An Impending Terror Wave

The news channel "Times Now" has put out a report on a top secret advisory sent out by the Intelligence Bureau to the Mumbai Police warning of attacks on the city by LeT cadres that are ready to infiltrate into the country.

The last time the Mumbai Police ignored an IB warning, the entire city had to face the dire consequences in the form of 11/7 blasts that rocked Mumbai.

The advisory specifies :- --There are about 600 militants, who have been imparted navigational training by ISI & Pakistan Navy. These men are poised to infiltrate our coastlines and island territories. -- There is also a possibility of attempt by militants to kidnap VVIPs or aircrafts to demand the release of Afzal Guru (Convict of 2003 Parliament Attack case). The letter specifies that 2 persons from West Asia surveyed Mumbai and Goa for two months. A Sudanese national also stayed illegally in Pune with a fundamentalist organization. The warning issued by IB via an advisory - a copy of which is acquired by TIMES NOW -- specifies clearly that 'Mumbai' is on the terror radar once again. It is also learnt that 26th January is the day, when Lashkar plans to strike Mumbai. Main Targets -- Maharashtra's VVIPs, who are in danger of being kidnapped. -- Airports are on LeT's hit list. It is likely that planes could be hijacked and flown out of India. -- LeT militants surveyed terror targets in Mumbai and Goa. Reportedly, it is learnt that these 600 militants have been trained to handle large boats, lay land mines and explosives and are well equipped with navigational skills, concealment of explosives and surveillance methods. Allegedly, it is an orchaestrated effort to free -- Afzul Guru -- who faces a death sentence in the Parliament Attack case. Meanwhile, the IB has alleged that groundwork for this massive attack is already underway. Two Lashkar militants have surveyed possible terror targets in Mumbai and Goa for 2 months.
