Al-Qaeda Terrorists Were Arrested Earlier
Earlier this year, Gujarat ATS arrested five Al-Qaeda in the Indian Subcontinent (AQIS) terrorists, including a woman from Bengaluru who was allegedly running an online terror module and had links to Pakistani contacts.
The ATS had arrested a 30-year-old woman, Sama Parveen, from Bengaluru for her alleged links with the terrorist organization Al-Qaeda. According to Gujarat ATS Deputy Inspector General of Police (DIG) Sunil Joshi, the woman was apprehended in connection with Al-Qaeda. Her arrest followed the earlier detention of four other individuals linked to the same case.
Before this, on July 23, the ATS arrested four terrorists with alleged links to Al-Qaeda in the Indian Subcontinent (AQIS). The arrested accused were identified as Mohd Faiq from Delhi, Mohd Fardeen from Ahmedabad, Seifullah Kureshi from Modasa in Aravalli, and Zeeshan Ali from Noida, Uttar Pradesh.
Confirming the arrests, Gujarat ATS DIG Sunil Joshi said that all four suspects had been under surveillance for activities suspected to be connected to AQIS, a proscribed terror outfit affiliated with Al-Qaeda.
