CJSOTF EXECSUM. WHO : HAJI MOHAMMAD NOOR WHAT : Detained by CJSOTF elements partnered with an ANP force; transferred to U.S. control. NOOR is an associate of HABIB ZAI and assists with the procurement, transfer, and distribution of IED making material, rockets, RPG s, and other munitions to support attacks against CF and ANSF WHEN : 150515ZDEC07 WHERE : (42S XC 23524 91166) Mullah Khel Village, Chaparhar District, Nangarhar Province, AFG WHY : NOOR is a middle man for HABIB ZAI. There has been significant reporting implicating him in the transfer of weapons and IED s for INS in the Nangarhar Province. NOOR is from Chaparhar and his capture will hinder the INS ability to conduct IED attacks against CF and ANSF. Although he is not on the JEL or JPEL, he is an INS that is responsible for the transfer of IED and other munitions throughout the province. The capture of NOOR will disrupt INS operations in Nangarhar. His capture will also provide valuable intelligence on the INS infrastructure, locations, tactics, and IED cells in the province. ENDSTATE/EFFECTS : Target ECDR has been approved and the individual has been transported to the BTIF. The capture of NOOR will disrupt IED cells from having the ability to launch IED attacks against IROA and CF. CJSOTF elements identified the location of NOOR through its source network. This was the trigger for CJSOTF elements to direct the movement of ANP forces who moved in to detain him. CJSOTF elements remained in constant communications with the ANP element as they moved to detain the target ensuring that the ANP relayed updated information to CJSOTF elements. While the ANP were maneuvering to capture the target, CJSOTF elements staged to respond as a QRF in the even that they were decisively engaged. Following his arrest, the target was transferred to the CJSOTF detention facility. NFI. (CJSOTF)
