New Delhi: The Delhi
Police Tuesday filed a chargesheet in a city court accusing
journalist Syed Mohammad Kazmi of conspiring with foreigners for
the Feb 13 Israeli embassy car blast.
The chargesheet also named Iranian nationals Houshang Afshar Irani,
Masod Sedaghatzadeh, Syed Ali Mehdi Sadr and Mohammed Reza
Abolghasemi as suspects.
Kazmi was been charged under various provisions of the anti-terror
law, Unlawful Activities Prevention Act (UAPA), and the penal
provision for attempt to murder, among others.
In the chargesheet, filed before Chief Metropolitan Magistrate
Vinod Yadav, police also charged Kazmi under the provisions of the
Explosive Substances Act.
He was arrested March 6 for his alleged involvement in the
bombing. Four people were injured when an Israeli embassy car was
struck by a bomb near the prime minister's house in central Delhi.
Tal Yehoshua Koren, 42, wife of Israeli defence attache Colonel
Yossi Refaelov, suffered multiple injuries when a motorcycle rider
attached a magnetic explosive device to her car in central Delhi
and sped away.
As per the chargesheet, after the Delhi blast Irani went to
Bangkok and then to Kuala Lumpur, while Masod Sedaghatzadeh has
been detained in Malaysia since March 14.
According to police, Irani visited India April 25, 2011 and left
the country May 6, 2011. He came back to India again Jan 29 but
left for Malaysia Feb 13 evening, within hours of the attack on
the Israeli embassy car here.
Irani stayed at a hotel named Hotel High 5 and an analysis of his
mobile phone number revealed that he had contacted Kazmi. The CCTV
footage and other records of his stay at the hotel were seized,
police said.
According to police, a scooter purchased by Irani for surveying
the area near the Israeli embassy was seized from Kazmi's house.
Police claimed that the phone records revealed that Kazmi was in
contact with the other accused.
