Ghaziabad:
A Ghaziabad court Monday awarded life term to two terror convicts,
including a Pakistani national, who planted in an Uttar Pradesh
government-run bus in 1996 a bomb that killed 16 people in
Modinagar town. One suspect was acquitted.
Additional District and Sessions Judge Mangal Prasad Yadav gave
life term to Mohammad Mateen, a Pakistani national arrested from
Jammu and Kashmir in 1997, and Mohammad Iliyas, a resident of
Muzaffarnagar, and slapped a penalty of Rs.50,000 on each.
The court acquitted third suspect Tehseen in absence of evidence
to link him to the April 27, 1996 explosion on National Highway-58
which left 18 people injured. The bus was going from Delhi to
Dehradun.
