Jamshedpur, Dec 18: Two Islamic radicals have been picked up by a team of NIA from the Jugsalai locality of the steel city past midnight.
Those in the NIA custody are residents of Gaurishankar Road in Jugsalai.
The duo have been kept at the Circuit House in Bistupur where they are being grilled by the investigating agency’s sleuths.
Indulged in fund-raising, radicalising youths for terror outfit
Though the visiting NIA officials here in Jamshedpur are not revealing anything to the media, but knowledgeable sources pointed out that both the suspects used to allegedly work for some terrorist organisation and were indulged in fund-raising activity for the terrorist outfit from the steel city.

The sources said both the suspected terrorists were also allegedly indulged in trying to radicalise several local youths.
Earlier also terrorists have been caught from Jamshedpur
It may be mentioned here that it is not the first time that any Islamic terrorist has been caught by the intelligence agency. On earlier occasions too terrorists were arrested from various locations including Azadnagar, Mango and Dhatkidih, but it was for the first time that such elements have been caught from the Jugsalai locality.
What is significant is that the local police have never been able to nab such radicals and on all occasions the intelligence agencies or the police from Delhi or West Bengal had arrested them having carried out raids here.
