Bengaluru hideout busted: Jharkhand woman linked to terror cells nabbed from Hebbal; Gujarat ATS alleges radical posts, foreign ties

BENGALURU: A 30-year-old woman, allegedly maintaining contact with terror modules and sharing posts related to radicalisation, was arrested by the Gujarat Anti-Terrorism Squad (ATS) from her rented residence at Manorayanapalya in Hebbal on Tuesday.

Sources said ATS officers tracking people in contact with terror modules on social media and sharing posts related to radicalisation, received information about the activities of Shama Parveen, a native of Jharkhand.

Shama was staying with her younger brother, who is working in the city, for the past three years.

She is single and unemployed. She used to share posts related to radicalisation, download speeches, and upload them on her Instagram account, asking people to support them.

She was allegedly in contact with the terror module and is considered a sympathiser of banned outfits. She was following a few persons arrested by the ATS in other states recently.

Following her arrest, the ATS personnel produced her in a local court, and obtained a transit warrant.
