Terrorist 'Uncle' Distributed Fake Currency



The National Investigation Agency (NIA) has disclosed shocking details in a recent chargesheet, accusing the designated individual terrorist 'Uncle,' also known as Javed Patel, of masterminding a sinister plot to flood India with counterfeit currency.


As per a report by ANI, Patel and his accomplices were involved in the acquiring and distributing of high-quality counterfeit Indian currency notes (FICNs). The primary objective behind these actions was to damage the monetary stability of India.



A supplementary charge sheet was officially lodged before a specialised court in Mumbai. 


A total of four individuals, one of whom is the designated terrorist 'Uncle,' who goes by the aliases Javed Patel and Javed Chikna. This supplementary charge sheet is associated with the Thane fake currency case.


In the legal proceedings initiated by the NIA, aside from Javed Patel, three other individuals have been named as accused. They are Riyaz Shikilkar, Mohammad Fayaaz Shikilkar, and Nasir Chaudhari, all of whom reside in Mumbai. 



NIA reveals that 'Uncle' circulated high-quality fake currency to harm India's monetary stability.

Mohammad Fayaaz Shikilkar has also been charged separately under the Arms Act in addition to the charges brought against him under the Indian Penal Code (IPC) and the Unlawful Activities (Prevention) Act.


The Thane police took action in this matter by filing charges against three individuals in April last year. 


The case was initially registered after the discovery of 149 counterfeit Indian currency notes, each valued at Rs 2,000, which were of high quality. These notes were seized from one of the accused individuals, namely Riyaz Shikilkar, prompting the initial registration of the case.


After the case was handed over to the NIA, they subsequently took charge of the investigation. 


In May 2023, the NIA arrested Mohammad Fayaaz on charges related to the unlawful possession of firearms. The NIA's investigations revealed, “Fayaaz was in contact with ‘Uncle’ alias Javed Patel through WhatsApp, and had conspired to carry out unlawful activities in India.”

“He had also received funds sent by Javed Patel, a designated individual terrorist, through his associate ‘Bhai’", NIA added.


According to the chargesheet filed by the NIA, Javed Patel, an accused wanted in connection with the case, is alleged to have perpetrated acts of terrorism through his associates. 


His modus operandi involved the possession and distribution of high-quality counterfeit Indian currency notes with the intention of destabilizing the monetary system in India, as stated by the NIA.
