NEW DELHI: Union Minister Hansraj Ahir today said it was too early to know which terrorist outfit slain terror suspect Saifullah belonged to, amid suspicion that he was influenced by an ISIS module.

Saifullah, who is suspected to be linked with the blast in the Bhopal-Ujjain train, was killed in an encounter in Uttar Pradesh yesterday.

“We have asked for the report. We have not received the final report and full information has not yet come. What can be said from the documents and other material is that he was a terrorist.

“We will get to know who he was linked with after we get the final report,” Ahir, who is Minister of State for Home Affairs, told reporters outside Parliament. (AGENCIES)
