Gujarat ATS Busts AQIS Module, Arrests Four
Gujarat's Anti-Terrorism Squad (ATS) caught four people they think are part of a bad group called Al-Qaeda in the Indian Subcontinent (AQIS).
This group is suspected of planning bad things.
The police are keeping the details secret for now, but they plan to share more later.
The people arrested were talking to AQIS members, which made the police concerned.
It's not the first time this has happened in Gujarat.
In 2023, four people from Bangladesh were also arrested for similar reasons.
Gujarat ATS arrested four individuals allegedly linked to Al-Qaeda in the Indian Subcontinent (AQIS).
The arrests were part of a covert operation targeting a suspected terror module.
ATS DIG Sunil Joshi will provide a detailed press briefing with more information.
The arrested men were in direct contact with AQIS operatives.
This is not the first AQIS link in Gujarat; four Bangladeshis were arrested in 2023.
