Bombs were made at home of newly-weds

A single bedroom house meant for a newly-married couple became a bomb factory that supplied explosives for the serial blasts last July.

At a press meet on Saturday, police said they cracked the case after they found a bus ticket on one of the slain Kerala-based terrorists killed in an encounter in Jammu and Kashmir.

The conspiracy was exposed after they interrogated Mujeeb(26), a terror suspect and a member of the Ghori brigade caught by the Kerala police. Mujeeb revealed that it was Naseer who hatched the Bangalore blast conspiracy with Riyaz Bhatkal to avenge the Babri Mosque demolition.

According to sources,u00a0 Naseer had asked Mujeeb, a school dropout who sold fish in Kannur, about his marriage plans in April when the latter had taken shelter in hisu00a0 ginger estate, sources said.

Naseer and Abdul Raheem (who died in an encounter) planned to take shelter in Mujeeb's house if he married.

Without informing his parents, Mujeeb married in May 2008 and they lived in Naseer's relative's house.

Naseer then asked Mujeeb to go to Bangalore with his wife and offered him electrical goods to sell. Abdul Raheem provided him a rented house (Rs 10,000 was paid as advance and Rs 2,500 as monthly rent) in Bommasandra Industrial Estate in Hebbagodi.

This was where the bombs for the July blast were made.
