New Delhi, May 4
Three persons with alleged allegiance to the Pakistan-based Jaish-e-Mohammed (JeM) were arrested here on Tuesday night for planning terror strikes in different parts of the National Capital.
The Delhi Police Special Cell said it had unearthed a JeM module with the arrest of Sajid, a resident of Chand Bagh in Delhi, Sameer Ahmad alias Sonu from Loni in Ghaziabad, and Shakir Ansari from Deoband in Uttar Pradesh. A local court today remanded them in police custody for 10 days.
At least 10 other persons have been detained in connection with the module.
“During their preliminary interrogation, the trio has pledged allegiance to JeM. They had planned to use the IEDs recovered from their possession for explosions at sensitive locations in Delhi and NCR. They have disclosed several backward and forward linkages, which are being worked upon,” said Arvind Deep, Special Commissioner of Police (Special Cell).
