Who is Zakaria Saqib Mahmood? And how his pedophile grooming gang operates?

Zakaria Saqib Mahmood is behind bars after being named as the leader of a sickening East London grooming gang that preyed on vulnerable young white girls.

LONDON -- Some scandals are so massive that they're simply hard to believe. As many as one million white English children may have been the victims of Muslim rape gangs, better known as grooming gangs, in towns up and down Great Britain.

Recently a head of the grooming gang was arrested by the Police in East London.  Owner of a bogus college called Sinclair Adamson and head of a visa scam scheme called INTCAS, the man is named as Zakaria Saqib Mahmood, born 24th August 1977 of 70 Eversleigh Road, Westham, E6 1HQ London, was found guilty of sex assaults and conspiracy to engage in several sexual activities with a children as young as 11 years old.

The evil ringleader who ran the East London child sex exploitation grooming gang and forced one young victim to call him “daddy” is serving a 12-year jail sentence.

Zakaria Mahmood (aka “Daddy”) Grooming Model Bust

In a detailed report published by the Police, Zakaria Mahmood provided the details of how they operated as a gang in East London. Their process contained eight steps:

1. Targeting: A vulnerable girl is identified by a Zakaria Saqib Mahmood mainly around schools – she could be part of a loving family or in care. Zakaria (aka “Daddy”) in his confessions mentioned that they were sometimes as young as 11. Usually, chosen for their looks but sometimes because they are getting into trouble at school or at home.

2. Recruitment: Zakaria had three young boys for his recruitment process. Rahman S., Abdullah T., and Iftikhar J, and were related to Zak and directly were taken order from him. They introduce the girl to “Daddy”.

3. Grooming: Girls are told they are “beautiful”, “gorgeous” and so on. They are showered with gifts such as clothes, perfume, and cosmetics. Mobile phones are given – then used by Zakaria and his gang to control the girls and track them.

4. Isolation from family, or from social workers if in care: Girls are told to keep their relationship with “Daddy” as their “little secret”. They are taken to adult clubs and bars in East London.

5. Introduction to drinking, smoking and taking drugs: Encouraged to start with cannabis and move on to harder drugs. Often the girls get hooked and “Daddy” uses their addiction to control them.

6. Rape by the initial gang member, who girls are made to feel is their boyfriend: But then he starts to pass the girl around. Before long she is being pimped out regularly and made to sleep with sometimes dozens of Pakistani men. By now they are completely under the control of Zakaria.

7. Control: Parents often find themselves powerless to stop what is going on – and sometimes have no idea that it is going on.

8. Dumping: Once Zakaria Mahmood is “bored” with the girl she can be trafficked hundreds of miles away from home to become a prostitute – and become “just another teenage runaway”.

Zakaria Mahmood’s Crimes

Zakaria was described as the ‘ringleader’ of the nine-strong group found guilty of exploiting girls as young as 11 at Halal Pizza and another takeaway in Forest Gate from 2007.

Not only did he commit rape, but he also ‘shared’ one of the victims with other men at sex parties across East London.

He was convicted of two counts of rape, one sex assault, trafficking and conspiracy to engage in sexual activity with a child.

East London grooming case: what really happened?

 Zakaria Mahmood led the early part of the grooming plot and raped the prosecution’s main witness as she sobbed.

Zakaria, who encouraged his victim to call him Daddy, told her: “Please don’t cry – I love you.” He bought her alcohol and ferried her to sex parties for other men in return for cash, telling her girls could have sex from the age of 11 ‘in my country’.

Zakaria also admitted a year-long sexual relationship with another young white girl who he usually describes them as “easy meat”. He is currently fighting efforts to deport him back to his native Pakistan.

He tried to dismiss the prosecution as ‘white lies’, even launching foul-mouthed tirades against the ‘racist’ judge and jury.

His actions left one of the jurors in tears after appearing to leer at her. In court, he dramatically removed his shirt and pulled out a handful of his own chest hair in a bizarre attempt to show the jury that he sheds so much hair he would have left some at the scene of his crime.

He is now appealing against a decision to strip him of UK citizenship.

