Second suspect arrested in Ajmer blast case, sent to 11-day police custody

A second suspect in the 2007 Ajmer Dargah blast case, arrested by Rajasthan ATS from Madhya Pradesh, was today produced before an Ajmer court which remanded him in 11-day police custody.

Chandrashekhar was arrested yesterday from Madhya
Pradesh when he had gone to a school where his children were
studying, ATS sources said here.

He is suspected to be a key member of the terror module involved in the blast in which three persons were killed and is believed to have links with Hindu outfits, the sources said.

Chandrashekhar is the second person to be arrested in connection with the case this week. On Wednesday, Devendra
Gupta was arrested by Rajasthan Police in connection with the
blast.

Gupta is allegedly linked with Hindu outfit Abhinav Bharat Sangathan and suspected to be involved in the blast inside the Dargah of Khawaja Moinuddin Chishti, they said. 

Officials are also probing Gupta's alleged links with Sadhvi Pragya Singh Thakur, a key accused in the Malegaon blast case.

Both the accused will be produced again before the court on May 12.
