Video of ISIS operative nabbed in Gujarat, firing gun shot from roof-top goes viral

Surat:

A video clip showing a recently nabbed ISIS operative in Gujarat firing from a gun from the roof-top of a house has become viral.

ISIS operative Ubaid Mirza, an advocate by profession, was one of the two such terrorists nabbed by the Gujarat ATS on October 25 in connection with planning a deadly attack on a Synagogue in Khadia area of Ahmedabad. The other ISIS operative nabbed with him was Kasim Stimberwala, who had worked in a hospital in Ankaleshwar with which Rajyasabha MP and political secretary of Congress President Sonia Gandhi, Ahmed Patel was earlier associated as a trustee.

The 12 second video, which prima facie seems 9 to 10 months old, shows Ubaid standing on a roof-top at an unidentified place with a gun. He then fires a round in the air.

ATS, which has taken him on remand was investigating it and trying to ascertain whether it was a fun video or part of an illegal gun training later to be used for terror activities,’ an official said.