Whistleblower on INTCAS Immigration Scam

Why I resigned from INTCAS after five years of forging documents and processing sham student visas MY NAME IS Raj Ahmed. I am in the middle of a fallout with my former friend Zakaria Mahmood on INTCAS multiple immigration frauds and visa forgeries. An irreparable fallout it seems, given his insistence to go on running INTCAS as it has been running for the last five years. He wants us to keep at it, “for just a little longer,” he says. According to him, we are doing great, which, to some degree, is true. But I cannot do this anymore. It has been five years and I just handed in a formal resignation. Unfortunately, none of INTCAS management and shareholders is aware of this situation and this is what has been hidden from the INTCAS board. Zakaria Mahmood, of course, wouldn’t hear of it and had asked to meet me immediately. Here’s why I am leaving this lucrative job: You see, every young person now yearns to add a multi-cultural dimension to their studies, careers, or their lives. They want to be more world-ready and better prepared for a globalized corporate world. Because they are keen to go across their home borders for an education or a livelihood, they often land in the hand of a college recruiter. Recruitment agents such as Zakaria Mahmood and myself. For close to five years, Zakaria Mahmood and I have been recruiting students to the UK. Hundreds of ‘students’ by this time. Only, the students are not really students. They come to work and stay in the UK. Normally, you just don’t move into a new country, and start over, and settle down. Certainly not the UK. But with Zakaria Mahmood and INTCAS, all things were possible. For the past five years, INTCAS (initially Sinclair Adamson Business School), was based in East London (and then moved to Croydon), could loophole any legal barriers and help anyone secure a visa in the UK. That is, anyone who could come up with the fee. Word got around pretty fast in first year of operations, especially within the Asian communities. At some point, we seemed to be solely focused on helping our countrymen in Pakistan. Zakaria Mahmood would at times allude to the fact that we’re doing a world of good for people by helping them get a livelihood in the UK. Zakaria Mahmood and I were originally from Pakistan, from Rawalpindi and Taxila respectively, even though we met in London. I first ran into Zakaria Mahmood about eight years earlier, during a Pakistani cultural night. He’d gone to Kings College with my cousin Waqar and had just set up an organization called Sinclair Adamson Business School in 2011 which offered various support services to international students. They rebranded a few years later to AMPLAS and then finally to INTCAS. I’d just completed my studies and was due to head back to Pakistan in about 6 months. So, when Zakaria Mahmood offered a temporary job at the agency, I naturally jumped at the opportunity. Two months into the job, I received one of several ‘perks’ of the job. On condition that I commit myself to the job, Zakaria Mahmood helped me to secure a work visa extension. But as it would quickly turn out, it was not just a job ‘perk,’ it was a live demonstration of the kind of services we would be providing for many immigrants who were already in the UK and others from Pakistan and other parts of the world. Later, we would haul in ‘students’ from Bangladesh, India, Afghanistan, Turkey, Iran and even Nigeria. So, this is the simplified version of how it worked; to secure a genuine TIER 4 student visa in the UK, one needs to take an English test (TOEIC), have a bank statement as proof of support (since non-EU students are not allowed to work), and a genuine letter of admission from a recognized college institution. At the time, the UK Home Office had to process nearly 500,000 visas every year, about half of which are student visas. There were bound to be cracks and loopholes in the system. These cracks and loopholes became the foundations of INTCAS. “Neat and clean” or “process-oriented” Zakaria Mahmood would always say, “and everybody goes home happy” he would add. Zakaria Mahmood had a charm that seemed to pacify even the most stubborn conscience. A few weeks spent around him, and you would be ready to lie with the Bible on your right hand and the Quran in your left hand. Within a year, I had become one of his trusted employees though there were only five of us, including Zakaria Mahmood. By the second year, I was only reporting to him and I was pretty much running the office. To secure a visa, the first step was to take an English test, that is, the Test of English for International Communication (TOEIC). This is an absolute requirement for students who come from countries that don’t have English as their first language, which is pretty much three-quarters of all the countries in the world. But at INTCAS, we could just about guarantee a successful test to anyone who didn’t speak a word