NIA sources said 40 locations of prominent Jamaat-e-Islami (JEI) members and offices of the organisation were simultaneously raided.<\/p>\n
“A fresh FIR has been lodged against the JeM and today’s raids are part of the investigation pertaining to this FIR”, sources said.<\/p>\n
Reports here said the Falah-e-Aam trust, owned by the JeM situated in Nowgam outskirts area of Srinagar has also been raided.<\/p>\n
