Global Terror Infrastructure and Implications for India continues...
The price for heroin originating from the Golden Crescent ranges from Rs. 30 lakhs to Rs. 1 crore a kg. It is worth noting that Pakistani heroin and Colombian marijuana are the most demanded narcotic drugs in the US and the European countries. The volume of money these drugs generate in the West is mind boggling. It is because of the enormous money involved in the illicit drug trade that terrorists have established links with drug traffickers, smugglers and underworld dons to meet the expenses for “operation terrorism.”
The hypothesis that drug trafficking funds terrorist activities is based on certain facts:
1. The economy of narcotics-producing countries is dependent on the illegal drugs trade. Unless they have an alternative economy, the illicit narcotic drugs trade would continue irrespective of strict legislation.
2. Afghanistan is the biggest illicit opium producing (4,600 per annum, 1999 of the world’s total 6,000 metric tons) country in the world. Poppy cultivation is done in 18 out of the total 31 provinces of Afghanistan. If Taliban take over the central government as per US decision and the vaccum is not filled by India by boots on the ground of the Indian armed forces, then Taliban Pakistan terror will force multiply the terrorists to attack India. Event of June 27, 2021 in Jammu is a dress rehearsal of what is to come. Disremembering Jammu, Kashmir and Ladakh from the Indian mailand can be achieved by a Pakistan-China axis. If that happens due to the procrastination of Modi Government, Balkanisation of India is next.
3. Narcotic drugs are the most lucrative commodity that generate quick money without paper work. The business transaction is done in hard cash and no document is left as evidence for legal action.
4. The drug proceeds are laundered through numerous legal and illegal financial institutions and petty business enterprises.
5. Terrorism needs huge sums of money to carry out its operation. Since it is difficult to acquire that sum from official and legal sources, terrorists approach drug syndicates and underworld dons for cooperation.
