LASHKAR-E-OMAR
Lashkar-e-Omar is a new terrorist group reportedly founded in January 2002 and is a conglomerate of Harkat-ul-Jihad-i-Islami (HuJI), Lashkar-e-Jhangvi (LeJ) and Jaish-e-Mohammed (JeM) cadres. It was formed after the arrests of several front-ranking Islamist leaders in Pakistan following Musharraf's address to the nation on January 12, 2002, in which he committed himself to dismantling the structures and networks of terrorism based in his country.
HIZB-UL-MUJAHIDEEN (literal meaning: party of freedom fighters)
Of the terrorist outfits currently operating in Jammu and Kashmir, the Hizb-ul-Mujahideen (HM) is the one of the largest, with a cadre base drawn from indigenous and foreign sources. It is one of the most important terrorist outfits in terms of its effectiveness in perpetrating violence across the state at regular intervals. The HM is one of the 32 outfits proscribed under the Prevention of Terrorism Act, 2002.
HARKAT-UL-ANSAR (also known as Harkat-ul Mujahideen)
The Harkat-ul-Ansar was formed by the merger of two Pakistani groups, Harkat-ul-Jihad-al-Islami and Harkat-ul-Mujahedin, and led by Maulana Saadatullah Khan. The merger of these two political groups and its transformation into a militant group came about as part of the Afghan jihad. With a pan-Islamic ideology, the outfit strove to achieve the secession of Jammu and Kashmir from India through violent means and its eventual merger with Pakistan.
LASHKAR-E-TAIBA (literal meaning: army of the pure)
Formed in 1990 in the Kunar province of Afghanistan, the Lashkar-e-Taiba (also known as Jama'at-ud-Da'awa) is based in Muridke near Lahore in Pakistan and is headed by Hafiz Muhammad Saeed. Its first presence in Jammu and Kashmir was recorded in 1993 when 12 Pakistani and Afghan mercenaries infiltrated across the Line of Control in tandem with the Islami Inquilabi Mahaz, a terrorist outfit then active in the Poonch district of the state.
JAISH-E-MOHAMMAD MUJAHIDEEN-E-TANZEEM (JeM) (literal meaning: the army of Mohammad)
The Jaish-e-Mohammed (JeM) has been held responsible for the terrorist attack on parliament in New Delhi. The outfit has been banned by the government under provisions of the Prevention of Terrorism Act (POTA) on October 25, 2001. The US Secretary of State, Colin Powell, in a notification on December 26, 2001, designated the outfit as a foreign terrorist organistation. JeM is a relatively new terrorist outfit, compared to other major outfits active in Jammu and Kashmir.
AL BADR
Al Badr, currently an active terrorist outfit in Jammu and Kashmir, was proscribed by the government of India on April 1, 2002 under the Prevention of Terrorism Ordinance-2001, which became the Prevention of Terrorism Act on April 28, 2002. It is also designated as a Foreign Terrorist Organization in the United States. The Al Badr was formed in June 1998 with the professed goal of strengthening the 'Kashmiri freedom struggle' and to 'liberate' Jammu and Kashmir and merge it with Pakistan.
LASHKAR-E-JABBAR
The existence of Lashkar-e-Jabbar was first reported by the local media in Jammu and Kashmir in August 2001 following two incidents. In the first incident, two unidentified youth poured diluted acid on two school teachers in the Khanyar area of Srinagar on August 7. The next day, an armed terrorist threatened all students and teachers of a girls school in Srinagar of violence unless they adopt 'Islamic' dress codes.
TEHRIK-UL-MUJAHIDEEN
The Tehreek-ul-Mujahideen (TuM) was formed in June 1990 by Yunus Khan, a close associate of Mohammed Abdullah Tairi, chief of the Jammu and Kashmir Jamaat-e-Ahle-Hadith.
