Mumbai:
A man being questioned by police in the July 13 Mumbai blasts died
following a brain haemorrhage early Sunday, a medical officer
said.
Faiz Usmani was picked up as a suspect in the triple blasts, which
left 19 dead and 129 injured, but late Saturday evening he
suddenly took ill and was rushed to Sion Hospital. He died there
1.20 a.m. Sunday, the medical officer on duty said.
The officer said when Faiz was brought, his blood pressure was in
excess of 220 points and there was a large amount of blood in his
brain.
"We conducted all tests on the patient and it was a case of a
massive haemorrhage," the medical official told IANS.
Faiz was the brother of Afzal Usmani, one of the prime accused in
blasts in Ahmedabad and Surat, and both were suspected members of
the Indian Mujahiddeen.
