The Delhi Police Special Cell has arrested nine suspected terrorists allegedly linked to a Pakistan-based network involving the Inter-Services Intelligence (ISI) and elements of the Mumbai underworld. Officials said the accused were planning attacks on key installations and security personnel in Delhi, Mumbai and other major cities. They were tasked to attack "vital installations and security personnel", officials said. Nuclear facilities, airports, railway stations, and power plants were on their list.
Police on Saturday said arms and explosives have been recovered from the possession of the accused during the operation. The arrests were made following a sustained investigation and intelligence-based operation. Officials said the module was under surveillance for some time before coordinated action was taken to apprehend its members. Police said a cache of arms and explosives was recovered from the possession of the accused. The seized material reportedly includes sophisticated pistols, grenades and other items suspected to have been intended for use in terror-related activities.
