Madras HC refuses to set aside detention order passed against Sri Lankan national

Madurai, Sep 19 (UNI) The Madras High Court Bench here on Saturday refused to set aside the detention order passed against a Sri Lankan Tamil, M Mohamed Ribas (37) who was suspected to be a member of a fundamentalist group which allegedly conspired to eliminate leaders from the majority community who 'spoke against their religion'.
The Ramanathapuram district police busted the fundamentalist group in April 2018 after finding that the members have a WhatsApp group by the name, 'Shahadat (martyrdom) is our goal,' and assembled at the house of Mohamed Ribas at Kilakarai to allegedly draw strategies to eliminate the leaders who spoke against the religion.
The police arrested 10 persons, including the prime accused A.Sheik Dawood in the case and detained some of them, including Mohamed Ribas under the National Security Act (NSA).
