A dossier on the Indian Mujahideen, which was prepared following its resurrection post the Batla House encounter, had termed the outfit as a "start to finish jihad factory."
Another terror attack and another new outfit. An unheard of outfit called as the Deccan Mujahideen has claimed responsibility for the deadly attacks in Mumbai. The IB however does not rule out groups like the SIMI or its version 2 the Indian Mujahideen to be operating in another name. The modus operandi is very similar to what the SIMI had done earlier. When the heat was stepped up on the outfit, it had revamped into the Indian Mujahideen.
Interoggation of seven suspected Indian Mujahideen operatives, arrested recently for their alleged roles in various terror attacks across India, reveals how the plan to bomb Pune's famous Dagdusheth Halwai temple fell flat.
In the wake of a final verdict on the Batla House encounter case, the National Investigation Agency and police teams from several states are all set to launch another manhunt for the head honchos of the Indian Mujahideen.
Police from every state have a different version to the working of the Indian Mujahideen, and we have seen arrests galore.

The case pertains to hatching a conspiracy, both on physical as well as cyberspace, for undertaking violent terrorist acts in Jammu and Kashmir and other parts of the country, by cadres of Pakistan-based proscribed terrorist organisations.
Some police encounters that stunned India.
Flawed execution by SIMI operatives resulted in many bombs, including the one under Narendra Modi's stage during his Hunkar rally in Patna in October 2013, not going off
IB sources say the arrests of top Indian Mujahideen operatives and trouble brewing within the terror group has led to the re-emergence of SIMI, who is planning a fiery attack. Vicky Nanjappa reports on this new terror threat.
Yasin Bhatkal is a prized catch, no doubt. What he tells is going to shape the understanding of how the Indian Mujahideen operated, and how far and well its network was spread. But, perhaps the cat was let out of the bag too soon, says Mahesh Vijapurkar.
The plan hinged on two critical assumptions: India would not be able to replenish supplies quickly to launch a counter-attack. India could not respond in enough strength to dislodge the Pakistanis. Both assumptions would be proved wrong due to the ferocity of the Indian response, reveals former RAW officer Tilak Devasher in his new book, Pakistan At The Helm.
