Mumbai: The Maharashtra
Anti-Terrorist Squad has nabbed Praveen Mutalik, one of the key
absconder accused in the 2008 Malegaon bomb blast case, an
official said Tuesday.
He was nabbed from Karnataka late Monday and a hunt is on to trace
another two accused - Ramji Kalsangra and Sandeep Dange - who are
still at large.
The ATS Tuesday produced Mutalik before a Special Court for
Maharashtra Control of Organised Crime Act, which remanded him to
police custody till Feb. 14.
The latest development takes the total number of arrests in the
Malegaon blast case to 12, including other key accused like Sadhvi
Pragnya Singh Thakur, Lt. Col. S.P. Purohit and others.
Seven people were killed and many more injured when a powerful
bomb ripped through the minority-dominated Malegaon in Nashik
district Sep 29, 2008.
Subsequent ATS investigations pointed to the involvement of Hindu
extremist groups in the terror incident.
