Bengaluru, Feb 9: In a fresh update over IS suspect Najmul Huda, the family now claims that Huda almost a week back held a very brief telephonic conversation with the family which lasted not more than three minutes.

However the family, even as came into touch with alleged IS sympathiser over phone, is making full frontal effort to meet him in person with the help of a lawyer which they have hired after the arrest.

When asked the family on time span of conversation and excerpts of the talks, the family said "we spoke to him not more than 3 minutes, we were unable to speak much on the current condition of Huda."