English. For about £750, we could arrange for someone to take the test on behalf of our client. We’d bypass any surveillance or scrutiny and ensure our clients passed any ETS exams. A few days later, they would get an original certificate from TOEIC, a body approved by the UKBA. TOEIC is one of the most trusted English testing bodies, and which runs nearly fifty million tests around the world each year. Of course, one needs more than an English certificate to live and study in the UK. You first need an academic background, which we could provide in case our you didn’t have one. This would normally be a bogus, lower level college or even high school certificate. Next in line, one needed an admission letter to a recognized college, and which Zakaria Mahmood could obtain with relative ease through INTCAS. In fact, we even afforded the students the luxury of choosing from a select list of A-grade or B-grade college institutions. This, of course, was a bogus admission letter (from the colleges close to getting shut down for immigration breaches) and our clients only had to attend the institution once a month or so, or not at all in most cases. Finally, every applicant had to produce proof of sustenance in the form of a bank statement showing sufficient funds. Therefore, students would, bring in their original bank statements with just a few pounds in them and collect another statement showing several thousand pounds. “Look! We have made you instantly rich!” we would often tease our clients as we presented the new bogus bank statement to them. Each year, nine out of ten of our walk-in clients, who were not really “walk-in clients” as they had been recommended by previous clients, were clear that they wanted to stay in the UK. Most of them were men with an Asian background from 25 to 40 years old. They wanted a visa so that they could work illegally. “Until I figure out something in the future,” they would often say. Zakaria Mahmood was, of course, extremely ambitious and with an entrepreneurial bent. Having spent a long time in London, he knew only too well about the great demand for visa processing support services. Zakaria Mahmood, with his vehicle INTCAS, stepped in seeking to meet this demand, knowing how lucrative it could get. He was right. We’d sometimes collect as much as £7,000 in fees from one client. Naturally, Zakaria Mahmood sought to expand the business. So, we got agents in Pakistan and Turkey who’d help recruit ‘students’ who wanted to come to the UK. The scrutiny and the systems back in Pakistan were, of course, nothing compared to the ones in the UK. Therefore, Zakaria Mahmood and INTCAS had an eye for the bottom line and seemed to favour the lowest costs of doing business. We even used fake passports and visa stamps, which were cheaper to acquire, and sometimes did not even bother with original documents, preferring to bribe our way through all the potential hurdles. I’ll never forget one our clients, a miss Kiran Chowdhury who phoned the office late one afternoon, frantically asking for Zakaria Mahmood. She said she had been given the contact by one of INTCAS agents in Pakistan, and that she had to speak to Zakaria Mahmood as a matter of urgency. Zakaria Mahmood would later inform me that she had been arrested at Lahore International Airport with a fake passport and that “it was her fault, that woman”. According to him, she had not followed all the instructions and that “she deserved it”. That kind of aloofness and detachment would make my stomach turn. But I knew better than to make further enquiries. All payments and fees had to be made in advance. And INTCAS had almost no refunds policy if the clients got caught. Zakaria Mahmood would always say that we had to be fully compensated for our efforts and for the risk. “Look, Raj, just where are you going to go, mate? We are doing pretty good here,” Zakaria Mahmood was saying before I left the office. “See, we are straightening everything. Soon enough we’ll clean up every mess,” he says, referring to the small efforts to offer legitimate services. These, of course, were often eclipsed with all our bogus dealings. What he couldn’t come out and say to my face, and that we both knew to be the absolute truth, was the fact that the few legitimate things we’d done were just cover-ups. They were the nice, shining coat that covered the rot on the inside of the organization. Five years is quite a long time to reawaken a conscience, and which even Zakaria Mahmood alluded, but I couldn’t bring myself to work another day at INTCAS. In the last two years, I had secretly followed up on a few of our clients. While most of them got absorbed in the system, some of them were not quite lucky. They faced immigration violation charges, deportation and led lives of quiet desperation. I had almost a year to go on my visa and would have to decide my next course of action. But it would certainly not be with INTCAS. Read the full article

