Imran and another suspect Kaleem were taken to Bangalore on Monday for narco tests. Both were arrested in connection with the May 18 blast at Mecca Masjid and the smuggling of RDX from Bangladesh into the city in February this year.

The police here believe that both the Mecca Masjid blast and the Aug 25 twin blasts at Lumbini Park and Gokul Chat Bhandar were the handiwork of Bangladesh-based terrorist organization Harkat-ul-Jihadi Islami (HuJi).

The narco analysis tests are expected to help police in getting information about Bilal, believed to be the mastermind behind the blasts.
