The government on Sunday dismissed a United Nations report on the suggested presence of ISIS terrorists in Kerala and Karnataka. Union Minister of State for Home G Kishan Reddy said in the Lok Sabha that the UN report suggesting there are "significant numbers" of ISIS terrorists in Kerala and Karnataka is 'factually not correct'. He also added that 34 cases related to the presence of Islamic State (IS) and 20 cases related to the presence of Lashkar-e-Toiba across the country have been registered by the National Investigation Agency (NIA) and 240 people arrested.
