Mumbai: Almost six months after three blasts ripped through Mumbai on July 13, 2011, the Maharashtra Anti-Terrorism Squad (ATS) on Monday claimed to have cracked the case, arresting three people for their alleged involvement in the terror strikes. ATS chief Rakesh Maria said on Monday in Mumbai that two people, Naqee Ahmed and Nadeem Mukhtar, have been arrested for their involvement.
ATS chief Rakesh Maria said that the investigating teams visited 18 states and a lead was obtained sometime in last week of November, 2011. A team left for Darbhanga in Bihar to carry out the investigations.
Maria said that 12373 witnesses were examined and the financial trail of the blasts has been fully covered.
"The investigations were handed over to the ATS on July 18. During the investigations and lookout we made inquiries in 18 states. There are 12373 witness in the case. We have analysed footages from 180 camera. Success was achieved and we have been able to pinpoint the perpetrators of the crime," said Maria.
Naqee is the person with whose help Delhi Special Cell was planning to identify Shahrukh Shahbandari alias Yasin Bhatkal at Habib Building in Mumbai's Byculla. But before that could happen, the Maharashtra ATS arrested him in a cheating case.
Earlier it was reported that the hideout of three of the perpetrators has been found. The key blast planners operated from a third-floor flat in Byculla.
Sources say the trio, including key conspirator Shahrukh Shahbandari alias Yasin Bhatkal, had rented the apartment for six months.
The Maharashtra ATS questioned the landlord, even as the trio is believed to have fled the country earlier this month.
Powerful IED blasts had rocked the bustling Zaveri Bazaar, Opera House and Dadar areas in Mumbai within a span of 30 minutes on July 13, 2011, killing 27 and wounding 137 others.
The first blast had taken place at 6:54 pm at south Mumbai's crowded Zaveri Bazaar. Within a few minutes, Opera House and Dadar were also hit by powerful explosions.
