New Delhi: The six Indian Mujahideen operatives who were arrested by Delhi Police will be presented in a lower court on Monday. These IM operatives were arrested for their alleged involvement in Pune's German Bakery and Delhi's Jama Masjid blasts.
Their police custody ends on Monday.
The Police recovered 2 AK-47 rifles, a 9 mm pistol, 5 kgs of explosives and 64 cartridges from the accused.
While the police chose not to react officially saying their operations to arrest the remaining members of the module were still on, sources told CNN-IBN that the planning for the German Bakery blast, Chinnaswamy Stadium blast and the Jama Masjid firing took place in Delhi.
The motive in each case was to attack foreign tourists.
The module hardly relied on technology and maintained a high degree of secrecy with each member being informed only about his specific task. Group members were well trained in the handling of sophisticated weapons and making explosives.
All the arrested operatives hail from north Bihar. Police sources say this area could well be the new recruiting centre for the Indian Mujahideen.
But for the police the top priority for now is the arrest of Ahmad Siddi Bappa or Yashin Ahmad, the man believed to be the leader of this group and the mastermind of Indian Mujahideen's operations in the country.
