A joint team of the Maharashtra ATS and the Kerala Police have arrested a suspected ISIS sympathiser Rizwan Khan from Thane in Maharashtra. This is the second arrest in the past few days by the same team.
The Kerala Police has launched a probe after 21 persons from the state went missing. These people are suspected to have joined the ISIS.
During the investigation one person complained that Zakir Naik through his aide Arshi Qureshi had radicalised his sister who along with her husband is suspected to have joined the ISIS.
Rizwan Khan's arrest is connected to the same case. His name cropped up during the investigation, an officer with the Kerala Police said.
According to police sourcces, Rizwan was not directly associated with Islamic Research Foundation (IRF) nor was he employed there but investigators suggest there is an indirect IRF connect.
Investigations have revealed that Arshi Qureshi, the first accused, who was employed with IRF, used to refer people to Rizwan for documentary purposes.
