Dabholkar's alleged killer, others were indoctrinated via treks to forts like Raigad, exhibitions on ancient arms, and dubious lectures on Mughal history in Aurangabad, Jalna, Pune, and Ahmednagar

Sources said the arrested accused told them they would go to treks organised at various forts, such as Sinhagad or Raigad to look for potential recruits. File pic
A right-wing organisation was recruiting and radicalising youths into its fold through a cocktail of finding shared interests and feeding one-sided history, the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) has found out through Sachin Prakashrao Andure, who was arrested as a suspect in the murder of rationalist Dr Narendra Dabholkar. Andure has also revealed that he and the three other right-wing sympathisers, who were recently held from Nalasopara and Pune, were radicalised over a period of five to six years.
Following his arrest last Saturday, Andure laid bare the modus operandi used by the right wing organisation he belongs to, the name of which CBI has declined to reveal right now, to recruit members.
