Kolkata Police have arrested three militants suspected of having ties with the banned Bangladesh-based Harkat-ul-Jehadi Islam (HUJI) terrorist outfit.
Kolkata, June 26 : Kolkata Police have arrested three militants suspected of having ties with the banned Bangladesh-based Harkat-ul-Jehadi Islam (HUJI) terrorist outfit.
The arrest followed a tip-off given by police in Lucknow.
Two of the arrested militants have confessed to being trained in Pakistan, the police said.
The arrested have been identified as Mohammed Ali Akbar Hussain, Mukhtar Hussain and Azizul Rehman.
"The first two have confessed to being trained in Pakistan. We are verifying their other activities," said Rajeev Kumar, Deputy Inspector General (D.I.G), West Bengal Police.
The arrested would be presented before a court today and after a transit is granted, they would be sent to Uttar Pradesh for further interrogation.
HUJI, which follows the Deoband sect, has been active across India for the last four years and has been blamed for attacks, including one unsuccessful on the disrupted Ram Janambhoomi site in Ayodhya and the recent bomb blast at a mosque in Hyderabad.
