A doctor has been arrested in connection with
the deadly wave of terror attacks that rocked Mumbai on July 11, taking the
total number of arrests to four.
Tanvir Ansari, an alleged Lashkar-e-Tayiba
operative who practices Unani medicine in central Mumbai, was arrested on
Sunday night, Anti-Terrorism Squad sources said on Monday.
He was arrested by Crime Branch and later
handed over to the ATS, they said. He will be produced before a local court
later in the day.
"Ansari had undergone training in Pakistan
in handling arms, ammunition and making bombs and explosives. He is suspected
to have provided such training to others," they said.
Earlier on July 21, police arrested three
persons for their alleged involvement in the serial blasts in Mumbai suburban
trains that claimed about 200 lives and injured over 700.
Two people-Kamal Ahmed Mohammad Vakil Ansari
and Khalid Aziz Raunaq Aziz Sheikh-were arrested from Bihar while the third-Mumtaz
Ahmed Maqbul Ahmed Choudury-was nabbed from Navi Mumbai. They were remanded
to 10-day custody.
