ISIS module: Court extends NIA custody of accused by seven days

NEW DELHI: A Delhi court on Friday extended by seven days the NIA remand of a man arrested from UP in connection with its probe against an ISIS-inspired group for allegedly planning suicide attacks and serial blasts targeting politicians and Government installations in Delhi and other parts of north India.

Special Judge Rakesh Syal allowed the NIA’s plea for further remand during in-chamber proceedings after 24-year-old Muhammed Absar was produced in court on expiry of his six-day custodial interrogation, his advocate Mohammed Noorullah said.

The NIA had arrested 12 men, including a ‘mufti’ from Amroha, also in western Uttar Pradesh, who it said were planning suicide attacks and serial blasts targeting politicians and Government installations in Delhi and other parts of north India. (AGENCIES)
