Jharkhand’s Anti-Terror Squad (ATS) claimed that it has arrested two youths, Ariz Hasnain and Mohammad Naseem, on charges of their alleged involvement with the terrorist organization ISIS. The arrests took place in Godda and Hazaribagh districts of the state.

According to the ATS, it received information indicating that Ariz Hasnain, a resident of Rahmat Nagar, Godda, was actively propagating the ideology of ISIS through social media platforms with the intention of radicalizing individuals.

“Jharkhand ATS had received the information that Ariz Hasnain, a resident of Rahmat Nagar under Asanbani PS, Godda, was spreading ISIS ideology through social media and radicalising innocent people. Acting upon the information, ATS interrogated him and found his association with ISIS. During sustained interrogation, he revealed another person named Mohammad Naseem also associated with ISIS. ATS has also recovered the suspicious chats on Ariz’s mobile through Telegram,” ATS was quoted as saying by news agency ANI.

“Ariz wanted to go to Palestine and carry out a Fidayeen attack at Majid Al Aqsa to free it from Jews,” it added.

Naseem had sent two books titled ‘Jihad’ and ‘Kufra with Tagoot’ to Ariz, promoting ISIS’s extremist ideology, the ATS claimed

In a separate operation, a joint team consisting of the Uttar Pradesh ATS and Chhattisgarh police claimed they arrested another suspected ISIS terrorist named Wajihuddin in Durg. Wajihuddin, a resident of Aligarh, Uttar Pradesh, was detained in Smriti Nagar under the Supela police station area. He claimed to be associated with SAMU (Students of Aligarh Muslim University) and to support the ideology of ISIS.

“In the preliminary interrogation, Wajihuddin informed that he was associated with SAMU (Students of Aligarh Muslim University) and supporter of the ideology of ISIS (Islamic State of Iraq and Syria, a middle-east terror group),” the release claimed.
