Security tightened along international border
By our correspondent
Mizzima News (www.mizzima.com)
Guwahati, Oct. 21: The security forces engaged in counter insurgency
operations have stepped up vigilance along the international border in
view of spurting activities of Muslim fundamentalists. After the US
attack on Afghanistan, a new militant group- Islamic Security Force of
India (ISFI) - has expanded its activities in Assam, Tripura and Manipur
with active support from the neighboring countries posing a serious
threat to the region.
The activities of the militant group came to light following recovery of
vital documents from a remote area along the Indo-Bhutan border .The
ISFI was constituted in Mumbai last year with the help of Al-Qaeda
headed by Osama Bin Laden and now it has expanded the network in the
North East India with active support of a section of Muslim to launch a
Jehad against the Indian government. What is more alarming is that the
militant group has close links with the Hizbul Mujahideen, Laskar
-E-Toiba, and Jammu & Kashmir Liberation Front (JKLF) through which it
has been abetting terrorism in the country.
All these militant groups have been providing financial assistance and
arms and ammunition to the ISFI for expanding ISLAMISM in the region
.The self- styled General Secretary of the outfit Mustafa Mutwaqil is
maintaining a cordial relation with the fundamentalist of both
Bangladesh and Pakistan to launch a Jehad against the Indian government,
the evidence of which was found in the documents recovered from the area
recently.
It is pertinent to mention that the North East region has been a hotbed
of the Muslim Fundamentalists due to its population structure, which has
become a matter of concern. Taking advantage of porous international
border, the Muslim fundamentalists have been spurring militancy leading
to a major problem for the security forces.
Highly placed security forces sources monitoring the situation in the
North East admitted that it would create a serious problem if timely
actions are not initiated. They however said that some pockets of the
region have been identified as sensitive in the context of stepped up
activities of the militant groups and more companies have been deployed
accordingly to foil the evil design of the militant groups. "We have
divided the region into four parts in view of the growing activities of
the Muslim Fundamentalists in the aftermath of the ongoing war in
Afghanistan?, sources said. Moreover, security sources further revealed
that the ISFI has started recruiting Muslim youths from the Char areas
taking advantage of their illiteracy. Meanwhile the Unified Command
Operations, which have been going on for the last 7 years, have decided
to review their operations to contain the activities of the
fundamentalists.
