NIA Raids 10 Locations Across 5 States in Al-Qaeda Gujarat Terror Case
Imagine the police, called the NIA, are trying to stop bad people who want to harm the country.
Recently, they searched 10 houses in different parts of India because they think some people from Bangladesh secretly came into India with fake papers to do bad things for a group called Al-Qaeda.
The NIA found phones and papers during the searches that they think are important clues.
They are going to check these clues very carefully.
This investigation started last year, and they have identified four specific people from Bangladesh who they believe are involved.
The NIA is working hard to make sure everyone is safe from these kinds of plots.
The NIA conducted searches at 10 locations across five states in an Al-Qaeda Gujarat terror conspiracy case.
The raids targeted premises linked to suspects and associates in West Bengal, Tripura, Meghalaya, Haryana, and Gujarat.
The agency seized several digital devices and incriminating documents, which are sent for forensic analysis.
The case involves four Bangladeshi nationals who allegedly infiltrated India using forged documents.
The NIA originally registered the case in June 2023 under the Unlawful Activities (Prevention) Act and other laws.
