The raids revealed links of the suspects, whose premises were searched today, with Pakistan-based handlers. During the raids, mobile phones, SIM cards and several documents were seized by the federal agency. These suspects were in contact with the handlers and were involved in propagating the radical, anti-India idea of Gazwa-e-Hind, it said. The case was initially registered on July 14 last year by the Phulwarisharif police in bihar, following the arrest of Marghoob Ahmad Danish alias “Tahir” who was the administrator of the whatsapp group Ghazwa-e-Hind, created by a Pakistani national identified as Zain.
The official said the accused, Tahir, had added many people from india as well as other countries, including Pakistan, bangladesh and Yemen, to the group, which was also active on other social media platforms such as Telegram and BiP Messenger. The case was initially investigated by bihar police, who filed an FIR against one Marghoob Ahmad Danish. In July 2022, NIA took over the investigation from bihar police and a chargesheet has already been filed against Danish by the anti-terror agency under relevant sections of the indian Penal Code and the Unlawful Activities (Prevention) Act.
