Unveiling terror links; NIA raids 12 places in connection to banned Jamaat-e-Islani organization in J&K

Srinagar, October 27: Leaving no stones unturned, dragging out terror links from every nook and corner, the National Investigation Agency carried out raids at nearly 12 places in connection with activities linked to the banned Jamaat-e-Islani (JeI) organization. The raids were conducted at the premises of JeI activists in Budgam, Bandipora, and other districts by NIA sleuths assisted by the local police and the CRPF.

 

 

The raids carried out by NIA are part of the ongoing investigation being carried out by the NIA into the terror funding case. Similar raids were carried out by the agency two months back on the houses and offices of prominent JeI leaders. After carrying out the raids, those involved were summoned to appear before the NIA in Delhi.

 

Earlier on Friday, eight operatives of various proscribed terror organizations were arrested during multiple searches spread across six districts of Jammu and Kashmir in connection with a terrorism conspiracy case, the National Investigation Agency (NIA) had said.

 

The searches were carried out at 10 locations in Srinagar, Kulgam, Shopian, Pulwama, Anantnag, and Baramulla districts, which also led to the seizure of electronic devices and incriminating 'Jihadi' (holy war) documents and posters, an agency official said.

 

With this, a total of 21 accused people had been arrested in connection with the terrorism conspiracy case which was registered on October 10.
