Local Editor

Indian police stated on Saturday that a top member of the banned militant group Lashkar-e-Taiba accused of over 40 deadly bomb attacks across the country, including the 1993 Mumbai blasts, was arrested.

"This arrest is a huge achievement for the country's security agencies," S.N. Srivastava, Special Commissioner of police, told a news conference.

Police accused Tunda of being a "well-known LeT explosive expert and terrorist" and noted that he was involved in a series of blasts in 1993 in Mumbai which killed at least 250 people in a single day.

He also "masterminded" bomb blasts in Delhi in 1997-98 and serial bombings elsewhere in the country, Srivastava told reporters.

"Tunda is one of India's most wanted and his name figures in the list of top 20 terrorists. We arrested him from Indo-Nepal border. He had a Pakistani passport with him," Srivastava said.
