10 arrested, 6 detained; arms, ammunition seized during raids
The National Investigation Agency (MA) on Wednesday arrested 10 alleged members of an Islamic State (I5)inspired module and detained six suspects in a joint operation with the Delhi police's Special Cell and the AntiTerrorist Squad of Uttar Pradesh.
The accused, from whom a huge stash of bombmaking material, weapons and a countrymade rocket launcher have been seized, were planning to target political leaders and security and government installations.
