The investigations to the killing of Kanhaiya Lal have revealed an international link to the killers.
According to the probe, accused Ghous Mohammed visited Karachi on the call of the functionaries of Dawat-e-Islami in 2014 where he stayed for 40 days. The other accused Riyaz Attari allegedly tried to infiltrate into the minority wing of Rajasthan BJP and attempted to get close to a BJP Minority Morcha member and a BJP worker to target them.
The police interrogations of the two killers revealed that they had no remorse for the crime to which they had confessed.
The security agencies are probing the ramifications of the indoctrination by the Karachi-based DeI.
Attari, a follower of Dawat leader Illyas Attari Quadri, had crafted the knives used to kill the tailor.
