Ashfaq Ahmed, an ISIS recruit from Kerala has sent an audio message for the first time.
In the message, Ashfaq states that he is in Khilafat. "I am speaking from Khilafat. But the areas controlled by Khilafat is facing some issues," he said.
Here's a snapshot of the message sent by him.
He is one of the natives from Padanna in Kasargod who went missing in August 2016. It was based on a complaint filed by his father that Mumbai police registered a case against Arshi Qureshi.
Arshi Qureshi was the guest relationship manager at Islamic Research Foundation of controversial televangelist Dr Zakir Naik. Police also booked three more persons based on the complaint, all of whom were later found to have links with the ISIS.
Police later booked Zakir Naik, after reports that he played a crucial role in ISIS recruitments from India.
