It is believed they used multiple mobile numbers due to their alleged involvement in suspicious activities. Nayeem Abdullah and Faraz had exchanged more than 225 books.
ATS sources revealed that the books contained radical, extremist 'jihadi' content, with the majority in PDF format.
Interrogation and analysis of seized digital material revealed that Nayeem was an avid reader.
He used to provide books and other material to radicalise Faraz. He had also visited Bhopal in 2025 and stayed at Faraz's residence.
According to the ATS, both were engaged in anti-national activities provoked by a Pakistani handler. The suspects arrested in the case are currently in judicial custody.
The Pakistani handler also allegedly sent books and other written material to the suspects.
The ATS claimed that links have been established between Mohammad Faraz (alias Khalid Saifullah) and members of banned organisations such as SIMI and the Popular Front of India (PFI).
