The National Investigation Agency on
Thursday filed a charge sheet against eight persons, including two
Yazdani brothers, hailing from the city and arrested them on charges of
alleged links with banned Islamic State organisation.
On July 29 this year, the NIA raided
several parts of the old city of Hyderabad and arrested Abdullah Bin
Ahmed Al Amoodi alias Fahad alias Abuhaleem (31) of Charminar, Mohammed
Ibrahim Yazdani alias Abu Abdurrahman (29) of Talabkatta, Habeeb
Mohammed alias Abu Shaibah (31) of Hashmabad, Mohammed Ilyas Yazdani
alias Abu Mansoor (24) of Talabkatta, and Muzaffar Hussain Rizwan alias
Rizwan alias Abulhasan (29) of Talabkatta, for conspiring to carry out
attacks in Hyderabad.
Subsequently, the NIA arrested Yasir
Naimathullah alias Ullah Hussaini alias Abu Darda (44) of Moghalpura,
Mohammed Ataullah Rahman alias Ghouse alias Ibne Bidri (31) of
Bandlaguda and Abdul Raoof @ Mohammed Almashrifi (24) of Talabkatta.
They allegedly formed Jund-ul-Khilafa Fi Bilad-al-Hind (Army of the Caliph from the South India).
During investigation, the NIA said that
it could establish that the arrested members used different modes of
communication to connect within the IS group and with the overseas IS
handlers.
“They formed a group called
Jund-ul-Khilafa Fi Bilad-al Hind (Army of the Caliph from the South
India). All the accused had conspired with a common intent to strike
terror and threaten the safety, security and integrity of the nation.
“They used the dark net through Tor browser, used encrypted applications
such as Orbot, Amn al Mujahid (An encryption program by Al-Fajr Media
Centre), Chat secure and Telegram applications, and also encrypted
emails like Tutanota on a Tails Operating System platform.
They deliberately used secure
communication and encryption to evade the monitoring.” The NIA said in
its charge sheet that all the accused persons were members of a
terrorist gang who had the knowledge of the conspiracy.
