Ten alleged members of Indian Mujahideen who were arrested this year from Rajasthan and Jharkhand were today booked for waging war against the country as police filed a charge-sheet against them in the court of Additional Chief Judicial Magistrate here.
The ACJM court transferred the case to District and Sessions Court where the case will be heard from October 1.
Anti-Terrorist Squad of Rajasthan Police filed the charge sheet with operative part running into 97 pages and comprising a list of 340 documents.
After receiving the charge sheet, Magistrate Pawan Agarwal referred the case to the District and Sessions Court.
The ATS had arrested the terror suspects in March-April this year.
Seven of the accused -- Mohd Sakib Ansari (23), Barkat Ali (28), Adil Ansari (23), Ashraf Ali (40), Mashraf Iqbal (32), Mohd Jawed (28) and Zaheer Haq (30) -- were nabbed from different parts of Jodhpur.
Of the remaining three, Mohd Maroof (23) was picked up from Jaipur, Mohd Ammar Yassar (22) from Dhanbad and Mohd Waqar Azhar alias Haneef alias Mohsin (21) from Pali.
"All the suspects are charged under Sections 4, 5, 6 of the Explosive Substances Act 1908 and Sections 16, 17, 18, 18A,, 18B, 19, 20, 23, 38 of the Unlawful Activities (Prevention) Act 1967 and Sections 120 B, 121, 121A, 122 of IPC," said a defence counsel.
