New Delhi: A city court on Friday remanded Mohammad Omar Madni, the alleged Lashkar-e-Taiba head of Nepal, in judicial custody till July 10, after a request was put in by the Special Cell following the completion of his 21-day police custody.
The Delhi Police also informed the court that they have written to the Ministry of External Affairs (MEA) and other relevant government departments for help in collecting vital information from Nepal about the alleged militant’s activities in the neighbouring country.
The Special Cell had produced 50-year-old Madni before Chief Metropolitan Magistrate Kaweri Baweja after the expiry of 21 days of police remand — the first instance of such a long period of police remand after the amendment in the Code of Criminal Procedure in the wake of the Mumbai terror attacks.
The investigators claimed the accused, during his custodial interrogation, had disclosed his modus operandi — he selected men and sent them to Pakistan-occupied-Kashmir (PoK) for training in terror activities in complicity with the Maoist organisation in Jharkhand. The men were brainwashed sufficiently on the call for ‘jehad’ before being sent to the training camps in PoK, the police have alleged.
