Mumbai: The ATS on Wednesday said it had not found any involvement of Sri Ram Sene (SRS) chief Pramod Mutalik in the Malegaon blast case so far. The agency had questioned Mutalik in Karnataka on January 30.

Mutalik was first arrested on January 28 for inciting a group of youths who attacked women sitting in a pub at Mangalore. A news channel then aired a speech delivered by Mutalik where he spoke about the 2008 Malegaon bomb
blast. Mutalik was shown saying “Malegaon is just a glimpse of what we can do.’’

“We have scrutinised his statement and not found anything to link it with the Malegaon blast case so far. However, if Mutalik’s links emerge in the future, action will be taken against him,’’ said ATS additional commissioner Param Bir Singh.

The ATS is looking for one Pravin Mutalik in the Malegaon case. Pravin is suspected to have planted the bomb in Malegaon on September 29.
