The Hyderabad city police, in a major operation to thwart proposed terrorist attacks in the city, on Sunday arrested a person who is an accused in past terrorist incidents and his two fresh recruits.
The police also seized a consignment of four grenades from the Malakpet residence of Abdul Zahed, who reportedly revived his contacts with Pakistani ISI conduits to carry out sensational terror attacks in Hyderabad.
“Abdul Zahed in his confession has revealed that Farhatulla Ghori, Abu Hamzala and Majeed revived their contacts with him and they have motivated and financed him to recruit and carry out terror attacks in Hyderabad again. At the behest of Pakistan-based handlers, Zahed recruited Samiuddin and Maaz Hasan,” the police stated.
