Nagpur (Maharashtra): On March 23, the National Investigation Agency (NIA) conducted searches at three locations in Nagpur in its ongoing probe into the Gazwa-e-Hind case that is linked to the radicalisation of impressionable youth over various social media platforms for carrying out violent terrorist acts.
The residences of the suspects involved in anti-national activities and the radicalisation of impressionable youth through social media were among the locations searched by NIA officials.
The Gazwa-e-Hind case was initially opened by the NIA on July 22 of last year at the Phulwari sharif Police Station in Bihar.
In the Phulwari Sharif investigations, the NIA said, “It is revealed that accused Margub Ahmad Danish, a self-radicalised individual, was in contact with a number of foreign entities on the WhatsApp group “Ghazwa-e-Hind” created by him”.
“In this group, terrorist acts and activities in Kashmir were being glorified with the view to radicalise impressionable youth. He had also created another WhatsApp group in the name of Ghazwa-e-Hind BD and was propagating conquest of India through violence,” the NIA had said earlier.
On January 6 this year, the NIA filed a charge sheet against an accused in the case in NIA Special Court in Bihar.
The NIA on March 15 also raided 15 locations in Jammu and Kashmir as well as in Punjab in a case related to terror conspiracy hatched by Pakistan-based proscribed organisations to radicalise youth of the Union Territory and target members of minority communities, security personnel and religious events and activities.
