Kolkata: The National Investigative Agency (NIA) assisted by the National Security Guard (NSG) commandos searched the premises of Jamat Sheikh, father-in-law of wanted terrorist Sheikh Yusuf in Nawpara Village of Mangalkot area in Burdwan on Saturday.
Sheikh Yusuf is a teacher at the Simulia Madarasa- believed to be a training centre for the terrorists. Yusuf is one of the prime suspects of the Burdwan terror network and is currently absconding. The Madrasa located 40 kms from the blast site, acted as the root of the terror module operating out of Burdwan and its neighbouring district.
Almost all the identified terror operatives, whether dead, arrested or absconding, have been found to have close links with this Madrasa - which investigators believe acted as a training center for the terrorists.
NSG commandos recovered two mobile phones, SIM cards, jihadi literature and cables from Jamat's house. The search operation lasted for about two hours.
NSG commandos had earlier recovered a huge cache of sophisticated explosives from other terror hideouts in Burdwan.
