Intelligence agencies could be tantalizingly close to nabbing Indian Mujahideen's (IM) current India commander Tehsin Akhtar alias Monu, wanted for a series of terrorist strikes in major Indian cities.
Coming days after the arrest of IM's Pakistani bomb-maker Zia-ur-Rehman alias Waqas, the arrest of Monu, expected to materialize very soon, could wipe out the known leadership of IM in India. The main brains behind the IM, however, continue to reside in Pakistan under the patronage of the ISI and Lashkar chief Hafiz Saeed.
Sources within the security establishment said Tehsin had been tracked a few days back in Nepal and his current location is being verified.
However, there are some indications that Monu may have been detained even before his deputy Waqas was arrested on Saturday.
Sources in Delhi Police said Waqas's arrest itself was worked out with help from Tehsin. Sources said that after detention, Tehsin was made to send an internet message to Waqas to meet him at Ajmer in Rajasthan. As soon as Waqas arrived, he was arrested.
On Saturday Delhi police had said that Waqas's arrest was worked out on the basis of "human intelligence". Even in their press statement on Sunday, Delhi police had said, "On directions of Tehsin Akhtar alias Monu to come to Ajmer for an assignment, he (Waqas) came to Ajmer from where he was arrested."