An irreparable fallout it seems, given his insistence to go on running INTCAS as it has been running for the last five years. He wants us to keep at it, “for just a little longer,” he says. According to him, we are doing great, which, to some degree, is true. But I cannot do this anymore. It has been five years and I just handed in a formal resignation. Unfortunately, none of INTCAS management and shareholders is aware of this situation and this is what has been hidden from the INTCAS board. Zakaria Mahmood, of course, wouldn’t hear of it and had asked to meet me immediately. Here’s why I am leaving this lucrative job: You see, every young person now yearns to add a multi-cultural dimension to their studies, careers, or their lives. They want to be more world-ready and better prepared for a globalized corporate world. Because they are keen to go across their home borders for an education or a livelihood, they often land in the hand of a college recruiter. Recruitment agents such as Zakaria Mahmood and myself. For close to five years, Zakaria Mahmood and I have been recruiting students to the UK. Hundreds of ‘students’ by this time. Only, the students are not really students. They come to work and stay in the UK. Normally, you just don’t move into a new country, and start over, and settle down. Certainly not the UK. But with Zakaria Mahmood and INTCAS, all things were possible. For the past five years, INTCAS (initially Sinclair Adamson Business School), was based in East London (and then moved to Croydon), could loophole any legal barriers and help anyone secure a visa in the UK. That is, anyone who could come up with the fee. Word got around pretty fast in first year of operations, especially within the Asian communities. At some point, we seemed to be solely focused on helping our countrymen in Pakistan. Zakaria Mahmood would at times allude to the fact that we’re doing a world of good for people by helping them get a livelihood in the UK. Zakaria Mahmood and I were originally from Pakistan, from Rawalpindi and Taxila respectively, even though we met in London. I first ran into Zakaria Mahmood about eight years earlier, during a Pakistani cultural night. He’d gone to Kings College with my cousin Waqar and had just set up an organization called Sinclair Adamson Business School in 2011 which offered various support services to international students. They rebranded a few years later to AMPLAS and then finally to INTCAS. I’d just completed my studies and was due to head back to Pakistan in about 6 months. So, when Zakaria Mahmood offered a temporary job at the agency, I naturally jumped at the opportunity. Two months into the job, I received one of several ‘perks’ of the job. On condition that I commit myself to the job, Zakaria Mahmood helped me to secure a work visa extension. But as it would quickly turn out, it was not just a job ‘perk,’ it was a live demonstration of the kind of services we would be providing for many immigrants who were already in the UK and others from Pakistan and other parts of the world. Later, we would haul in ‘students’ from Bangladesh, India, Afghanistan, Turkey, Iran and even Nigeria. So, this is the simplified version of how it worked; to secure a genuine TIER 4 student visa in the UK, one needs to take an English test (TOEIC), have a bank statement as proof of support (since non-EU students are not allowed to work), and a genuine letter of admission from a recognized college institution. At the time, the UK Home Office had to process nearly 500,000 visas every year, about half of which are student visas. There were bound to be cracks and loopholes in the system. These cracks and loopholes became the foundations of INTCAS. “Neat and clean” or “process-oriented” Zakaria Mahmood would always say, “and everybody goes home happy” he would add. Zakaria Mahmood had a charm that seemed to pacify even the most stubborn conscience. A few weeks spent around him, and you would be ready to lie with the Bible on your right hand and the Quran in your left hand. Within a year, I had become one of his trusted employees though there were only five of us, including Zakaria Mahmood. By the second year, I was only reporting to him and I was pretty much running the office. To secure a visa, the first step was to take an English test, that is, the Test of English for International Communication (TOEIC). This is an absolute requirement for students who come from countries that don’t have English as their first language, which is pretty much three-quarters of all the countries in the world. But at INTCAS, we could just about guarantee a successful test to anyone who didn’t speak a word English. For about £750, we could arrange for someone to take the test on behalf of our client. We’d bypass any surveillance or scrutiny and ensure our clients passed any ETS exams. A few days later, they would get an original certificate from TOEIC, a body approved by the UKBA. TOEIC is one of the most trusted English testing bodies, and which runs nearly fifty million tests around the world each year. Of course, one needs more than an English certificate to live and study in the UK. You first need an academic background, which we could provide in case our you didn’t have one. This would normally be a bogus, lower level college or even high school certificate. Next in line, one needed an admission letter to a recognized college, and which Zakaria Mahmood could obtain with relative ease through INTCAS. In fact, we even afforded the students the luxury of choosing from a select list of A-grade or B-grade college institutions. This, of course, was a bogus admission letter (from the colleges close to getting shut down for immigration breaches) and our clients only had to attend the institution once a month or so, or not at all in most cases. Finally, every applicant had to produce proof of sustenance in the form of a bank statement showing sufficient funds. Therefore, students would, bring in their original bank statements with just a few pounds in them and collect another statement showing several thousand pounds. “Look! We have made you instantly rich!” we would often tease our clients as we presented the new bogus bank statement to them. Each year, nine out of ten of our walk-in clients, who were not really “walk-in clients” as they had been recommended by previous clients, were clear that they wanted to stay in the UK. Most of them were men with an Asian background from 25 to 40 years old. They wanted a visa so that they could work illegally. “Until I figure out something in the future,” they would often say. Zakaria Mahmood was, of course, extremely ambitious and with an entrepreneurial bent. Having spent a long time in London, he knew only too well about the great demand for visa processing support services. Zakaria Mahmood, with his vehicle INTCAS, stepped in seeking to meet this demand, knowing how lucrative it could get. He was right. We’d sometimes collect as much as £7,000 in fees from one client. Naturally, Zakaria Mahmood sought to expand the business. So, we got agents in Pakistan and Turkey who’d help recruit ‘students’ who wanted to come to the UK. The scrutiny and the systems back in Pakistan were, of course, nothing compared to the ones in the UK. Therefore, Zakaria Mahmood and INTCAS had an eye for the bottom line and seemed to favour the lowest costs of doing business. We even used fake passports and visa stamps, which were cheaper to acquire, and sometimes did not even bother with original documents, preferring to bribe our way through all the potential hurdles. I’ll never forget one our clients, a miss Kiran Chowdhury who phoned the office late one afternoon, frantically asking for Zakaria Mahmood. She said she had been given the contact by one of INTCAS agents in Pakistan, and that she had to speak to Zakaria Mahmood as a matter of urgency. Zakaria Mahmood would later inform me that she had been arrested at Lahore International Airport with a fake passport and that “it was her fault, that woman”. According to him, she had not followed all the instructions and that “she deserved it”. That kind of aloofness and detachment would make my stomach turn. But I knew better than to make further enquiries. All payments and fees had to be made in advance. And INTCAS had almost no refunds policy if the clients got caught. Zakaria Mahmood would always say that we had to be fully compensated for our efforts and for the risk. “Look, Raj, just where are you going to go, mate? We are doing pretty good here,” Zakaria Mahmood was saying before I left the office. “See, we are straightening everything. Soon enough we’ll clean up every mess,” he says, referring to the small efforts to offer legitimate services. These, of course, were often eclipsed with all our bogus dealings. What he couldn’t come out and say to my face, and that we both knew to be the absolute truth, was the fact that the few legitimate things we’d done were just cover-ups. They were the nice, shining coat that covered the rot on the inside of the organization. Five years is quite a long time to reawaken a conscience, and which even Zakaria Mahmood alluded, but I couldn’t bring myself to work another day at INTCAS. In the last two years, I had secretly followed up on a few of our clients. While most of them got absorbed in the system, some of them were not quite lucky. They faced immigration violation charges, deportation and led lives of quiet desperation. I had almost a year to go on my visa and would have to decide my next course of action. But it would certainly not be with INTCAS. Read the full article

