Vijayawada: The list of Indian Police Service (IPS) officials and Indian Administrative Service (IAS) officials with the recently arrested Mohammad Mosiruddin at Kolkata, a suspected Islamic State (IS) agent, revealed that those who were involved in the previous operations including in Hyderabad, are in threat from the IS. By studying information received from the agent, it was learnt that he gathered information about the officers to attack them.
The list, even though the Crime Investigative Department (CID) of West Bengal state, National Investigation Agency (NIA) and Intelligence Bureau (IB) officials are not revealing, exposes that the IS might have studied the administrative structure of India. Therefore, they might want to make a huge impact on Indian administrative system.
It is the time to brief up security given to the bureaucrats in both the states, particularly the IPS officers in Hyderabad, who are engaged in unravelling the recent terrorist operations so that any untoward incident can be neutralised, observed an officer of the NIA.
“The time has come to the state to provide security to those who are providing security to the state,” the officer observed.
The central investigation agencies also directed the state government to take adequate precautionary measures for IPS and IAS officials’ security at their offices, residential colonies and other sensitive areas.
There were a few check downs of IS agents and arrests were made in Telangana and Andhra Pradesh states and the officers involved in these operations must be provided security.
The suspected IS agent Mosiruddin, 25, alias Mosi alias Majnu, admitted his links with top ISIS leaders and the Jamaat-ul-Mujahideen Bangladesh (JMB) through emails, social networking sites and mobile phones. He was arrested in a joint operation by the three security agencies in Kolkata in West Bengal. He was a resident of Labhpur in Birbhum district and was working in Chennai.
