In a major breakthrough, the Uttar Pradesh
Police has taken into custody a cyber cafe owner at
Sahibabad in Ghaziabad district of the National Capital region
(NCR) from where the e-mail claiming the responsibility for
Tuesday's serial blasts in Jaipur was sent by the militant
outfit Indian Mujahideen.
The Ghaziabad Police confirmed the news of taking Madhukhar
Mishra and his son into custody for interrogation.
''We are interrogating the duo to get all the information about
the people who had used the cyber cafe,'' a police officer said.
Investigating teams from Jaipur are likely to arrive at Ghaziabad
this afternoon to interrogate the duo.
Guru-al-Hindi of Indian Mujahideen claimed responsibility for the
blasts in an e-mail sent to the media yesterday and even sent video
clippings of the cycles used in the explosions.
In the e-mail, the outfit said the ''Indian Mujahideen is waging
an open war against the country for supporting the United States
and the United Kingdom on international issues.''
This is the second time the terrorist organisation has owned
responsibility for blasts in the country.
Earlier in November, the organisation had taken responsibility of
the serial blasts in three civil courts in Uttar Pradesh. However,
that time the e-mail sent by them originated from Shakarpur locality
of New Delhi and the ID used was different in the two cases.
