2 Minors in Chhattisgarh held for sending sensitive maps, receiving terror training from ISIS handlers

Raipur (The Uttam Hindu): Minors from Chhattisgarh have now become the target of the dreaded terrorist organization ISIS. In a major action, the state's Anti-Terrorism Squad (ATS) has detained two minor students from Raipur and Bhilai, who were in direct contact with foreign handlers. These students, studying in class 10th and 11th, were being brainwashed by showing them the glamour of violence. The ATS investigation has revealed that they were being lured through gaming chat rooms and secret Instagram groups and were being prepared for terrorist activities.

When the ATS began investigating their chat logs and digital content, a horrifying picture emerged. The handlers were providing high-tech training to these children to incorporate them into a "digital module." They were being taught technical tools like the dark web, the TOR browser, creating fake IP addresses, and VPNs to conceal their digital identities. The most dangerous twist in the case came when, on the handlers' demand, these minors sent them clippings of maps related to "Operation Sindoor." The impact of the brainwashing was so profound that these children were even ready to take up arms.

The ATS uncovered this entire network through human surveillance and cyber tracking. The backgrounds of the arrested teenagers are shocking; one's father is a CRPF soldier, while the other's father is an auto driver. Given the gravity of the case, the ATS has registered an FIR under the UAPA, 1967. Currently, both minors are in ATS custody, and four other minors from Bhilai are also being interrogated to uncover the roots of this network.
