BJP's weak policies responsible for terror attacks in India | NDA Govt had provided "protocol" to dreaded terrorist Azhar Masood in 1999 | | Early Times Report
Jammu, Jan 4: Notwithstanding claims of United Jehad Council (UJC), it is established during the initial investigation that Pathankot terror attack was masterminded by international terrorist Moulana Masood Azhar head of Jaish-e-Mohammad (JeM) based in Bahalwalpur area of Pakistan and Moulana Masood Azhar is result of the weak policies being adopted by the successive BJP Governments at the Centre. Moulana Masood Azhar was an unknown terrorist who was lodged in Kot-Bhalwal jail of Jammu but the BJP Government headed by Atal Behari Vajpayee had not only released him from the jail but also provided him highest protocol by sending Union Minister, Jaswant Singh to provide him highest respect before releasing him. Had the then BJP not approached weak approach during Kandhar hijack, terror attacks on Parliament, Mumbai and Pathankot would have been avoided. Credit goes to the self-styled "nationalist" BJP leaders that a international terrorist namely Moulana Masood Azhar has been emerged on world scene. Masood Azhar is a Pakistani terrorist leader and the founder of the militant group Jaish-e-Mohammed, based mainly in the Pakistan occupied Kashmir (PoK) Azhar confessed that in 1993 he traveled to Nairobi, Kenya to meet with leaders of al-Itihaad al-Islamiya, an al-Qaeda-aligned Somali group, who had requested money and recruits from Harkat-ul-Mujahideen (HuM). Indian intelligence officials believe that he made at least three trips to Somalia and that he also helped bring Yemeni mercenaries to Somalia. In early 1994, Azhar traveled to Srinagar to ease tensions between Harkat-ul-Ansar's feuding factions of Harkat-ul-Jihad-al-Islami and Harkat-ul-Mujahideen. India arrested him in February and imprisoned him for his terrorist activities with the groups. In 1995, foreign tourists were kidnapped in Jammu and Kashmir. The kidnappers, referring to themselves as Al-Faran, included the release of Masood Azhar among their demands. One of the hostages managed to escape but the rest were eventually killed. In December 1999, he was freed by the Indian Government in exchange for passengers on the hijacked Indian Airlines Flight 814 (IC814) that had eventually landed in Kandhar, Afghanistan, which at the time was Taliban controlled. The hijackers of IC814 were led by Masood Azhar's brother, Ibrahim Athar. His release from Kot Bhalwal jail, his younger brother Abdul Rauf Asghar had planned this attack. Once Masood Azhar was handed over to the hijackers, they fled to Pakistani territory. Pakistan had said the hijackers would be arrested if found, a difficult task given the length of the border and multitude of access points from Afghanistan. The Pakistani Government also previously indicated that Azhar would be allowed to return home since he did not face any charges there. |
