First arrest over Hyderabad bombs
Indian Police yesterday said they had made their first arrest in
connection with last month's twin bombings which killed 16 people in the
southern city of Hyderabad. An official from the National Investigating
Agency (NIA), a federal police unit that probes terror offences, said
the suspect was arrested in the eastern Indian city of Ranchi.
"A NIA team arrested Manzar Imam in Ranchi in connection with the
(Hyderabad) blasts," the official told AFP in New Delhi, asking not to
be named and giving no further details.
