The officers associated with the investigation claim that Majeed as of now has no regrets about having been part of the Islamic State militants' outfit.
Home Minister Rajnath Singh while speaking to reporters in Guwahati on Saturday said, "We don't want to harass anyone and deal with it on a case-to-case to basis," reports NDTV.
The investigators claim that having been shot twice in the war zones of Iraq and Syria, Majeed returned to India for medical attention.
Majeed reportedly said that Shaheen Tanki, Fahad Shaikh and Aman Tandel, the other three youths from Kalyan who travelled with him are still alive.
After attaining legal permission, Majeed will be provided with counselling and psychiatric help by the Ministry of Home Affairs, said sources.
"We are taking a sympathetic and humane view of the situation. Also, rather than using the law, we would prefer to sensitize the youth and ensure no one joins IS," said senior officials.
The National Investigation Agency (NIA) has filed criminal charges against Majeed for waging war against a foreign government.
