During the interrogation by the Special Cell, Naushad Ali, the terrorist who was arrested in the Jahangirpuri area on 12 January in Delhi made many important revelations.
According to the sources, Naushad Ali was in contact with Pakistani handlers, and twice he tried going to Pakistan through Nepal but failed.
Earlier on Thursday, Naushad Ali and his associate Jagjit Singh, alias Jagga, were arrested in the national capital.
Meanwhile, both the terrorist and his handler were in touch with the Harkat-ul Ansar outfit and the Hizbul Mujahideen, and from Pakistani handlers Asfaq and Suhail, he was receiving instructions.
“It was Arif who got Naushad to meet Suhail, another Pakistani terrorist. Suhail is also a member of the terrorist organization LeT, which is currently operating from Pakistan,” sources said.
“Suhail had prepared a plan to target some big leaders in Punjab,” sources stated.
During the probe, Naushad revealed he had met Nadeem, who is associated with the terrorist organization Harkat-ul-Ansar.
“After coming out of jail on parole, Nadeem had inducted Naushad into the Harkat-ul-Ansar organization to work together for Jihad,” sources stated.
Earlier in 2018, Naushad was released from jail after being imprisoned for murder for 25 years.
Moreover, in 2019, Naushad also went to Nepal twice to find a way to go from Nepal to Pakistan.
Sources further stated, “But the Nepali officer through whom he was getting his Nepali passport made, was arrested on charges of bribery. And he was not able to escape to Pakistan.”
However, ahead of Republic Day celebrations, security has been heightened for the event in the national capital.
