The Uttar Pradesh Anti-Terror Squad (ATS) arrested today an IS suspect at the Mumbai International Airport. Identified as Abu Zaid, the suspect has been brought to Lucknow from Mumbai on a transit remand.
While in Dubai, Zaid is suspected to have run a network for IS involving youth from western Uttar Pradesh.
Zaid was found to be in touch with terror suspects who were earlier arrested by police in western UP as well.
This arrest follows that of five IS suspects from Kannur in Kerala, last week.

Introducing ElectionsHQ + 50 Ground Reports Project
The 2024 elections might seem easy to guess, but there are some important questions that shouldn't be missed.
Do freebies still sway voters? Do people prioritise infrastructure when voting? How will Punjab vote?
The answers to these questions provide great insights into where we, as a country, are headed in the years to come.
Swarajya is starting a project with an aim to do 50 solid ground stories and a smart commentary service on WhatsApp, a one-of-a-kind. We'd love your support during this election season.
