India Today
Mohiuddin Aurangzeb Alamgir, designated as a terrorist by the Indian government, had been involved in anti-India terror activities on behalf of JeM.
The government has designated Pakistani national Mohiuddin Aurangzeb Alamgir as a terrorist for his alleged involvement in the terror attack on a CRPF bus in Pulwama in Jammu and Kashmir in 2019.
On February 14, 2019, 40 CRPF officers were killed in an attack. Almost 15 days later, India carried out an air strike on terrorist camps inside Pakistan as a response.
The Union Home Ministry in a notification said, “Alamgir, 39, who used aliases Maktab Ameer, Mujahid Bhai and Muhammad Bhai, has been involved in the attack on the CRPF convoy in Pulwama,” the notification read.
The notification added, “He has been involved in anti-India terror activities on behalf of the Jaish-e-Mohammad (JeM) and looks after the outfit's fund collection activities from Pakistani nationals and routing the fund to Kashmir.”
Alamgir, the 33rd person declared a terrorist by the Indian government, has been involved in facilitating infiltration of Afghan cadres and coordinating terror attacks on Indian security forces in Jammu and Kashmir.
“Taking into account all his activities, Alamgir has been notified as a terrorist under the Unlawful Activities (Prevention) Act,” the ministry said.
