Bengaluru's Rameshwaram cafe blast: 2 suspects chargesheeted in another terror case

BENGALURU: The National Investigation Agency (NIA) on Monday chargesheeted two more terror suspects in Karnataka Al-Hind IS module case, relating to a terror conspiracy involving targeted killings and other jihadi activities.
The accused are Abdul Matheen Taha and Mussavir Hussain Shazib, both residents of Thirthahalli in Shivamogga district, and prime suspects in the March 1 Rameshwaram cafe blast.
According to NIA, Taha and Shazib were involved in a larger conspiracy of IS and had been absconding until they were arrested on April 12 for alleged role in the cafe blast.
In its second supplementary chargesheet filed in the conspiracy case, NIA charged the duo under various sections of IPC and UA(P) Act. So far, 18 accused have been chargesheeted in the case which NIA took over from Bengaluru police on January 23, 2020.
NIA probe revealed Taha radicalised and recruited Mussavir Hussain Shazib and others. In 2018, Taha was introduced to online handler Bhai alias Laptop Bhai and he went on to introduce Bhai to Mehaboob Pasha, who had formed the Al-Hind Trust in collaboration with his family members in Gurupanapallaya.
