NIA also named Jasir Bilal Wani as an accomplice, accusing him of researching methods to construct a rocket using YouTube and ChatGPT and getting drones from Nabi.
The agency alleged that since 2022, Nabi had been trying to bring back the Ansar Ghazwat-ul-Hind (AGuH) group by recruiting followers and holding secret meetings.
