The investigation agency would question him about those visits in a bid to find out if he had met with any ISI handler. We find it suspicious that he had sent his daughters to Bangladesh to study. There is no bar on sending children to Bangladesh to study, but looking at the nature of this particular case, we find the need to probe further, a source in the agency tells OneIndia.

Meanwhile, the NIA would also look into a 2005 case in which a terrorist arrested by the Delhi police had spoken about Singh.

The Delhi police had arrested seven terrorists including Haji Ghulam Dar in 2005. He had spoken about his link with Singh. An undertaking was found on him which stated that he keeps pistols with him and it is requested that security forces must not stop him and he should be allowed to go without any probe. The undertaking was signed by Singh.

Meanwhile, the NIA will question DSP Davinder Singh at New Delhi.

The NIA had taken over the case against Singh and three Hizbul Mujahideen terrorists.

The investigation agency re-registered the case originally filed by the Jammu and Kashmir police based on the instructions of the Ministry of Home Affairs.

Singh is alleged to have brought Naveed Babu, Mir Irfan and Rafi Rather from Shopian to Srinagar on Friday evening. On Saturday, they set out to Jammu, from where they were planning on going to New Delhi.
