New Delhi:
The Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) Friday arrested a man
allegedly involved in the 2007 Mecca Masjid blast. He was produced
in a city court, which granted the CBI his transit remand for two
days.
Chief Metropolitan Magistrate Ajay Pandey allowed the CBI plea to
produce him in a Hyderabad court by Sunday.
"The accused will be produced before the designated court at
Hyderabad for further remand," said an official.
Accused Jatin Chatterjee, also known as Swami Asimanand, was
staying near Haridwar under an assumed name and he also managed to
obtain forged identity documents. CBI recovered a passport issued
by RPO Kolkata, a ration card and an election ID card issued by
the Haridwar authorities from his possession.
Nine people were killed in the Mecca Masjid on May 18, 2007. Five
more people were killed in police firing when protests were held
immediately after the blasts.
According to the official, Chatterjee's name also came up during
the probe into the 2008 Malegaon blast when the Maharashtra Police
recovered his driver's number from Sadhvi Pragya Singh Thakur, an
accused in the Malegaon case.
