Delhi Police on Friday said that Mohsinh Abrahim, who was arrested for allegedly having links with the ISIS, was part of the Roorkee module of the terror outfit and was planning to go to Syria.

Special Commissioner of Police of the Delhi Police's Special Cell Arvind Deep told ANI that Abrahim would be produced before the court later today.

"He was part of Roorkee module and was planning to go to Syria. His age is around 26 years and he is a resident of Malad West, Mumbai," Deep said.

The special cell of the Delhi Police, which arrested Abrahim yesterday, had also recovered Rs. 85, 000 from 23-year-old.

Last week, the Delhi Police had arrested Abrahim, who hails from Jammu and Kashmir's Ganderbal district, for being an alleged sympathiser of the ISIS.

Last month, the National investigation Agency (NIA) had arrested 14 youth suspected of having links with the ISIS from different parts of the country.
