Delhi blast: UP Anti Terrorist Squad team joins NIA

Lucknow, Sep 23: Uttar Pradesh's Anti-Terror Squad (ATS) has joined the National Investigation Agency (NIA), which sought the help of the ATS over evidences pointing at a possible UP link and the involvement of Indian Mujahideen behind the deadly Delhi High Court blast.

A team of state's Anti-Terror Squad reached the capital on Thursday (Sep 22) on the request of NIA Director General SC Sinha to UP's Special DG (Law & Order) Brij Lal to send the ATS team to Delhi, which investigated last year's Varanasi bomb blast.

Sources revealed there must be some links between the two blasts as the Indian Mujahideen was involved in both Varanasi and Delhi terror attacks.

The NIA has detained three people from Kishtwar including the owner of a cyber cafe and two youths, who allegedly sent email claiming responsibility for the blast.
