Twitter has suspended the jihadi handle, Magnet Gas (@spamc17 ), after threatening tweets were posted from the account.

The Twitter handle was reportedly being used by a Thane-based Isis terrorist Fahad Sheikh, who is one of the four boys from Kalyan who left for Syria to join the Islamic State.

Though Sheikh's Twitter accounts were suspended several times, he had always managed to come up with new handles under the name, Magnet Gas.

Sheikh posted two tweets warning of immediate retaliation over lynching of a Muslim man from a Greater Noida village for allegedly eating beef.
