Following the arrest of six people by Delhi Police on Tuesday who were part of an ISI-backed terror module in Pakistan, a probe into the matter has now revealed that the suspected terrorists were trained under a Major or Lieutenant-rank Army officer named Ghazi, news agency ANI reported.

Two of the six captured men, Osama alias Sami (22) and Zeeshan Qamar (28), told police that they were taken to Pakistan on boats, and reached near Gwadar port in the country after further short sea-journeys. After that, they were taken to a farmhouse in Sindh province where three Pakistani nationals were present. Two of them, Jabbar and Hamza, were from the country’s army unit. People familiar with the development told ANI that Hamza and Jabbar were subordinates of Ghazi.

Zeeshan and Osama told police that they were imparted training by the subordinates of Ghazi. They added that Hamza used to wear civilian robes but was widely respected in the training camp, according to ANI. The accused along with 15-16 Bengali-speaking individuals received training on making bombs and Improvised Explosive Devices (IEDs), and also committing arson with everyday items. Osama and Zeeshan were also trained in handling and using small firearms and AK-47s. The training lasted for 15 days, the ANI report added.

Besides Zeeshan and Osama, Delhi Police on Tuesday held four others – Jaan Mohammad Shaikh (47), Moolchand alias Saaju (47), Mohamed Abu Bakr (23), and Mohammed Amir Javed (31) – as identified by special commissioner of police (special cell) Neeraj Thakur.
