Indraprasth aka New Delhi; Mumbai - As the Mumbai blasts probe begun
to unravel the vast underground network of homegrown terror, a HuJI
activist was nabbed on Sunday in Kishanganj on Bihar-Bangladesh
border, an ATS team from Maharashtra questioned several suspects in
Bhatkal in Uttara Kannada district of Karnataka, and another ATS team
examined members of Indian Mujahideen, lodged in the Central Jail
here in connection with 1993 Mumbai blasts.
In related developments, Fayaz Usmani, brother of 2008 Gujarat blast
suspect Afzal Usmani, died in a Mumbai hospital after being
questioned by police in connection with the blasts here.
The ATS is also ready with a sketch of a prime suspect and will soon
circulate it among select and top investigating officials. "But it
will not be released to the public," said an ATS official in Mumbai.
With the probe indicating involvement of Indian Mujahideen behind the
blasts, teams from ATS and National Investigation Agency (NIA) have
fanned out to different parts of the country. Besides Karnataka,
different teams have left for Gujarat, Delhi, Andhra Pradesh and West
Bengal. As the probe gathered momentum, 10 crude bombs were recovered
from a suspected militant in Ahmedabad.
Meanwhile, two persons were arrested in Bihars Kishanganj district
late on Saturday in course of the probe. One of them has been
identified as Harkat-ul-Jihad-al-Islami (HuJI) operative Mohammad
Riyazul Sarkar, understood to be a resident of North Dinajpur, West
Bengal. During his interrogation, he tried to mislead the officials
by giving a fake name and claimed to be domiciled in Gujarat.
Bihar DGP Neelmani said they were verifying the identity of Sarkar,
who had been residing in the area for the past seven days. He knew
Kannada, Gujarati and Bengali, Neelmani added.
Sources said Sarkar would be handed over to the Mumbai Police after
special branch and officials of the local Intelligence Bureau were
through with their interrogation. Some documents in Marathi and three
cell phones were recovered from Sarkar.
Meanwhile, in Ahmedabad, the Crime Branch Police had taken on remand
Danish Riyaz, an IM activist who was arrested last month for his
involvement in the July 26, 2008 serial blasts. He was till now in
custody for planting bombs in the Khadia area of the city.
As his remand in the Khadia blast case expired, the Crime Branch took
him on remand in the Civil Hospital blasts case.
Sources said that his e-mail exchanges with other Indian Mujahideen
operatives might provide some vital clues on the Mumbai blasts
suspects too.
In Ajmer, the NIA team on Sunday quizzed 1993 Mumbai serial bomb
blasts mastermind Jalees Ansari, languishing in Ajmer Jail. According
to well-placed sources, an NIA team arrived in Jaipur last Friday and
after going through the records of Ansari and about a dozen another
jailed accused in the case, interrogated them. It is learnt that NIA
will go over the transcripts of conversations between Ansari and some
people in Pakistan, Bangladesh and other countries, while he was in
jail.
On August 28 last year, in a surprise raid, intelligence agencies had
recovered a mobile phone and half a dozen SIM cards from the cell of
Ansari. Call details of his mobile revealed that he was in constant
touch with operatives of Lakshar-e-Tayyeba, whose deputy commander he
was in India in 1992.
Meanwhile, in an embarrassment for the Mumbai police, Fayaz Usmani
detained for questioning in connection with the 13/7 Mumbai triple
blasts died allegedly owing to a massive brain haemorrhage in the
small hours of Sunday.
Fiaz Usmani, elder brother of Ahmadabad blasts suspect Afzal Usmani,
died t the Sion Hospital here at 1.30 am.
A resident of Govandi in north-east Mumbai, Fiaz had been detained by
the city police on Saturday evening. He had been rushed to the
hospital after he complained of hypertension. His blood pressure was
in excess of 220 points. Within few hours of his being diagnosed with
brain haemorrhage, Afzal died at the hospital.
Fiaz's death sparked an instant controversy with his family members
suspecting foul play and alleging that he had tortured by the police
while in custody. The police officials however denied that they had
beaten up Afzal while in custody.
Maharashtra's Director General Police Ajit Parasnis swiftly ordered a
CID inquiry into the circumstances leading to Fiaz's death. A post-
mortem conducted on Afzal's body at Sion Hospital revealed that he
had not suffered any external injury.
Azeem Usmani, Fiaz's son, alleged that his father had been picked up
for questioning by the police. "We have a reason to believe that my
father was pressured and beaten up during the questioning. My father
died because of the harassment he suffered at the hands of the
police," Azeem said.
The police had suspected that Fiaz, like his younger brother Afzal
Usmani, had links with Indian Mujaheddin. Afzal had been arrested by
the city police along with four IM operatives with the July 26,2008
Ahmadabad blasts, in which 56 people were killed and over 200 others
injured.
