Later for six months he did apprenticeship with a company and in June 2015 he joined this job. He was not married. He is religious and used to read the Namaz regularly. He used to speak to me over telephone several times but never told me about his activities. It has never come to our notice that he was involved in any terror activities.”
He said, “A NIA official from Hyderabad called me up and told me my son was picked up for investigation.”

Abu Anas went on ‘vacation’ after December 25 and came back to TWG and told us that he was sick.
“He said he has stomach ulcers and he can’t continue his job. A week ago he met us and he left. He used to appear as a soft guy and was always on the laptop with headphones on. We never suspected him.”
Abdul Lateef, Vice President said, “We can’t believe it. It is shocking.”
