FIA officials said that the terrorist is fluent in Persian language and is also good at information technology for which he got training from some handler of the outlawed group. The militant told police that he used lesser known social media applications like Telegram to brainwash young people, especially women, after authorities started strict monitoring. The Authority also seized ISIS flags, a laptop, internet devices and mobile phones from the militant.

Pakistani law enforcement agencies have expanded the probe to other parts of the country after Imran's arrest.
