New Delhi, 1st September 2024: The Special Judge, NIA, Patiala House Complex, New Delhi, on Saturday sentenced three accused in the 2020 Khaja Moideen ISIS case, in which they had indiscriminately fired at police party in order to evade arrest.
All three accused, Khaja Moideen, Syed Ali Nawas and Abdul Samad, had been convicted by the court in the case RC-5/2020/NIA/DLI on 6th August 2024. They had been arrested on 9th January 2020 from Delhi and were in judicial custody since then.