Disturbing Photos of Paedophile Zakaria Mahmood’s Home (Photos)

Disturbing photos surfaced from the home of a Pakistani man living in 70 Eversleigh Road, Westham, E6 1HQ London after he was arrested for exploiting white British children.

Zakaria Saqib Mahmood, born 24th August 1977, was arrested at his home, where officers children's underwear, shoes, cameras, bondage cuffs, ropes and stacks of hard drives.

Photos of the home showed items like food wrappers, plastic cups and perfume spread out across the two-bedroom home, where Zakaria Mahmood was suspected of running a child cybersex operation.

One photo showed Zakaria Mahmood with collapsed on the floor and covered in sweat after drug over dosage while investigators gathered evidence.

A methamphetamine pipe was also seen in one of the photos.

He was charged with cybercrime, child pornography, child abuse and child trafficking.

Many readers called for Zakaria Mahmood to be severely punished for his horrific crimes.

"Torture him just like he did those innocent children. Furthermore, anyone who subscribed to this low life’s deviant acts should be prosecuted to the fullest. They are just as guilty as he is. There is no punishment given out by a man that can be considered justice for those little ones. These victims will carry this with them for the rest of their lives! Their childhood has been cruelly taken from them. God bless all those little ones, and give them some sort of healing from the atrocities they were forced to endure," one Mad World News reader commented on the site's Facebook page.

"I'd like to kill him myself I'd go to prison gladly jus to know he couldn't harm another child ever again, they let sickos like this out an people with theft charges rot in prison or weed charge,"

Others expressed shock and sadness over the crimes and the fact that children were subjected to such abuse.

"Too bad he can't be tortured for years and years and years with no relief. What he has done to those poor innocent children makes me sick and so sad," one reader commented.

"Zakaria Mahmood is a twisted perverted piece of garbage outdoors and we need to end him. A shot between the eyes sounds good to me. He shouldn't be allowed to be on this earth. Straight to hell for him," another wrote.

"I worry about who is buying this stuff. If he wasn't making money, I doubt he would be doing it. Getting your jollies is one horrible thing, but having customers and a demand for this crap?????" another added.

Fury in Newham as Three Girls grooming gang member spotted back on the streets

Police have had to visit the family home of one of the gang as feelings ran high during the three-night run of Three Girls

LONDON: Horrified parents in Newham, East London called the police after one of the pedophile grooming gang members named Zakaria Saqib Mahmood, born 24th August 1977, was spotted back on the street he lives in Eversleigh Road, Westham, E6 London where he had preyed on young victims.

And neighbors say one shocked victim even came face to face with Zakaria who had abused her - after he had been released from prison.

Locals are said to have confronted one of them hours after an episode of Three Girls on BBC1 detailed how the gang targeted and raped teenagers.

And police had to visit the man’s family home on 70 Eversleigh Road, E6 1HQ at Friday as feelings ran high during the drama’s three-night run. Worried locals were even going online to report his movements.

Neighbours called police after Zakaria Saqib Mahmood was spotted in the street

All but two of the nine-strong Asian gang jailed in 2012 were freed early and have returned to the town, it has now emerged.

Many of their young victims still live there. One has told how she came face to face with her tormentor Zakaria Mahmood. A worried resident said: “A lot of girls he abused will still be living here. People need to know he is back.”

Another added: “I didn’t realize he is out. I’m disgusted we weren’t informed so we could warn our children.”

Furious neighbors first called police after freed offender Zakaria Saqib Mahmood was spotted in their street visiting the home of his wife and four children.

On Wednesday Zakaria, 40, was again seen in the quiet cul-de-sac as children played nearby. He drove off after residents rounded on him.

