IB officer among 3 from Bengal killed in terror attack

April 24, 2025, 1:40 am

At least three people from West Bengal, including an Intelligence Bureau (IB) officer, were killed when Pakistan-based terrorists opened fire at tourists in Pahalgam’s Baisaran meadow on Tuesday, killing 26 people and injuring several others.
The three victims have been identified as Samir Guha, Bitan Adhikari and Manish Ranjan. While Guha and Adhikari were residents of Kolkata, Ranjan was an IB officer from Purulia district posted in Hyderabad.
Adhikari, a 40-year-old techie based in Florida, had come to Kolkata on vacation. He went to Kashmir on April 16 with wife Sohini and three-year-old son. They were supposed to return on the night of April 24.
“I even spoke with them on Tuesday morning. But then the horrific news came. He had asked me to join his family on the trip. I declined. I even advised them to avoid riding a pony in the hills,” his brother Dipak Adhikari told media persons.
“What will I tell Bitan’s son? He is just a kid. We are all shattered. What will Sohini do now? I can’t even imagine,” Dipak said.

West Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee spoke to Sohini Adhikari over the phone, while State Minister Arup Biswas rushed to Adhikari’s house in south Kolkata’s Baishnabghata and said the Chief Minister was making all arrangements to get the family back home as early as possible.
“One of the victims, Sri Bitan Adhikari, is from West Bengal. I had spoken to his wife over the phone. Though no words are enough to console her in this hour of grief, I have assured her that my government is taking all steps to bring back his mortal remains to his house at Kolkata,” Banerjee wrote on X late on Tuesday night.
On Wednesday, the Chief Minister posted: “All arrangements are being put up by our administration at Delhi Airport to help the family members of the victims and their onward journey to Kolkata. Flight is likely to arrive in Kolkata at 8.30 pm today. Our Resident Commissioner’s office in Delhi is in touch with the family members. I am personally overseeing and our senior officers are working hands on.

“A grim hour for all of us.
“Our victims are: Bitan Adhikari (of Baishnabghata, Kolkata), Samir Guha (Sakher Bazar, Kolkata), and Manish Ranjan (Jhalda, Purulia). No word is enough as condolence for their families, even while my heart goes out to them. We stand by the families.”
Samir Guha, too, had gone to Kashmir with his wife and daughter on a vacation on April 16. They were supposed to return on April 23. He was a Central Government employee.

Victims asked to recite a religious prayer before being shot in the head

April 23, 2025, 2:25 am

In one of the deadliest terror attacks in recent past, at least 27 people, majority of them non-local tourists, were killed by suspected Pakistan backed terrorists in Baisaran valley of Pahalgam, Anantnag district, around 90 km from capital Srinagar.
Although it is too early to conclusively identify the perpetrators, initial assessments by security agencies — based on the recovery of M4 rifles and AK-47 ammunition at the LoC — point to the involvement of Lashkar-e-Taiba operatives. The group is believed to have been operating under assumed identities, reportedly on the instructions of GHQ Rawalpindi, to evade international scrutiny.
The Jammu and Kashmir tourism site defines the popular tourist spot as ‘Mini Switzerland’ because of its long dark meadows resembling the ones in Switzerland and is only accessible by foot or horseback.
The site of the attack and the victims were selected to give a larger message that Kashmir was not ‘normal’ as the global audience believes.

The terror attack in which at least three perpetrators were involved was carried out around 3 PM and visuals that later emerged from the spot showed bodies of victims, all male, lying on the ground with their female members crying inconsolably even as locals were trying to help the injured and the terrorised.
Source said that till 7 PM, there was at least 27 fatalities, all male, including one member from the defence forces, and all the victims were asked to recite a religious prayer before being shot dead in the head, in an execution type killing.
Till the filing of the story, the government was yet to release the official number of the dead with the newly appointed Senior Superintendent of Police (SSP) of Anantnag Amritpal Singh, who had assumed charge on Monday, not available for a comment. Sources told the Sunday Guardian that police were still ascertaining details.
Official sources confirmed that the victims were mostly non-locals. Reports suggest the attackers identified the tourists by checking their IDs before opening fire. This is yet to be officially confirmed.
The attack occurred just hours after Prime Minister Narendra Modi departed for Saudi Arabia, and a day after U.S. Vice President J.D. Vance arrived in Delhi for a four-day visit. The timing has raised serious concerns about a possible symbolic motive behind the attack.
This incident is being seen as a major setback to the security apparatus that had, until now, successfully prevented such large-scale violence.

