FBI team in Kolkata to quiz ISIS suspect, held in West Bengal

Kolkata, Dec 8 (IBNS): A team of the United States' domestic Intelligence and security service, Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI), came to Kolkata on Thursday afternoon to interrogate a ISIS suspect, held in West Bengal.

Md. Masiruddin alias Mussa, who was nabbed from Burdwan in July earlier and was in judicial custody, was produced in a city court on Thursday and sent to National Investigation Agency (NIA) custody for two days.

"As Mussa had direct links with top ISIS leaders of India and Middle-East, FBI is interrogating him to know more about the ISIS module in the World," an NIA source told IBNS.

Bangladesh's intelligence agency- Rapid Action Bangladesh (RAB)- earlier grilled Mussa in Kolkata as he also had connection with Bangladesh-based militant group Jamaat Ul Mujahideen Bangladesh (JMB).
