An accused in the 2006 Kalupur railway station blast in Ahmedabad, who was on the run for 14 years, was arrested by the Gujarat Anti Terrorist Squad (ATS) from a village in West Bengal close to Bangladesh Border, officials said on Thursday.
Based on specific inputs, a team of the ATS nabbed the accused, Abdul Razzaq Gazi, from a village in Basirhat tehsil of West Bengal's North 24 Parganas district, the officials said. Gazi was brought to the Gujarat ATS headquarters on Thursday.
According to the ATS, Gazi gave shelter to Lashkar-e-Taiba (LeT) operatives Zulfikar Kagzi and Abu Jundal, who along with others were accused of planting a bomb between platform no 2 and 3 of Kalupur railway station in February 2006. While the blast left several injured, no one was killed in it, the officials said.
