◆Two arrested, hunt on for four more for Patna serial blasts
Multiple bomb blasts ripped through Patna's Gandhi Maidan and railway station on Sunday claimed five lives and injured scores of people.
According to the police, bombs planted by 3 groups. Investigators have cited suspected key Indian Mujahideen (IM) operative Tehseen Akhtar alias Monu as the mastermind.
The arrested, Ainul alias Tariq, hailing from Ranchi, was seriously injured while planting a bomb in a toilet of the railway station. Imtiaz Ansari, also a Ranchi resident, was arrested on Sunday while trying to flee the station. Both have confessed to their crime, the police said. The police on Monday made another arrest.
Fugitive IM leader Mohd Tehsin Akhtar wanted to target BJP's prime ministerial candidate Narendra Modi and also avenge the recent Muzaffarnagar riots by triggering serial blasts at the "Hunkar Rally" in Patna, preliminary investigations into Sunday's blasts have revealed.
He had handed over bombs to at least six of his associates in Ranchi. Akhtar is learnt to have taken over the IM' helm, after the arrest of Yasin Bhatkal and Asadullah Akhtar in August. He is suspected to be involved in terror strikes at Varanasi (2010), Mumbai (2011), Dilsukhnagar and Bodh Gaya (2013).
The associates, including Mohammed Imtiaz Ansari who was arrested by the local police, left Ranchi for Patna in batches of two a day before the blasts, said investigating agency sources.
Meanwhile, another fugitive IM operative Afzal Usmani, who had escaped from a Mumbai court last month, was rearrested by Maharashtra Anti-Terrorism Squad from a place in Uttar Pradesh on Sunday when he was trying to flee to Nepal.
Usmani, an accused in the 2008 Ahmedabad bombings case, was arrested outside Rupadia railway station, Maharashtra ATS chief Rakesh Maria told reporters. Usmani's arrest materialised after his nephew Javed Nurullah Hussain Khan, who had assisted in his escape from Mumbai, was picked up by the ATS on October 25, Maria said.
