Jaipur serial blasts: Three persons detained

KOTA: A day after the Gujarat police claimed to have cracked the Ahmedabad serial blast case, the Rajasthan police on Sunday said they have detained three persons, including two SIMI activists, for questioning in connection with the Jaipur explosions in May.
Riaz and Vasim Kabadi from Talabpara area and Abid Bhai Kapdewala from Shoepurian Masjid area were detained by the police in Baran, about 100 kms from here, last evening, a police officer said.

All the three have been taken to Jaipur for further investigation, he said.

A large crowd assembled in front of the Baran Kotwali last night after the news about the detention of the three persons spread. The crowd dispersed after being told that the suspects had been taken to the state capital.
