Fasih Mohammed detained in Riyadh, may be deported soon
Early life
Mehmood, originally from Bihar's Madhubani district, had moved to Saudi Arabia in 2007 after obtaining his bachelor of arts degree in technology from a college in the coastal Karnataka town of Bhatkal. He is an engineer by training.
Militancy
According to his family, he knew Karachi based jihadist, Riyaz Ismail Shahbandri, one of the Indian Mujahideen's three top commanders, as a student, but denies he had any knowledge of or association with terrorist activities.
Delhi Police sources claimed that Fasih Mahmood was one of the five men who transformed the Students Islamic Movement of India (Simi), a radical student body into a deadly Indian Mujahideen (IM).
Some of the suspects of 2010 Bangalore stadium bombing were later arrested from Darbhanga, Bihar state. Based on the their statements given to the local police, the Central Bureau of Investigation was asked to seek an Interpol Red-corner notice for the arrest of Saudi Arabia based engineer Fasih Mahmood, who had been sought by India for his alleged role in the bomb attacks at the cricket stadium. He was arrested in Saudi Arabia in May 2012.
Arrest
He was deported from Saudi Arabia and was arrested by Delhi police on 22 October 2012. He is currently in police custody.
