Mumbai, Mar 20 (PTI) A special NIA court here on Friday issued a proclamation order against three wanted accused in the 2014 ISIS link case.
Areeb Majeed, who had allegedly joined terrorist outfit ISIS in Iraq, is the only arrested accused in the case. He is facing various charges of terrorism.
Allowing the National Investigation Agency’s plea, special judge Chakor Baviskar issued a proclamation against three wanted accused- Fahad Shaikh, Shaheen Tanki and Aman Tandel, almost 12 years after they allegedly left India to join ISIS.
The trio have been asked to appear before the court within a month, failing which they would be declared as proclaimed offenders.
Once an accused is declared a proclaimed offender, the agency would be able to confiscate his or her properties in the country.
As per the probe agency, these four engineering students had flown to Baghdad on May 23, 2014, with a group of 22 pilgrims to visit religious shrines in Iraq.
After returning to India, other pilgrims told police that Areeb, Fahad, Aman and Shaheen had gone to Fallujah.
On August 26, 2014, Tanki had called up Areeb’s family and told them that their son had become a ‘martyr’ while fighting for ISIS in Syria. PTI AVI BNM
