MUMBAI, July 11 -- The Maharashtra Anti-Terrorism Squad (ATS) on Friday questioned 102 young men across the state for allegedly being in touch with Pakistan-based gangster Shahzad Bhatti via social media. Police said Bhatti and his aides were attempting to radicalise Indian youths by using hate speeches and doctored videos, and also by promising them money. "We formed 58 teams to carry out a state-wide operation regarding people in touch with Bhatti or his aides, such as Abid Jaat, Ajmal Gujjar, Hammad Memon, Rana Hunnain and Ashraf Alam. Bhatti has been found contacting youths via social media, promising them money or brainwashing them with hate speeches and asking them to carry out anti-national activities," said an ATS officer. The officer said Pakistani gangsters lure Indian men through fake social media profiles, with photographs of young women, to glean information and videos of specific spots. They later try to persuade the young men to get involved in dealing in weapons and narcotics. "We questioned the youths and de-radicalised them. We informed their parents and asked them to keep an eye on the youths," said the ATS officer. Shahzad Bhatti, the officer said, is the brain behind the Tehreek-e-Taliban Hindustan, a terror outfit. He was also linked to the Lawrence Bishnoi gang and had allegedly helped shelter an accused involved in NCP leader Baba Siddique's murder....
