A suspected ISIS terrorist, Azhar Danish, was arrested from the Islamnagar area of Ranchi in Jharkhand. He had a case registered against him in Delhi, based on which the Delhi Special Cell was on the lookout for him. He is being questioned by the Delhi Police.

Another suspect was arrested from Delhi, confirmed Delhi Police.

Meanwhile, on Tuesday, the Delhi Police Special Cell busted an espionage module linked to Pakistan's Inter-Services Intelligence (ISI) with the arrest of a 43-year-old man accused of supplying SIM cards that were later used by operatives across the border.
According to Delhi Police Special Cell, specific intelligence was received on August 28 about an individual associated with ISI handlers being present in Vijay Block, Laxmi Nagar. Acting swiftly, the team apprehended the suspect, identified as Prabhat Kumar Chaurasiya.
During sustained interrogation, Chaurasiya revealed that he had procured 16 SIM cards using his Aadhaar credentials and sent them to Nepal, out of which 11 were being operated on WhatsApp from Lahore, Bahawalpur and other parts of Pakistan by ISI operatives. These were allegedly being used for espionage and other anti-India activities.
Officials at the special cell said these SIMs were being used from across the border for espionage and other anti-India activities through the social media platform WhatsApp. A case was registered at PS Special Cell, Delhi, under Sections 61(2)/152 of the BNS.
Further investigation is in progress to trace his associates, identify the courier network, and apprehend the foreign handlers who orchestrated this espionage module. (ANI)
