However, Manzar Imam, said to be in his 30s, was not at his home in Bariatu locality when the team from India’s premier anti-terror agency went. Police sources said the NIA sleuths spoke to his family and searched his computer for information.

Mazar, sources said, is a neighbour and friend of Danish, whose name figured in the probe into the 2008 Ahmedabad serial bombings, in which at least 50 people were killed.

“My son is being implicated as he was a friend of Danish,” said Manzar’s father Ali Imam.

His family said Manzar was not at home as he was unwell and had gone for treatment.

According to police sources, Danish’s mail was tracked by investigating agencies who believed that some Ranchi youth were associated with the Indian Mujahideen.
