Acting on precise intelligence, NIA teams, supported by the Haryana Police, conducted a dawn raid at a residential location in Faridabad.

Sources close to the investigation revealed:

  • Logistical Support: The accused reportedly arranged for food, finances, and communication devices for the fugitive.

This arrest highlights the increasing strategic importance of Haryana’s NCR districts (like Faridabad and Gurugram) in national counter-terrorism operations. With improved coordination between the NIA and State Police, authorities are cracking down on “sleeper cells” and logistical hubs used by organized crime and terror syndicates.

The accused has been booked under relevant sections of the Unlawful Activities (Prevention) Act (UAPA) and will be produced before a special NIA court.
