A month ago, 32-year-old Noor had attempted suicide by consuming rat poison. Though he was rushed to a local hospital, Noor was shifted to the KEM after his condition deteriorated.
An ATS officer said, &ldquo;Wajid and Noor are part of the Malwani module. Now that both are in our custody, we&rsquo;ll restart our investigation. In January, Noor attempted suicide before we could arrest him so we decided not to arrest Wajid as well. His suicide bid dealt a big blow to our future course of action. Moreover, Noor claimed the ATS was harassing him.&rdquo;
Taken into custody ATS officials from the Kalachowkie unit visited KEM Hospital two days ago with Noor&rsquo;s wife Rahimunnisa and helped her secure his discharge. Noor&rsquo;s family have vacated their Malwani home and have moved to an undisclosed location which only the ATS is aware of. The officers have also instructed the family against speaking to the media.
An officer said, &ldquo;Wajid and Noor revealed several contacts and information on the Malwani module. We even got fresh contact numbers from their new SIMs, which helped us unearth and arrest ISIS connections in India. Superiors will decide whether to arrest Wajid and Noor or use them as prime witnesses in the case.&rdquo;
