The National Investigation Agency (NIA)) on Friday took over a case of propagation of Jihadi terrorism and re-registered a case.
The case is related to Bangladeshi nationals SK Shabbir, Joseph and others, who had illegally entered India and are sympathizers of a terrorist organization.
According to NIA, they had hatched a conspiracy along with their unknown associates to wage war by recruiting, motivating vulnerable Muslim youth against the Government of India as well as neighbouring Bangladesh to establish a 'Caliphate', by removing democratically elected government by means of criminal force.
