Investigation into a murder case in which three members of KFD were arrested, has exposed that the organisation has a wide network as 40 SIM cards were recovered from them, he told reporters.

Several BJP leaders in the state have demanded ban on KFD, terming it a "terror outfit".

An IIT Delhi professor was killed and four people were injured in the 2005 terror strike at IISc.
