The National Investigation Agency (NIA) has interrogated about six media persons in Kerala on suspected ties with terror organisations.

It has been reported that a NIA team from Hyderabad had the other day interrogated at least six  media persons in Kerala at its Kochi office  on suspected links with terror outfits. They were under the scanner of the NIA for the last so many  months.

According to NIA sources, a group of journalists in Kerala was maintaining a close association with the terror outfits.

It has been reported that these journalists have not cooperated with the interrogation. However, when the NIA team showed digital evidence to them regarding their connections, they were not able to respond properly, it is reported. These journalists are likely to be questioned by the NIA again

In this connection, it has been reported that 12 more Kerala journalists are under the scanner of the NIA for their links with terror outfits. Some of them are likely to be questioned by the NIA in the coming days.
