Authorities in India, including the Special Task Force (STF), say a terror suspect identified as Hamim Mondal had involvement connected to a planned attack and was also tasked with surveillance. According to the STF, Mondal was instructed by handlers in Pakistan, including to monitor the movements of a chief minister. The STF also alleges that his association with the “Jantar Mantar” plot came to light through evidence tied to his personal digital activity, including social media posts. NDTV reports that investigators used information from the suspect’s girlfriend’s social media to expose aspects of the alleged plan. The case, as presented by the outlet, focuses on claims of cross-border direction of the suspect, the alleged objective of tracking a senior political figure’s movements, and how investigators connected online material to the broader conspiracy. The report does not provide additional details in the shared excerpts about charges, timelines, or whether any attack was carried out. The claims are attributed to the STF as part of an ongoing investigation.
