They also found a twitter account which had objectionable and provocative posts.
The police informed that Azmal is also part of certain social media groups which post objectionable content. “He was operating using a foreign SIM card as he was aware of what happened with Mangalore Muslim Facebook page and presumed that he will not be caught.
