indian army officer arrested over deadly bombing

NEW DELHI: An army officer was arrested on Wednesday in connection with bomb blasts in two western Indian towns that killed five people and were blamed on a Hindu militant group, a government lawyer said. Officers from the anti-terrorism squad in the western city of Mumbai questioned Lieutenant-Colonel Srikant Purohit, a Hindu, for days before finally arresting him. “He was arrested this morning and is being produced in court,” said Ajay Misar, a government lawyer acting in the case. The officer is accused of helping Hindu militants with bomb-making and other logistics in the attack in the Muslim-dominated towns of Malegaon and Modasa in September. Three other people, all Hindus, had already been arrested in connection with the September 29 attacks. For years, bomb attacks in India have mostly been blamed on Islamist militants. Even attacks on mosques were often blamed on Islamists seeking to spark communal tensions between India’s majority Hindus and minority Muslims. reuters
