New Delhi, July 14 (IANS) The five persons arrested in Patna for indulging in anti-national activities following raids in the Phulwari Sharif area, which also led to the recovery of several incriminating documents, including PFI's 'Mission 2047', allegedly had Prime Minister Narendra Modi on their radar, the ongoing probe by Bihar police indicated.
Patna Police have arrested Athar Parvez and Mohammed Jalaluddin -- a retired sub-inspector from Jharkhand -- from the Phulwari Sharif area. Later, three more individuals -- Margoob Danish, Arman Malik and Shabbir -- were arrested.
They were allegedly running a terror module and were engaged in brainwashing the Muslim youth, the police said.
Parvez is said to be a member of the banned Students' Islamic Movement of India (SIMI), who was providing training to the youth.
Manzar, Athar's brother, had been arrested earlier in connection with the 2013 Gandhi Maidan bomb blast during then Prime Ministerial candidate Narendra Modi's 'Hunkar' rally.
Mohammed Jalaluddin is also said to be a member of SIMI. The police have claimed that the accused tried to execute a terror strike during Modi's rally.
The police have recovered sensational documents from Jalaluddin and Parvez in which it has been written that they will make India an Islamic state by 2047.
On the pretext of providing physical training to the youth, the accused were brainwashing them in Patna. They were allegedly provoking Muslim youth against the Hindus.
Meanwhile, sources in the know of things said the NIA is also closely monitoring the matter, and has launched a parallel probe.
Though the NIA has not made any comment, there are possibilities that the case might be transferred to the probe agency in the coming days.
The PFI, however, said that it never published any objectionable documents and said that things were being planted.
