NIA carries out raids in five states in PFI conspiracy case; seizes incriminating materials
India TV NewsNIA raids: The National Investigation Agency on Sunday conducted a series of raids and searches across five states as part of its continued efforts to foil the Popular Front of India conspiracy to disturb the peace by driving a communal wedge among the people to destabilise the country, an official said. As per NIA investigations, PFI has been conspiring to radicalise gullible youth and provide them weapons training in a bid to further its violent anti-India agenda by fighting against certain sections of society. “NIA suspects several mid-rung PFI agents to be operating as master trainers who have been conducting Arms Training Camps across various states of the country for training its highly radicalised PFI cadres in the use of weapons, iron rods, swords and knives,” the official said. “Incriminating evidence was collected by the agency, leading to the arrest of several top PFI leaders, including over a dozen NEC members, following country-wide operations during September 2022,” the official said.
