NIA earlier had chargesheeted 14 accused on March 24 under various sections of IPC, Arms Act, and Unlawful Activities (Prevention) Act and Yudhvir has been charged under the same case.
The case concerns a conspiracy hatched by members of criminal gangs and syndicates with bases in both India and overseas to raise funds and recruit young people to carry out terrorist attacks in Delhi and other regions of the nation.
Investigations by the NIA have thus far shown that the conspiracies were hatched in prisons across many states and carried out by a structured network of operatives based abroad. Further investigations into these cases are continuing as part of NIA's efforts to end the growing nexus between terrorists, gangsters, and drug smugglers, and to dismantle their funding and infrastructure, reported ANI.
