ISIS Terror Module In India: The probe agencies, including the National Investigation Agency (NIA) and the Delhi Police Special Cell busted two pan-India ISIS modules, allegedly planning targeted killings and to attack religious sites in a week. NDTV reported that the investigation agencies have recovered weapons, chemical bomb-making materials and other incriminating materials.

The digital evidence found after raids suggests these modules have links to Pakistani terrorists. The probe found that the two modules had links to the Khilafat model and the Ghazwa-e-Hind agenda.

The Second Terror Module - Vizianagaram ISIS Terror Conspiracy

The second terror module was being operated from Andhra Pradesh, which spread in several states, including Telangana, Tamil Nadu, Jharkhand, Uttar Pradesh, Bihar, Maharashtra, and Delhi.

The probe agency searched multiple locations across eight states in the Vizianagaram (Andhra Pradesh) ISIS case linked to the conspiracy to spread terror through the use of improvised explosive devices, backed by radicalisation and recruitment of vulnerable youth through social media platforms.

The simultaneous searches were planned by the NIA in coordination with Andhra Pradesh Police and meticulously carried out in the states of Andhra Pradesh, Telangana, Tamil Nadu, Jharkhand, Uttar Pradesh, Bihar, Maharashtra, and Delhi, a statement issued by the probe agency said.

The searches, which marked a significant step by the NIA towards dismantling the terror networks in India, came less than a month after the agency arrested a key accused in the Vizianagaram ISIS terror conspiracy case.

Arif Husain alias Abu Talib was nabbed on August 27, 2025 while he was attempting to flee to Riyadh, Saudi Arabia. Investigations indicated he had conspired with a co-accused to arrange for supply of weapons through the Nepal border, the statement said.

The NIA has been investigating the case, registered initially by the police at Vizianagaram following the arrest of another accused Siraj-ur-Rahman, since July 2025. The police had arrested Siraj after he was found in possession of chemical substances suspected to be used in the fabrication of IEDs. During questioning, Siraj revealed a conspiracy to wage war against the government of India.
