Washington: A Pakistani doctor was arrested in the US for trying to help the terrorist organization ISIS and expressing his willingness to attack. Minnesota District Attorney Erica McDonald and US National Security Assistant Attorney General John Demers have reported that Mohammad Masood (28) is loyal to ISIS. Between January and March, Masood made several statements and the Pakistani doctor had also expressed his desire to go from Syria to Syria to fight for the terrorist organization.

Giving information, officials said that Masood had also expressed his intention to carry out 'Lone Wolf' (meaning let alone carry out a terrorist incident) terrorist attack. Masood was arrested at the Minneapolis-St. Paul International Airport. Masood is a licensed physician from Pakistan and has also served as a research coordinator for a medical clinic in Minnesota under an H1B visa.

The FBI began an investigation in January 2020. It was an investigation into how encrypted social media platform (SMP) user 'BB' plans to provide content and support to ISIS. User BB had requested help in creating Hijr (migration) to show his loyalty to the ISIS group and its leader. Later, during the investigation, it was found that the user named 'BB' was none other than Dr. Masood.
