Official sources said the CIK team questioned Mr. Parra’s brother during the raid. CIK officials refused to divulge the details of the operation and did not reveal the reason behind these raids. However, official sources said the raids were a part of the investigation in a case related to money transactions between Mr. Parra and “some suspected individuals”. It’s alleged that Mr. Parra was in touch with one of the arrested persons in 2019, at a time when the elections were due in J&K. The NIA court is likely to hear Mr. Parra’s bail plea on Thursday.
