Hyderabad: Nearly a month after an alleged
ISIS suspect was arrested by the National Investigation Agency (
NIA), the officials on Sunday checked an apartment in the city where the suspect took shelter.
Sources said the NIA team, along with Telangana police's Counter Investigation Cell, went to Saidabad where Rizwan Abdul resided in an apartment. Rizwan Abdul stayed in Hyderabad while he was on the run from the police.
Officials came to conduct a scene recreation.
Before he was caught, Rizwan was one of the wanted terror suspects for the NIA. The officials had also announced a reward of 3 lakh for sharing information about him.
It was in the month of August that Rizwan was caught by the Delhi police, who later transferred the case to the NIA. He is accused of conspiring with at least three other suspects in the Pune module to carry out subversive activities.
Rizwan is a resident of Pune, but he stayed in an apartment in Hyderabad for six months on the advice of his alleged handler, who is in Pakistan.
