"Raezuddin and his aides were involved in anti-national activities for a long time. They came on the radar of the intelligence and Raezuddin was finally arrested by us," the source said. An FIR in this respect was lodged with the Special Cell of the Delhi Police. 

The source said that the militant groups of Rohingyas are working against India and they are sending illegal Rohingyas into India with an intention to create unrest and chaos across the nation.
