Jaipur, (UNI) The Rajasthan Police have initiated investigation in the alleged links – following arrests of 3 terrorists in Ambala – being emerged with Hanumangarh and Ajmer cities of this state.
According to reports from sources at different places, the IED recovered by the Ambala Police from the terrorists, were brought from Amritsar to Hanumangarh recently, and was carried to Ambala after the parcel of the explosive devices remaining dumped in Hanumangarh for 5 days.
Reports said that the devices and the RDX consignments from across the border were meant for blasts in chosen towns, including Hanumangarh. However, delay or non arrival of RDX failed disruptive elements’ plans and thus they had lifted back and taken away IEDs from Hanumangarh.
On being asked whether Hanumangarh was the first target (for blasts) of the terrorists, Superintendent of Police Harishankar declined answer saying “We have been doing investigations at multiple levels at various places, we would share our findings a little bit later. One of our teams, led by a deputy superintendent of police, has already reached Ambala to share tip off with Haryana Police and interrogate the nabbed ones.
“We would soon get breakthrough to share with media and all concerned,” the SP said.
On question how the consignment reached Hanumangarh and parcel remained dump in the city for 5 days, the officer said that “we have been collected clues and evidences like CC TV footage and would make revelation soon. … we were maintaining intra and inter state high alert in the period in reference which had enabled us even to seize a huge haul of arms.”
One of the three nabbed terrorists, Ali Akbar hails from Ajmer City, the cops also went to his residence in the Logia Mohalla of the town to gather some information and evidences.
In the meantime, his family has opted to distance away from Ali’s activities and offered support and cooperation to the police in the probe.
His sibling Ali Asghar reportedly said that he and the family had no idea about the subversive activities of Akbar and they have nothing to do with his misdeeds (activities).
“He should be punished hard (stringently), we would cooperate with the police in all possible ways”.
