Laxmanpuri (UP) – The Anti-Terrorism Squad (ATS) of the Uttar Pradesh Police registered an FIR against 10 suspected terrorists on 11th October 2023. They have been identified as Adil ur Rahman Ashrafi, Abu Hurairah Ghazi, Sheikh Nazibul Haq, Mohammad Rashid, Kafiluddin, Azeem, Abdul Awwal, Abu Saleh, Abdul Gaffar and Abdullah Ghazi. All of them are accused of illegally soliciting money from abroad to build mosques in India, settling Rohingya and Bangladeshi citizens in India and carrying out anti-national activities.

The money, which was brought abroad and in many other parts of the country, was routed to Najibul Sheikh through hawala. Najibul Sheikh owns a cap and perfume shop near Darul Uloom Deoband in Saharanpur.

According to the ATS, Najibul, originally living in Bengal and temporarily in Deoband, had kept Bangladeshi citizen Atiq-ur-Rehman as his associate. Atiq-ur-Rehman had made India’s Aadhaar and PAN cards etc. with fake documents.

All of them were working as a gang that used to infiltrate Bangladeshis and Rohingya citizens into India and get their Indian papers made. These Bangladeshis were being settled in Delhi, Mumbai, Bengaluru and different parts of Northeast India.

The UP ATS recovered electronics and electrical equipment, mobiles, ATM cards, UAE currency, Indian cash, SIM cards, Aadhaar cards, madarasa cards, PAN cards and passports from all of them.

The third accused, Abu Hurairah, a resident of Bengal, said that he currently lived in the Chhatta Mosque of Deoband in Darul Uloom.

Editorial Perspective

At least now the Government should realise that the terrorists should be immediately executed to stop the increasing terrorism and the terrorist activities.
