Ayodhya (UP) – In January 2024, Ramlalla’s Idol will be consecrated in Ayodhya. Many dignitaries including Prime Minister Narendra Modi will participate in it. But in the Districts around Ayodhya, operatives of Pakistan’s intelligence agency ‘ISI’, terrorists and sleeper cells (local groups of fanatics who covertly support terrorists) are being arrested continuously.
1. After the Shriram Janmabhoomi verdict, one terrorist was arrested from Balrampur in August 2020; 4 terrorists were arrested from Lucknow in February-July and September 2021; 3 terrorists were arrested from Prayagraj, Rae Bareli and Bahraich in September 2021 and one terrorist was arrested from Gorakhpur in April 2022.
2. Now in 2023, the Uttar Pradesh State Anti-Terrorism Squad arrested Saddam on 2nd July, Mukeem on 1st August, Raees on 16th July and Salman and Armaan on 18th July from Gonda. They all are ISI operatives and terrorists. On 6th July, a person named Tariq was also arrested from Gorakhpur.
3. The preliminary investigation of the Anti-Terrorism Squad has revealed that the terrorists were instigated by the Babri demolition incident. All of these were trained as ‘sleeper cells’ and were to become active on receiving orders.
4. A senior official of the Uttar Pradesh State Anti-Terrorism Squad said that all of them were instigated by telling about Babri’s demolition. The aim of these people was to take revenge for the Babri demolition incident. Their presence near Ayodhya also implies some terrorist conspiracy.
5. The official further explained that after the demolition of Babri, security in Ayodhya is more vigilant than in other districts of Uttar Pradesh. Ayodhya could be a target of terrorist outfits, which are infiltrating the neighbouring Districts of Gonda, Balrampur, Bahraich, Barabanki, Gorakhpur and Ambedkar Nagar. ‘Sleeper cells’ of terrorist organisations are living here. Since 2019, ISI’s agents are continuously operating here.
6. According to the official, ISI and the terrorist organisation’s target is also the consecration ceremony to be held in Ayodhya in January 2024.
Terrorist Saddam Sheikh, a Hindu by origin, became a Muslim and carried on ‘Love Jihad’
Saddam Sheikh, a terrorist who was arrested from Lucknow, was found to have links with Al-Qaeda, Hizbul Mujahideen and Ansar Ghazwat-ul-Hind. His wife Rubina said, ‘Saddam was originally a Hindu. His name was Ranjit Singh. He drove a truck in Bengaluru. He betrayed me. Despite being a Muslim, he lied to me and married me. What can I expect from a person who betrays his country? I don’t trust him. He used to teach radical Islam to his children.
Another terrorist, Mohammad Raees, is an ISI operative and has provided confidential information to terrorists in Pakistan. The third terrorist named Mukeem is also an ISI operative. Mukeem’s mother told the media that he was a simple boy. Raees trapped him. Another terrorist named Salman Siddiqui was also an ISI operative. His family says he was trapped by Saddam and Raees. Salman Siddiqui’s house is 30 km away from Raees’ house in Tarabganj taluka. Salman was also arrested.
