The NIA had filed a case on January 10 last year and another accused Harpal Singh charging sections 3 & 25 of the Arms Act, 1959, Section 135 and 37 of the Maharashtra Police Act, 1951 and Section 20 of the Unlawful activities Act, 1967.

The NIA release added, “Pro-Khalistani posts related to a proscribed outfit named Babbar Khalsa International (BKI) were also put up to motivate like-minded Sikh youths and others to join the Khalistani movement.”

The arrest of Nijjar is a week after the NIA had sentenced and convicted an engineer from Tamil Nadu Mohammed Naseer Packer with seven years of imprisonment for the Islamic State (ISIS) conspiracy case.
