Arrested Hizbul men trained in Pakistan: Police

New Delhi, Aug 7 (PTI) Two suspected Hizbul Mujahideen
militants, who were arrested here Thursday night, had
undergone training in terror camps in Pakistan and had been
told to carry out strikes in the national capital, police
sources said Friday.

They also said that the alleged terrorists hailed from
Kupwara in northern state of Jammu and Kashmir.

Javed Ahmed and Ashiq Ali, who were in their early
thirties, were nabbed by a team of Delhi Police' elite
anti-terror wing, the Special Cell, from Central Delhi's
Daryaganj locality Thursday night.

"Both have accepted links with Pakistan-based terror
groups," a senior police officer said shortly before they were
produced in court.

Ahmed and Ali, who were in a white Santro car, were
intercepted by police at Mahavir Vatika parking area following
an intelligence input, the officer said.

Police said that they recovered two AK-47 rifles, two
grenades and four magazines, besides some documents from the
militants.

"There have been intelligence inputs about possible
terror strikes in the national capital. We were in close
coordination with Intelligence agencies which ultimately
resulted to the arrest," he said. PTI AKV
