Asif leads police to arms cache
DH News Service, Dharwad:
<b>Explosives were unearthed by the police at Halligeri forest on Haliyal Road, near here on Thursday evening.</b>
The police found the cache of explosives based on the information given by terror suspect Mohammed Asif during interrogation. <b>Even though the suspect had tried to mislead the police with regard to the exact location of the explosives a major breakthrough came on Thursday evening.</b>
Co D IG M R Pujar, senior officers S S Khot and Sudhakar took Asif to Halligeri and recovered a hand bomb, 100 wire caps and 85 gelatin sticks packed in a bag.
Asif initially said that he had forgotten the exact location. But the police continued their search in the forest for more than one hour. Later, Asif took the police to the spot and the police unearthed the explosives. Asif reportedly told the police that he and other terrorists Adnan and Asadulla Abubakkar stayed in the jungle for one night to prepare the explosives.
Earlier the police had recovered a timer and a detonator, used to trigger off sophisticated explosives like RDX, from Asadullaâs room at Hemanth Nagar in Hubli.
Sources said that Thursdayâs discovery was a major breakthrough in proving the fact that terrors had established a network in the region. <b>The latest developments may also help the police to trace the exact destination of a huge consignment of explosives reportedly transported from Bangladesh to North Karnataka.</b>
Meanwhile, the police took a hotelier from Belgaum into custody for alleged links with Adnan from Bijapur, who is now at large. Sources said that the hotelier spent several days with the suspect terrorists.
