The anti-terror agency of the state, Octopus, has got alerts from Mumbai and Delhi on the hawala connection of the Indian Mujahideen.
“We have noticed huge fund transfers to some suspects and their families from Saudi Arabia, UAE and the United Kingdom,” said a senior intelligence official.
“We are verifying them,” the official added.
He added that police was also checking the funding mechanism of organisations based in the Old City.
“We are checking fund transfers to organisations such as Darsgah Jihad O Shadhat, Therek Thafuz Shere-E-Islam, Saleem Mujahid Trust, other trusts, madrasas, and minority educational institution,” he said.
Investigations in Delhi had revealed that Indian Mujahideen terrorists had links with Dubai based hawala operators.
“Hyderabad was the hub of hundi business for years,” said the intelligence official.
“Several city youth based in Gulf countries are involved in hawala operations.” “Terrorists using hawala route for funds is nothing new,” said the commissioner of police, Mr B. Prasada Rao.
