The five accused were detained in the judicial custody of Bengaluru Central Prison after being indoctrinated by LeT agent T Nasir, who was detained for his suspected involvement in the 2008 serial bomb bombing case in Bengaluru.
The five suspects, who were detained in 2017 in connection with a murder investigation, encountered Nasir when they were in detention, where the latter radicalised them, according to the police.
