PFI is funding terrorist activities in India through hawala network : ED

PFI has over 13,000 members based in Singapore and Gulf countries

New Delhi – The Enforcement Directorate (ED) has disclosed that members of the banned terrorist organisation, Popular Front of India (PFI) have been funnelling funds to India through hawala channels to carry out terrorist activities. PFI has over 13,000 members in Singapore and Gulf countries, tasked with raising these funds.

In September 2022, the National Investigation Agency (NIA) and the ED conducted nationwide raids on PFI-linked locations, resulting in the arrest of several leaders under the Unlawful Activities (Prevention) Act (UAPA). Following these raids, on 28thSeptember, 2022, the Union Government officially banned the PFI. Since then, the ED has continued an in-depth investigation, and the aforementioned findings are part of this ongoing probe.

PFI’s real intention is to create an Islamic movement in India through Jihad

Investigations have revealed that PFI’s real objective differs from what is stated in its constitution. Although the organisation portrays itself as a social group, its underlying goal is to establish an Islamic movement in India through Jihad. (If anyone in India talks about ‘Hindu Rashtra’, Congress, pseudo-liberals, and communists quickly raise concerns of threats to Muslims. Why are they silent now on PFI’s actions ? – Editor) While PFI claimed it would pursue its objectives through peaceful, non-violent means, the investigation uncovered evidence that under the guise of physical training camps, PFI members have been engaging in violent practices, including punching, kicking, knife fighting, and baton attacks.

None of PFI’s locations are registered in its name

Not a single PFI location in the country is registered under the organisation’s name. (Know PFI’s cunningness – Editor) The locations used for physical training camps, too, were registered under proxy owners. In 2013, during a physical training camp in Kerala’s Kannur District, PFI members were trained in the use of explosives and violent weapons. The camp’s objective was to incite hatred between different religions and encourage PFI members to engage in terrorist activities.

Editorial Perspectives

  • The fact that foreign money is sent to conduct terrorist activities in India, shows that foreign powers are trying to destabilize India. Who are these forces ? India should investigate and expose them.
  • Also the beneficiaries of this funding should be exposed and they should be imprisoned for life.
