Six people from the 11 who were arrested by the NIA in Hyderabad on Wednesday were released on Thursday night after no evidence was found against them.

Quoting sources, Deccan Chronicle reported that the six people were picked up on suspicion that they were close to the five arrested IS men but a search of their houses had not found anything incriminating against them. 

The six people do not have any criminal background and no cases were registered, but the NIA may still keep them under surveillance.
