Educated Indians being lured into extremism: 360 kg explosives seizure exposes Pakistan's brainwashing plot

New Delhi (The Uttam Hindu) : The arrest of Dr. Muzammil, a resident of Al Falah University in Faridabad, and the recovery of 360 kilograms of explosives from his room sent shockwaves across the country. In this case, a major terrorist plot was foiled in time by the joint action of the Jammu and Kashmir, Uttar Pradesh, and Faridabad police.

Former DGP Dr. SP Vaid said, "A major accident could have occurred, but the police's vigilance averted a major tragedy. The Faridabad Police, Jammu and Kashmir Police, and Uttar Pradesh Police have done a commendable job together. The public appreciates the efforts of these officers."

He said, "This case is extremely shocking because it involves educated and respected professionals like doctors involved in terrorism. This is a living example of how Pakistan is using religious brainwashing to trap even educated people. Whether someone has a PhD, a doctor, an engineer, or a company vice president, anyone can be trapped."

Dr. Vaid said that with the help of the Uttar Pradesh Police, the Jammu and Kashmir Police arrested Dr. Adil. During Adil's interrogation, the name of Dr. Muzammil emerged, who was arrested in Faridabad. The investigation so far has revealed that the 360 ​​kg of ammonium nitrate recovered was stored for making IEDs. An assault rifle and a pistol were also recovered. This is all part of a larger conspiracy. Now it is important to find out which vehicle brought this explosive, who helped, and how many such modules are active in the country.

Meanwhile, defense expert Captain Anil Gaur (retired) reported that on October 27, some posters were put up in the Kashmir Valley. Investigations revealed that these were put up by a man named Dr. Adil Ahmed. When he was arrested and his locker was opened, an AK-47 rifle was recovered. The investigation also revealed that he was a registered doctor at GMC Srinagar until October 2024. As the investigation progressed, the Jammu and Kashmir Police led Dr. Muzammil to the scene.

Former DGP Vikram Singh said, "This is the first time that highly educated professionals have been recruited into the terrorist network. This is a wake-up call for us. I congratulate the intelligence agencies and police, but I also want to say that it is now crucial to upgrade our intelligence gathering and field operations strategies with modern technology. Only then will we be able to effectively deal with such radicals.
