Tafazul Hussain Parimoo, a resident of Budgam district, was arrested in connection with the case related to Babu, the NIA spokesperson said.

He said Parimoo played a key role in supplying arms and ammunition to another accused named Tariq Mir, a former sarpanch of Maldera village of Shopian, who further passed them on to Hizbul terrorists in Shopian. — PTI
