A third man suspected to be involved in the 2007 bombing at the famed Ajmer Dargah Sharif that killed three people has been detained in Madhya Pradesh and brought to Rajasthan, police sources here said Sunday.
The Anti-Terrorist Squad of the Rajasthan Police held Vishnu Prasad late Saturday in Shahjahanpur in neighbouring Madhya Pradesh. The suspect is said to be a close aide of Chandrashekhar, a member of a Hindu rightwing group, who was arrested from Shahjahanpur Friday in connection with the blast, police sources said.
Chandrashekhar's arrest came close on the heels of the arrest of Devendra Gupta from Ajmer Wednesday.
Three people were killed and about 30 injured when a bomb exploded Oct 11, 2007 on the premises of the Dargah of Sufi Khwaja Moinuddin Chisti which annually draws hundreds of thousands of devouts both from India and abroad.