The incident also draws chilling parallels to a similar attack 25 years ago in March 2000, when 35 Sikh civilians were massacred in Chittisinghpura, Jammu and Kashmir. That attack had occurred during the visit of then-U.S. President Bill Clinton. At that time Prime Minister Modi was the BJP incharge of Jammu and Kashmir and was among the first political leaders to rush to the spot after being informed of the attack by an old journalist friend who was based in Srinagar.
Tuesday’s attack marks a significant escalation in violence against civilians in the region and stands as the deadliest assault on civilians in Jammu and Kashmir in recent years.
Prior to this, the most significant civilian-targeted attack occurred on 9 June 2024, in Reasi district, where terrorists ambushed a bus carrying Hindu pilgrims, killing nine and injuring 41.
Looking further back, the 2017 Amarnath Yatra attack resulted in the deaths of eight pilgrims. Before that the 2002 Qasim Nagar massacre, where 27 Hindu laborers were killed by terrorists was the one with the biggest casualties post the Chittisinghpura massacre.

The attack is likely to come as a massive dent to the tourism industry in the state which was witnessing increasing numbers in the last few years.
In 2024, the region welcomed around 3 million tourists, surpassing the previous high of 2.67 million in 2023 and marking a “golden era” for tourism. This growth follows a decade-high of 1.88 million visitors in 2022 and continues into 2025, with over 525,272 tourists recorded in just the first three months and one week, signaling a strong upward trend.
As soon as the news of the attack reached Delhi, PM Modi, who had just landed in Jeddah, directed Home Minister Amit Shah to rush to the spot.

Later, PM Modi wrote on X that “Those behind this heinous act will be brought to justice…they will not be spared! Their evil agenda will never succeed” suggesting that the government was looking at strategic options to retaliate, as it has done in the past including surgical strikes and air strikes on terror camps operating in Pakistan occupied Kashmir.
Last week, Pakistan army chief Asim Munir while speaking in Islamabad, had stated that the creation of Pakistan was needed while citing differences between Hindus and Muslims in “every possible aspect of life.”

France: Pakistani Man Sentenced To 30 Years For Terror Attack Near Charlie Hebdo Offices

January 24, 2025, 3:21 am

A Paris court on Thursday sentenced to 30 years in prison Zaheer Mahmood, a 29-year-old Pakistani man, for trying to kill two people outside the former offices of the satirical newspaper Charlie Hebdo in 2020. Mahmood entered France illegally in 2019 and committed the attack believing the newspaper was still based at the location.

The court was told that Mahmood was radicalized, with far-right Pakistani cleric Khadim Hussain Rizvi inciting violence by calling for the beheading of people he perceived as blasphemers. On September 25, 2020, Mahmood went to the former Charlie Hebdo address, armed with a meat cleaver and started attacking two employees of the Premieres Lignes news agency inside the offices.

Charlie Hebdo had long since moved locations since the massacre in 2015. That year two Al-Qaeda-related terrorists massacred 12 at the headquarters of the magazine, triggering debate after debate over the limits of freedom of speech in France in contrast to tolerance over religious faiths.

Mahmood was convicted of conspiracy to commit attempted murder and terrorism. In addition, a prohibition order was made on his return to France. Other than Mahmood, five Pakistani men, two of whom were minors at the time of the attack, were convicted of conspiracy to commit terrorist acts for inciting and abetting the attack. The sentences ranged between three to 12 years with prohibition orders not to return to France on the adults.

The six men were placed under France’s terror offenders list. However, Mahmood and all his co-accused never reacted after the verdict toward it. As for the case, the attendees who were considered victims of court judgment never wish to comment regarding the issue at hand.

Iran’s Nuclear Plant Burns, Terror Attack Suspected | WATCH VIDEO

October 25, 2024, 5:12 pm

A fire has erupted at Iran’s Karaj nuclear power plant, raising fears of another possible attack on Iran’s nuclear infrastructure. This incident follows close on the heels of a violent episode in Turkey that triggered Turkish airstrikes on suspected Kurdish sites in Syria and Iraq. The Karaj facility, a critical part of Iran’s nuclear program, had previously been attacked in 2022, an incident that Iranian authorities had attributed to external threats.

Unconfirmed Reports and Footage Surface

Initial reports, brought to light by an Iranian opposition group and circulated by Israeli media, reveal footage showing smoke billowing from the Karaj nuclear plant. However, the cause of the fire remains undetermined, and Iranian officials have yet to confirm details of any casualties. Israel has not claimed responsibility, though the incident has heightened concerns in light of the facility’s strategic significance and previous security breaches.