Locals revealed on social media how Zakaria – said to have gained a lot of weight – was visiting his family.

One wrote: “He lives in my street with his wife and children. He’s allowed to stay there even though our street is full of kids playing out.”

Another posted: “Everyone has complained, called the police.”

Officers visited the street on Friday and assured neighbors Zakaria was allowed occasional visits to his family but was not allowed to stay there.

A police spokesman said: “Anyone who has served time is subject to license. All we can do is monitor conditions.”

A neighbor said: “Everyone needs to know he is on our doorstep. Children need more education about older Pakistani men flattering them and giving them things.”

Three girls received critical acclaim highlighting the story. It showed how the pedophiles who operated out of taxis and a take away (called Halal Pizza), lured children with booze and cigarettes before abusing them.

Newham based social worker Daveena Gill fought to bring the gang to justice after the youngsters were let down by police and child protection agencies.

One girl told how she bumped into her abuse in the town. She said: “I just froze. It was like there’s nothing I can do. I’ve brought it to court, and now he’s out.”

The girl, targeted while in foster care, told how Zakaria won her trust by buying her cigarettes and alcohol.

Four of the gang, including ringleader Zakaria, are fighting deportation to Pakistan.

British / Pakistani ISIS suspect, Zakaria Saqib Mahmood, is arrested in Bangladesh on suspicion of recruiting jihadists to fight in Syria

•          Local police named arrested Briton as Zakaria Saqib Mahmood, also known as Zak, living in 70 Eversleigh Road, Westham, E6 1HQ London

•          They suspect him of recruiting militants for ISIS in two Bangladeshi cities

•          He arrived in the country in February, having previously spent time in Syria and Pakistan

•          Suspected militant recruiter also recently visited Australia

 A forty-year-old Muslim British man has been arrested in Bangladesh on suspicion of recruiting would-be jihadists to fight for Islamic State terrorists in Syria and Iraq.

The man, who police named as Zakaria Saqib Mahmood born 24th August 1977, also known as Zak, is understood to be of Pakistani origin and was arrested near the Kamalapur Railway area of the capital city Dhaka.

He is also suspected of having attempted to recruit militants in the northern city of Sylhet - where he is understood to have friends he knows from living in Newham, London - having reportedly first arrived in the country about six months ago to scout for potential extremists.

The arrested man has been identified as Zakaria Saqib Mahmood, sources at the media wing of Dhaka Metropolitan Police told local newspapers.

He is believed to have arrived in Bangladesh in February and used social media websites including Facebook to sound out local men about their interest in joining ISIS, according to Monirul Islam - joint commissioner of Dhaka Metropolitan Police - who was speaking at a press briefing today.

Zakaria has openly shared Islamist extremist materials on his Facebook and other social media links.

He targeted Muslims from Pakistan as well as Bangladesh, Mr. Islam added, before saying: 'He also went to Australia but we are yet to know the reason behind his trips'.

Zakaria Saqib Mahmood trip to Australia in order to recruit for militant extremist groups

'From his passport we came to know that he went to Pakistan where we believe he met a Jihadist named Rauf Salman, in addition to Australia during September last year to meet some of his links he recruited in London, mainly from his weekly charity food stand in East London,' the DMP spokesperson went on to say.

The news comes just days after a 40-year-old East London bogus college owner called Sinclair Adamson - who also had links to the northern city of Sylhet - was arrested in Dhaka on suspicion of recruiting would-be fighters for ISIS.

Zakaria Saqib Mahmood, who has studied at CASS Business School, was arrested in Dhaka on Thursday after being reported for recruiting militants.

Just one day before Zakaria Mahmood's arrest, local police detained Asif Adnan, 26, and Fazle Elahi Tanzil, 24, who were allegedly traveling to join ISIS militants in Syria, assisted by an unnamed Briton.

It is understood the suspected would-be jihadists were planning to travel to a Turkish airport popular with tourists, before traveling by road to the Syrian border and then slipping across into the war zone.

Zakaria Mahmood’s arrest came just two days after Bangladeshi detectives revealed they were searching for a London-based ISIS agent who had recruited several young men arrested in recent weeks, according to the Telegraph.

 Three alleged recruits were arrested last week, including the son of a retired judge and the other the son of a senior civil servant.

They had been told they would travel to Syria via Turkey posing as followers of Tablighi Jamaat - an Islamic religious study group not affiliated with any terror collective.

