Mumbai: The state police claims it has solved the September 8 Malegaon blasts case with the arrest on Monday of a former activist of the banned organisation SIMI (Students Islamic Movement of India).

Director-General of Police P S Pasricha announced
on Monday that the police had arrested Noor-ul-Huda (24), a labourer in a battery unit at Malegaon and a former SIMI member, in connection with the blasts that killed 38 people and injured 297. The DGP also said that the owner of the battery unit, Shabbir Masiullah (34), would be booked in the case. Masiullah is in the custody of the Mumbai crime branch which arrested him for his SIMI links.

Pasricha has, however, refused to reveal anything more. All he was willing to say was that the motive was to create communal riots.