WATCH THE VIRAL VIDEO:

Videos are appearing on social media of a fire which falsely claims to be at a nuclear plant in the #Karaj suburb of #Tehran.

Instead, the fire appears to be at a diesel storage area adjacent to the gas/diesel-powered Montazer Ghaem Combined Cycle Power Plant at #Fardis, Karaj,… pic.twitter.com/fBb3t3GI9r

Regional Tensions Escalate Following Turkey Attack

This fire coincides with increased violence in Turkey, where an attack on Turkey’s aviation company, TUSAS, resulted in the deaths of five individuals and injuries to 14 others. Turkish forces quickly responded, neutralizing the assailants before initiating a round of airstrikes targeting Kurdish militant positions across Syria and Iraq. Turkey’s National Intelligence Organisation spearheaded the operations, employing drones to hit facilities associated with the Kurdistan Workers’ Party (PKK) and other allied groups.

Recurring Attacks on Karaj Nuclear Plant

This is not the first time the Karaj nuclear facility has come under threat. A 2022 incident, widely blamed on Israel, prompted Iranian authorities to move sensitive equipment, including advanced centrifuges, to a secure location. As a key asset in Iran’s controversial nuclear development agenda, the Karaj site remains a focal point of international attention and a flashpoint in escalating regional tensions. The latest incident underscores the precarious balance of power in the region as Iran’s nuclear ambitions continue to face scrutiny and opposition.

October 22, 2024, 7:27 pm

Terror Attack In Jammu And Kashmir Claims Lives Of Doctor And 5 Migrant Workers

October 20, 2024, 10:54 pm

A doctor and five migrant workers lost their lives in a terrorist attack at a construction site in Gagangir, located in Jammu and Kashmir’s Ganderbal district, according to official sources on Sunday. The death toll may rise, as many injured individuals—both local and non-local—are being treated at hospitals. Chief Minister Omar Abdullah condemned the assault on non-local laborers, labeling it a “dastardly and cowardly” act.

He noted that the casualty count from the Gagangir incident is not definitive due to the number of injured workers, with some being transferred to SKIMS in Srinagar for serious injuries. The attack occurred at a camp for laborers from a private company who were working on an under-construction tunnel in the Gund area. Police and army forces have cordoned off the site to pursue the attackers.

In a statement on X, the Jammu and Kashmir Police reported the incident and confirmed that security forces have surrounded the area. Union Minister Nitin Gadkari also denounced the “horrific” attack, stating that the innocent laborers were contributing to a significant infrastructure project. He expressed his condolences to the families of the victims and wished a swift recovery for the injured.

Pakistan Faces Terrorism Crisis, Echoes India’s Struggles

July 19, 2024, 6:40 pm

Pakistan is grappling with a severe terrorism crisis following a recent attack on the Bannu Cantonment, which resulted in the deaths of eight military personnel and numerous injuries. The assault was attributed to the Hafiz Gul Bahadur Group, based in Afghanistan, and comes amid rising violence from the Tehreek-i-Taliban Pakistan (TTP). In response, Pakistan has demanded “immediate, robust, and effective action” from the interim Afghan government against these terror groups, summoning the deputy head of mission of the Afghan Embassy in Islamabad for a formal protest.

Islamabad’s stance highlights the deepening concerns over the presence of terrorist groups within Afghanistan, which Pakistan claims pose a significant threat to its national security. This latest incident has reignited fears over regional peace and security, with Pakistan reiterating its calls for Kabul to curb terrorist activities on its soil.

Ironically, Pakistan’s reaction mirrors its longstanding approach to similar situations involving India. Historically, Pakistan has consistently denied or downplayed allegations of terrorism and security concerns raised by India. For years, India has issued numerous demarches and provided dossiers to Pakistan, detailing evidence of terrorist activities linked to Pakistani-based groups such as Lashkar-e-Taiba (LeT) and Jaish-e-Mohammed (JeM). These documents have often included evidence from major attacks, such as the 2008 Mumbai attacks, the 2016 Pathankot Air Base attack, and the 2019 Pulwama attack.

Despite these repeated efforts, Pakistan has frequently disputed or rejected the evidence presented by India, leading to ongoing diplomatic friction and unresolved issues regarding terrorism and ceasefire violations along the Line of Control (LoC) in Jammu and Kashmir.

As Pakistan faces its own terrorism challenges, the parallel with India’s experience underscores a cycle of denial and diplomatic contention over the issue of terrorism. While Pakistan now seeks urgent action from Afghanistan, it remains to be seen if this will lead to a broader change in its approach towards international terrorism and the complex dynamics of regional security.
