A Delhi court Friday sent alleged Jaish-e-Mohammed terrorist Sajjad Khan, a close aide of Pulwama attack mastermind Muddasir, to NIA custody till March 29.
Advocate M S Khan, appearing for Sajjad Khan, opposed the agency's demand.
Sajjad Khan (27), a resident of Pulwama was arrested near the Lajpat Rai market late Thursday night.
Mudassir had tasked him with establishing a sleeper cell in Delhi, police said.
