The National Investigation Agency (NIA) raided multiple locations in six states on September 15, 2023, in connection with the ISIS Jharkhand module case. The raids were conducted in Jharkhand, Bihar, West Bengal, Uttar Pradesh, Delhi, and Maharashtra.
The NIA said that the raids were conducted to “gather more evidence and unearth the conspiracy hatched by the accused persons.” The agency also said that it had seized “incriminating documents” during the raids.
The ISIS Jharkhand module case was unearthed in June 2023, when the NIA arrested five people from Jharkhand. The accused were allegedly planning to carry out terrorist attacks in India.
The NIA is continuing its investigation into the case.
