IT hub is a terrorist target
The suspected terrorist strike at IISc in Bangalore has brought alive the intelligence agencies' worst fears that the country's IT hub, along with vital economic installations, has emerged as the prime target for jehadi terror groups.The assault came just three days after a terrorist module confessed to a plan to attack IT companies along with other targets assigned to them by their Jaish-e-Mohammed commander. According to intelligence officials, Wednesday's incident in Bangalore prima facie appeared to be a terrorist attack. The surmise is derived from two reasonsâfirst, the choice of automatic weapon, either an AK-47 or AK-56, and the confessions made by terrorists arrested by security agencies during the year.