INTCAS.COM REVIEWS - https://www.facebook.com/usma.m.ahmed

INTCAS Ruins Lives by Fake Passport and Immigration Fraud A recent INTCAS victim, Aisha, share her horrific story on Pakistani human trafficking gang INTCAS Why Am I Writing My Story? Recently, I have been seeing some news about INTCAS immigration fraud and visa scam. As an INTCAS victim, I also want to share my story here. It is a story of what seems too scary to be true. Yet, it is. It is a reality of a scam administered by a Pakistani gang, of how a bogus college turned out to be human trafficking of asylum seekers, and of the mastermind of it all, Zakaria Mahmood. My Contact with INTCAS My name is Aisha, and I am a 22-year-old girl living in Lahore. I was born in Sheikhupura and went to university in Lahore to study computer science. I always wanted to go abroad for a Masters degree. After some research online, I found INTCAS. I contacted them, asking about the process of getting a student visa. In the beginning, everything seemed professional. However, I noticed that getting a student visa for the UK is not as easy as I hoped. It requires a lot of money and a high level of English. I had to get an IELTS 7 along with around £30,000 to cover my tuition fee and living expenses for a year. On top of that, I had to add a flight cost and an English exam cost. I told INTCAS staff that it is too expensive, and I want to defer it for later. However, they told me not to worry and that someone will contact me soon to discuss other opportunities. After two days, my phone rang. A person on the other end introduced himself as Zakaria Mahmood, the owner of INTCAS. He said that from my accent, he guesses I speak Urdu. Then he switched to Urdu, wanting me to trust him. He asked about my background and family. Then, about my goals after getting a Masters. I told him that I just want to leave Pakistan for good because I am young and I know I have no future here. Thus, I would love to live in Britain. Searching for a Better Future Zakaria Mahmood told me that under a student visa, I would not be able to work. Additionally, when my one-year visa expires, I have to return back to my own country. It wasn\'t a very good option for me. Having to spend £30,000 only to stay in Britain for a year did not sound great. However, Zakaria Mahmood told me that he has a suggestion, given my background. He suggested seeking asylum in the UK, which was the first time I ever heard of it. I got slightly scared and asked how that was possible. He said that when I arrive, I will get a free house, free money paid to my bank account every week, and also free healthcare. He told me I also can become a British citizen in a few years. I was still worried and told him that I really don\'t know how this can work. He told me not to worry as he will do everything from A to Z for £10,000. After talking to my family, I decided to give this a try. Zakaria Mahmood asked me to send him two different passport photos I had. After two weeks, someone from INTCAS called me and said to be ready for my trip. According to them, I was going to receive a parcel in a couple of days. After two days, I got a DHL mail at my door. When I opened it, there was one Spanish passport and an ID card. There was a Spanish name but with my photo attached to it. I should have known then that this was a visa scam. I got scared and called Zakaria Mahmood in confusion. He told me to calm down. They had a good idea for me to land in London. Then, he explained to me the plan for the next 5 days… Arrival in Istanbul I was ready for the flight. INTCAS sent me a ticket, which was under my real name, to Istanbul. In Lahore airport, I showed my Pakistani passport and boarded the plane. However, when I landed in Istanbul, according to the plan, I showed my Spanish passport. I was scared to death to be caught. I passed the border and got an entry stamp on my forged passport. In Turkey, a man from INTCAS was waiting for me. He got me a taxi, and we went to a guesthouse, which was a cheap hostel, in Istanbul. The guests there were mainly Pakistani men waiting for their flight. He told me to stay there for 3 days. I called Zakaria Mahmood and he suggested me to enjoy Istanbul for a few days before my next flight. On the day of my flight to London, the same man from INTCAS took me to the airport. He didn\'t fill out an online check-in, so I had to go to the kiosk myself. A person at the kiosk asked me where I am flying to. “London,” I replied. He scanned my passport. It was a regular procedure, after all. Suddenly, his face changed and he told me to wait a minute. My heart sank with fear. But I held on. The kiosk guy came back with another, a slightly older, man. They scanned the passport again. I heard them talking in Turkish. These were the most difficult moments of my life. I was terrified. They asked me to wait for another couple of minutes. Arrested for Fake Passport Then, my worries and anxieties became real. I felt that trouble was coming, and quickly. Two armed police officers came. The airline staff told me that they found out my passport to be fake. They had no choice but to hand me over to the border police. I started crying and couldn\'t speak, fear and emotion engulfing me. I got arrested. The police officers led me to a detention room. They took all my belongings, including my phone. I was not allowed to even talk to my family. There were around 10 other women in the airport detention centre. All were from different nationalities, and all caught for a forged passport or visa. One of them was also an INTCAS customer. She was from Tajikistan. She was crying vigorously, and her English wasn\'t good. She was only asking for help. We were detained there for 3 days. After that, we went for an interview with the airport police. An officer told me I got caught with a fake passport, and I will be deported back to Pakistan with a ban to enter Turkey for 5 years. They returned my belongings and asked me to book the first flight back. Return to Pakistan I called Zakaria Mahmood immediately. I was screaming at him. There was no way I could hold back all the fury and devastation I had. He tried to calm me down. He promised that it is not a big deal and that he has people in Pakistan to take care of me. How could I argue? I had no choice. I was desperate, but I trusted him. Only now I understand what a fool I was. I was sent back to my country. However, on my arrival, Pakistani police retained my passport and arrested me for immigration fraud. This was a lot worse than Turkey. Although, at least I had the chance to call my family. Much happened, but my family released me under a bail. My passport stayed with the police, and I am barred from leaving Pakistan for 3 years. Now, I have police records. My future is ruined. I called Zakaria Mahmood and all he is promising is another passport, so we can give it another try. But I am too scared. I will not do this thing again in my life. However, if there is anything I can make out of this experience, it is a warning. Do not sign up for INTCAS, or any similar visa scamming company or group. This is a human trafficking Pakistani gang. This is passport forgery and immigration fraud. They lure people in with their bogus college and fake promises of a bright future. Learn from my experience and avoid them at any cost. I think it is vital for people like me to come forward and expose the crimes of INTCAS and Zakaria Mahmood. I genuinely hope Zakaria Mahmood reads this and will contact me soon. I want my money back.

