JAIPUR: The Rajasthan Anti-Terrorism Squad (ATS) has arrested Chandrashekhar, another member of the terror module that was apparently formed for carrying out the 2007 Ajmer Dargah blast, from Shahajahanpur in Madhya Pradesh.
The ATS team has also seized the mobile phone used to trigger the blast from Chandrashekharís possession. Chandrashekhar was leading the module and was given the responsibility of supplying mobile phones and SIM cards needed to trigger the explosion.
The ATS revealed that a Madhya Pradesh-based module of the right-wing Hindu outfit Abhinav Bharat, involved in the Malegaon blasts, had possibly executed the terror strike at the Dargah Ajmer Shareef on October 11, 2007.
Chandrashekhar was produced before an Ajmer court, which remanded him in 11-day police custody. He is believed to be a key member of the terror module involved in the blast in which three persons were killed and is said to have links with Hindu extremist outfits.
Chandrashekhar is the second person to be arrested in connection with the case this week. A few days back, Devendra Gupta was arrested by Rajasthan police in connection with the blast. Gupta is reportedly linked with Hindu outfit Abhinav Bharat Sangathan and supposed to be involved in the blast inside the Dargah of Khawaja Moinuddin Chishti. He is also believed to have links with Hindu outfits like the RSS.
Officials are probing Guptas links with Sadhvi Pragya Singh Thakur, a key accused in the Malegaon blast case.
