A Pakistani terrorist belonging to banned terror group Al-Badr, was today sentenced to seven years of rigorous imprisonment by a Bengaluru court in a money laundering case. <br/><br/>This is the first case of conviction and sentencing involving a terrorist under the Prevention of Money Laundering Act. <br/><br/>The terrorist has been identified as Mohammad Fahad Hai alias Mohammad Koya alias Neduthani and holds a Master of Science degree in analytical chemistry. He hails from the port city of Karachi where his family still lives.<br/>'<br/>The Enforcement Directorate (ED) in a statement said, that the court of Principal City, Civil and Sessions Judge Basavaraj S Sappannavar convicted Mohammed Fahad Hai under section 4 of the PMLA and sentenced him to seven years rigorous imprisonment and a fine of 10,000 rupees. <br/><br/>An amount of nearly 90 thousand rupees in the name of Hai, has also been confiscated under the PMLA after it was attached by the ED earlier.<br/>'<br/>The case dates to 2006 when the Mysore police, based on inputs that Pak-based terrorists were planning a strike in the city, intercepted two persons on a bike on the night of 26th October that year. <br/><br/>The policemen on-duty challenged the duo and sought to frisk them after which the man on the pillion, which was Hai, took out a rifle from a bag and fired at them. The police team soon overpowered the duo, the other being Mohammed Ali Hussain, a resident of Pakistan. <br/><br/>On enquiry it was revealed that they are active members of the banned Al-Badr organisation and had entered India without valid travel documents and were in the possession of an AK-47 rifle, pistol, live bullets, mobile and satellite phones. <br/><br/>The ED subsequently booked a PMLA case against Hai and filed a charge sheet in 2010 after which the case went for trial.<br/>
