2008 Gujarat blasts mastermind arrested after decade-long manhunt
Delhi Police has arrested Indian Mujahideen (IM) co-founder Abdul Subhan Qureshi, one of the most wanted terrorists in the country for masterminding the 2008 Gujarat blasts.
DCP Pramod Kushwaha confirmed the same and said that Qureshi, who had gone underground for the last several years, had returned to India to meet an old acquaintance in Ghazipur.
"Abdul Subhan Qureshi was living with forged documents in Nepal. He came back to India to revive Indian Mujahideen," DCP Kushwaha told mediapersons at a press conference here on Monday on Saturday.
Teams of the Special Cell and other intelligence agencies followed Qureshi, 46, and nabbed him after a brief exchange of fire. He was then presented before a court and sent to police remand for 14 days, DCP Kushwaha said.