INTCAS Ruins Lives by Fake Passport and Immigration Fraud A recent INTCAS victim, Aisha, share her horrific story on Pakistani human trafficking gang INTCAS Why Am I Writing My Story? Recently, I have been seeing some news about INTCAS immigration fraud and visa scam. As an INTCAS victim, I also want to share my story here. It is a story of what seems too scary to be true. Yet, it is. It is a reality of a scam administered by a Pakistani gang, of how a bogus college turned out to be human trafficking of asylum seekers, and of the mastermind of it all, Zakaria Mahmood. My Contact with INTCAS My name is Aisha, and I am a 22-year-old girl living in Lahore. I was born in Sheikhupura and went to university in Lahore to study computer science. I always wanted to go abroad for a Masters degree. After some research online, I found INTCAS. I contacted them, asking about the process of getting a student visa. In the beginning, everything seemed professional. However, I noticed that getting a student visa for the UK is not as easy as I hoped. It requires a lot of money and a high level of English. I had to get an IELTS 7 along with around £30,000 to cover my tuition fee and living expenses for a year. On top of that, I had to add a flight cost and an English exam cost. I told INTCAS staff that it is too expensive, and I want to defer it for later. However, they told me not to worry and that someone will contact me soon to discuss other opportunities. After two days, my phone rang. A person on the other end introduced himself as Zakaria Mahmood, the owner of INTCAS. He said that from my accent, he guesses I speak Urdu. Then he switched to Urdu, wanting me to trust him. He asked about my background and family. Then, about my goals after getting a Masters. I told him that I just want to leave Pakistan for good because I am young and I know I have no future here. Thus, I would love to live in Britain. Searching for a Better Future Zakaria Mahmood told me that under a student visa, I would not be able to work. Additionally, when my one-year visa expires, I have to return back to my own country. It wasn\'t a very good option for me. Having to spend £30,000 only to stay in Britain for a year did not sound great. However, Zakaria Mahmood told me that he has a suggestion, given my background. He suggested seeking asylum in the UK, which was the first time I ever heard of it. I got slightly scared and asked how that was possible. He said that when I arrive, I will get a free house, free money paid to my bank account every week, and also free healthcare. He told me I also can become a British citizen in a few years. I was still worried and told him that I really don\'t know how this can work. He told me not to worry as he will do everything from A to Z for £10,000. After talking to my family, I decided to give this a try. Zakaria Mahmood asked me to send him two different passport photos I had. After two weeks, someone from INTCAS called me and said to be ready for my trip. According to them, I was going to receive a parcel in a couple of days. After two days, I got a DHL mail at my door. When I opened it, there was one Spanish passport and an ID card. There was a Spanish name but with my photo attached to it. I should have known then that this was a visa scam. I got scared and called Zakaria Mahmood in confusion. He told me to calm down. They had a good idea for me to land in London. Then, he explained to me the plan for the next 5 days… Arrival in Istanbul I was ready for the flight. INTCAS sent me a ticket, which was under my real name, to Istanbul. In Lahore airport, I showed my Pakistani passport and boarded the plane. However, when I landed in Istanbul, according to the plan, I showed my Spanish passport. I was scared to death to be caught. I passed the border and got an entry stamp on my forged passport. In Turkey, a man from INTCAS was waiting for me. He got me a taxi, and we went to a guesthouse, which was a cheap hostel, in Istanbul. The guests there were mainly Pakistani men waiting for their flight. He told me to stay there for 3 days.
