sindoor
Al-Falah effect: Haryana to set up ATS units in Gurgaon and Panchkula Haryana is establishing a dedicated Anti-Terrorist Squad (ATS) following recent terror module unmaskings and espionage cases. The new unit, led by an inspector general of police (IGP), will focus on terror networks and radicalization, with two police stations planned. This move aims to improve coordination with central agencies and ensure a quicker, more unified response to threats, addressing past coordination issues. GURGAON: Months after the unmasking of a radicalised "white-coat" terror module linked to Al-Falah University in Faridabad and a parallel trail of espionage cases traced to Nuh and other districts, chief minister Nayab Singh Saini announced the setting up of an anti-terrorist squad (ATS) for the state. Presenting the budget, Saini said the ATS would function under an officer of IGP rank. Two ATS police stations will be set up—one in Gurgaon and the other in Panchkula—at a proposed cost of Rs 35.5 crore. He also proposed the induction of women commandos into the unit. According to sources, the decision gathered urgency after agencies exposed the Al-Falah-linked module and made arrests connected to the Nov 10 car blast near Delhi’s Red Fort that killed 15 people and injured several others. The module, police found, was being run by a group of doctors and allegedly headed by Dr Shahin Shaheed, who is believed to have been in contact with terrorists operating from foreign soil. As the probe widened, searches around the university’s vicinity led to the recovery of nearly 2,900kg of explosive and flammable material, along with weapons and components.#al_falah_university #dr_shahin_shaheed #national_investigation_agency #nidaan #natsgrid
