NEW DELHI: Slain Pakistani journalist Syed Saleem Shahzad wanted his recently released book, 'Inside al Qaeda and Taleban -- Beyond bin Laden and 9/11', to be translated into all Indian languages to familiarize Indians with the direct threat they faced from al-Qaida. Just before he went missing last month, he had contacted members of the Indian strategic community seeking help in identifying publishers who could help him in this exercise.

While Shahzad's indictment of al-Qaida seems to be one of the reasons for his undoing, the Pakistani journalist had repeatedly emphasized in his meetings with Indian experts that India was emerging as one of the main targets of al-Qaida. Shahzad insisted that al-Qaida was trying to surround India by terror and was working on a plan to set up its terror camps in almost all of India's neighbouring countries to achieve this. Al-Qaida, he said, was particularly focusing on Bangladesh to set up anti-India terror camps.
