The Maharashtra Anti-Terrorism Squad (ATS) on Friday questioned 112 people across the state as part of a coordinated operation probing their alleged links with Pakistan-based gangster Shahzad Bhatti, officials said.
Teams from all 14 ATS units simultaneously carried out the operation on Friday morning, during which the identified individuals were questioned to verify the nature of their alleged association with Bhatti and gather further evidence, an ATS official said.
Bhatti is suspected of using social media platforms to allegedly influence youths towards anti-national activities, the official said.
The investigation is underway, and further details are awaited, the official added.
