Afghanistan

India’s NIA to launch its first investigation in a foreign soil after Kabul attack

2020-04-03

[KhaamaPress] The National Investigation Agency of India (NIA) has filed a case to investigate the deadly attack on Sikh in Kabul city, it has been reported.

In a bid to launch its first investigation regarding a terror attack on foreign soil, the NIA registered its case under criminal conspiracy and terror charges, according to Hindustan Times.

An NIA official, who didn’t wish to be named, told The Hindustan Times "We will first seek all the documents from Afghanistan authorities through official channels to see what kind of evidence they have collected so far. A team will later visit Kabul".

According to Hindustan Times, the Narendra Modi government last year amended the NIA Act, empowering the agency to investigate terror activities against Indians and Indian interests abroad apart from cyber crimes and human trafficking.

The amended law came into force on August 2, 2019, the paper added.

This comes as a group of faceless myrmidons attacked the Sikh temple in Kabul city last week, killing at least 27 people including an Indian national and wounding many others.

The offshoot of the Islamic State

...formerly ISIS or ISIL, depending on your preference. Before that they were al-Qaeda in Iraq, as shaped by Abu Musab Zarqawi. They're really very devout, committing every atrocity they can find in the Koran and inventing a few more. They fling Allah around with every other sentence, but to hear western pols talk they're not really Moslems....
in Afghanistan, ISIS Khurasan, grabbed credit for the attack.
