"They had planned that responsibility for the terrorist activities so committed would be taken by the pseudo-acronym TRF so as to maintain plausible deniability and evade Law Enforcement Agencies," NIA said.
During the searches conducted today many digital devices including mobiles, pen drives, data storage devices and other incriminating materials were recovered by the agency.
Further investigation in the case underway.
