Earlier today, UP DGP OP Singh had informed in a press conference that the three suspects and the two killers were all radicalised and they had planned Tiwari's murder.
UP DGP OP Singh claimed that prima facie, the murderers of Kamlesh Tiwari appeared to have been 'radicalized by the comment he made' on Prophet Muhammad in 2015.
Only two days before his murder, Kamlesh Tiwari had taken to Facebook to speak about how Uttar Pradesh Intelligence Bureau (UP IB) thought that he was a 'target for Jihadis'.
Gujarat ATS had arrested three persons named Faizan Pathan, Khurshid Ahmed Pathan and a Maulvi named Mohsin Sheikh in connection with the murders. Khurshid is also stated to be a computer expert.
Uttar Pradesh ATS has confirmed that Maulana Anwar-ul-Haq and Mohammed Mufti Naeem Kazmi have been detained and are being interrogated for their role in the murder of Kamlesh Tiwari
