Kolkata, Dec 22 (PTI) A suspected member of a militant outfit in Kashmir valley was arrested from West Bengal’s South 24 Parganas district on Sunday, a police officer said.<\/p>\n
Javed Munshi, suspected to be a member of the outlawed ‘Tehreek e Mujahideen’ outfit in Kashmir Valley was picked from near Canning Hospital by a joint team of Jammu and Kashmir Police and Bengal Police, the officer said.<\/p>\n
Javed, who claimed to have visited the residence of a relative in the Canning town for personal reasons, had been allegedly involved in subversive activities in the valley and was wanted by the Jammu and Kashmir Police for a long time, he said.<\/p>\n
The ‘Tehreek e Mujahideen’ is controlled from Pakistan having contacts with other militant outfits in the valley, Pakistan and Bangladesh, the officer said. The relatives of Javed said though he is a resident of Srinagar, they were not aware of his links with any terror outfit and if the charges are found to be true law should take its own course.<\/p>\n
The police officer said the arrested man will be produced at Alipore court for transit remand soon.<\/p>\n
The arrest followed the recent arrests of eight suspected members of terrorist outfit Ansar-al-Islam Bangladesh, who were planning to target the ‘Chicken\u2019s Neck’ connecting West Bengal’s Siliguri with the northeastern states. Two of the eight arrested were from Murshidabad district and part of a group of eight people apprehended by Bengal, Kerala and Assam police. (PTI)<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
