Hussain is presently on seven-day police remand in connection with violent incidents in northeast Delhi on February 24-25.
According to a Delhi Police crime branch source, a total of 15 people have been identified so far, to whom Hussain was contacting regularly. However, the motive of conversations has not been cleared so far.
