Hunt on for Bangladeshi nationals
Devesh K. Pandey
NEW DELHI: The Delhi police have launched a hunt for eight Bangladeshi nationals on suspicion of their involvement in the Mehrauli blast on Saturday. Nearly two dozen Bangladeshi nationals have been detained for questioning.
Suspecting that the module behind the Saturday blast is different from the one involved in the September 13 serial explosions in the Capital, the police are probing if those behind the three mysterious blasts of a similar nature in South Delhi earlier this year were responsible.
In connection with those blasts, a Bangladeshi national, Mohammad Hakim alias Dulal, was arrested in Delhi in July-end. At his instance, Yasin and Meheruddin were arrested at New Jalpaiguri in West Bengal with the help of the local police. They also reportedly seized five crude bombs configured in small bottles. Some chemical, probably chlorate-based, was stuffed in the bottles along with nails.
The accused disclosed that their accomplices had fled towards the Indo-Bangladesh border. Investigations revealed that all the suspects were into petty crimes and had sneaked into Bangladesh through the porous border. The police are now trying to ascertain if the same people were involved in the Mehrauli explosion. A team has been despatched to New Jalpaiguri to develop the leads .
Meanwhile, the police clarified that the 60-year-old man who died at AIIMS here on Saturday was not a victim of the Mehrauli blast. The police are also trying to identify and locate the black Bajaj Pulsar motorcycle on which two miscreants came to the Mehrauli market, planted the bomb and sped away.
