Bangalore: The National Investigation Agency (NIA) on Monday seized from a Bangalore businessman Rs.1.14-crore in cash, allegedly belonging to two Manipur-based outlawed terrorist groups.
"The businessman admitted receiving the unaccounted cash from N. Shanti Meitei, a self-styled general secretary of the People's Revolutionary Party of Kangleipak (PREPAK) and the United People's Party of Kangleipak (UPPK), a banned terrorist organisation, in Manipur," NIA said.
The NIA had arrested Meitei in a terror-related case earlier.
"The seized money was deposited in the businessman's account operated in one of the State Bank of India's branch in the city," a NIA source said but declined to name the businessman, as investigation in the terror case was in progress.
