Delhi blast: Six suspects, including a Pakistani, arrested

NEW DELHI:


Indian police on Wednesday arrested six alleged members of a banned militant group, including one alleged Pakistani national, in connection with three bomb blasts and a shootout last year. 


The arrested suspects belonged to the Indian Mujahideen and were involved in a series of bomb blasts and a shooting near Delhi’s largest mosque last year, police said in a statement.

“All the members of the Indian Mujahideen terrorist module were subjected to intensive interrogation,” the statement said, adding that the suspects had confessed to their involvement in a blast at a bakery in Pune city last year that killed eight and another at a stadium in Bangalore.

The arrests were made across the country and police also seized automatic weapons, handguns and explosive material in the raids.

US has Al Qaeda, Hindustan has Indian Mujahedeen, that is to laugh about. And Pakistan maybe also have their proxies, so agree with Shairyar. Welcome to Pak sites to express your views, hindustani nabours :)
