India takes up ULFA chief Paresh Barua's refuge with China

NEW DELHI: India has cautioned China that insurgent groups like ULFA was getting refuge and arms in their territory.

Responding to questions regarding recent intelligence reports on ULFA chief Paresh Barua being traced to China, the MEA spokesperson, Vishnu Prakash said, "The presence of Indian insurgent groups in the region and availability of arms to them, has figured in our discussions with our Chinese friends in the past." He added that MEA had no credible information at present.

Recent reports have quoted intelligence agencies as saying that they had traced Barua to Yunnan province in China when they traced his phone calls and found a perfect voice match. Barua opposes the government's reconciliation efforts. He was earlier in Bangladesh, but in recent years he moved to the border areas of Myanmar. The Indo-Myanmar security initiatives have pushed him to the China border, say intelligence sources.

Intelligence agencies have also said that China was responsible for giving arms to insurgent groups as well as improvised explosion devices (IEDs). Media reports gave details of Barua's hideout in a two-storeyed house in Riulli, Yunnan province.

http://indiatoday.intoday.in/video/ulfa-chief-paresh-barua-hiding-china/1/160290.htmlChina has been shielding top Indian fugitive -- United Liberation Front of Asom (ULFA) chief Paresh Barua, intelligence agencies have alerted the government.

The revelation comes days before Prime Minister Manmohan Singh's meeting with Chinese Premier Wen Jiabao in Bali on November 18 on the sidelines of the ASEAN and East Asia summits.

Barua has been trying hard to sabotage the government's attempts to bring peace to the North East.

Three days ago, Indian agencies monitoring a series of telephone conversations from across the Sino-Indian border found a perfect match on what seemed like Barua. The ULFA chief, who has been on India's most wanted list, was tracked to a hideout in a small town in China.

Barua's hideout is a two-storey house and the GPS coordinates were tracked to Riulli in the Yunnan province of China bordering Myanmar.

Barua's conversations on the Indian side of the border were tracked to some cell phone numbers in Assam and even to some of his contacts in Delhi and Eastern UP.

In one of the conversations Barua is heard instructing his secretary to contact those ULFA cadres who have surrendered extorting them to take up arms again.

Sources told Headlines Today that a classified report has been prepared for Prime Minister Manmohan Singh on the recent intercepts which corroborate the government's worry that Beijing might be fishing in troubled waters to prick India.
