Mouinudheen, wanted by the NIA, arrived at the Indira Gandhi international Airport in New Delhi on February 14 from Abu Dhabi in UAE, said NIA in a statement.

The 25-year-old, a resident of Kasaragod, was summoned for questioning at the agency’s headquarters on Tuesday, the NIA said.

“During examination, he admitted to his involvement in the conspiracy and therefore, he has been arrested at NIA Headquarters,” it said.

The NIA said the case relates to a terror module in which a group of youths from Kerala, including some members based in the Middle East, hatched conspiracy under instructions from their online IS handlers. It said that on October 2, 2016, based on intelligence inputs, five accused associated with this terror module, were arrested from Kanakmala Hill in Kannur district, Kerala and another associate was arrested from Kozhikode the same day.

“Based on their revelation, it was established that Mouinudheen was a key figure in the module, which was actively planning various aspects of terrorist plot, on a telegram group,” the NIA said.

I could not understand why these youths are putting their life in risk and bring bad name to their parents plus religion. IS is a jewish organisation which works on bringing bad name to islam and Muslims. this group huge amount of money plus girls/liquors to youth and these fools get attracted to it. You will get what you sow and this what happens with these misguided youth. If we follow Devil we will definitely lose this world and the life after death.
