A sessions court in Delhi on April 3, ordered framing of charges against Indian Mujahideen’s (IM) co-founder Yasin Bhatkal and several of its operatives in a case of conspiring to wage war against India in 2012, noting that he was planning to plant a nuclear bomb in Surat District in Gujarat after evacuating Muslims, reports India Today. The charges were framed under the Indian Penal Code (IPC) and Unlawful Activities Prevention Act (UAPA) years after the National Investigation Agency (NIA) filed the case in 2012 against suspected IM members for undertaking recruitment for terrorist activities in India with support from Pakistan-based associates. Additional Sessions Judge Shailender Malik observed that the digital data extracted from the devices seized from Bhatkal showed several video clips of jihadi literature including writings, justifying killing of non-Muslims in the name of jihad. Thereby, the court said there was enough evidence to put the accused on trial.
