Terror Suspect Arrested From Pune During Maharashtra ATS Raids In Kondwa Area

Pune: In a major breakthrough, the Maharashtra Anti-Terrorist Squad (ATS) arrested a terror suspect from Pune on Sunday, averting a major terror incident. The accused, identified as Zuber Hungarkar, is being interrogated by the ATS and other intelligence agencies. The police are now trying to ascertain information regarding the terror suspect's connections and networks in India.

According to the police, a few days ago, the Maharashtra ATS had conducted a massive raid in the Kondwa area of Pune. As per the police officials, Zuber was arrested based on various evidence linking him with the suspected terrorists and terror-linked groups.

ZuberHungarkar, a software engineer, is alleged to have links with banned organisations, including Al-Qaeda, and is accused of radicalising youth. The ATS had conducted raids in the Kondhwa area earlier this month, recovering incriminating materials and electronic devices that pointed to a larger terror network.

The suspect is being interrogated by the ATS and other intelligence agencies to determine his contacts and associates within India. The law enforcement agencies have registered a case against Hungarkar under the Unlawful Activities (Prevention) Act (UAPA), and he has been remanded to police custody until November 4.

The arrest was part of an investigation into terror activities in Pune, with the ATS having previously detained other suspects linked to ISIS. 

Further details regarding the arrest of the terror suspect are awaited.
