CHANDIGARH: The National Investigation Agency (NIA) will file a second chargesheet in the 2007 Samjhauta Express blast case before a designated court in Panchkula in Haryana on Thursday.
"We will be filing a supplementary chargesheet in the case on Thursday," R K Handa, special public prosecutor, said here on Wednesday.
The fresh chargesheet is likely to name
Kamal Chauhan and Amit Chauhan as two bombers who, along with
Lokesh Sharma and Rajendra Pehalwan, allegedly planted four suitcase bombs in the train, NIA sources said.
Handa said Lokesh and Kamal are in judicial custody while Amit and Rajendra are absconding.
The NIA, which took over the probe in 2010, filed the first chargesheet in June last year.
The NIA had charged
Aseemanand, Sunil Joshi (now dead), Lokesh Sharma, Dange alias Parmanand and Kalasangra for hatching a criminal conspiracy, leading to the blasts.
The blasts in the Samjhauta Express had occurred near Deewana railway station in Haryana's Panipat district, some 80 kms from Delhi, leaving 68 people dead, mostly Pakistanis.
The initial probe was carried out by the Railway Police and Haryana Police. Later, it was handed over to NIA.
