‘ATS takes Nagori to training camp near Halol-Champaner highway’

Vadodara, August 27 Safdar Nagori, one of the prime accused in the Ahmedabad blasts, is now being taken to Panchmahals district, as the Anti-Terrorist Squad (ATS) along with the police trace the actual spots in Halol where the meetings of SIMI activists were held.

According to a highly placed source in the ATS, on Tuesday, the team went to the alleged training camp near Halol-Champaner highway at an abandoned quarry.

Their night halt was arranged at the Godhra Circuit House. One of the members of the ATS said that due to the secretive nature of the investigation, a very few local police were briefed about Nagori.

Meanwhile, the police avoided visiting Khunda Peer Dargah, as sources said Nagori is not from the same community as that of the members of the Dargah. The Dargah authorities have already ruled out the possibility of his stay there on an earlier occasion.

Earlier, two other accused Imran Sheikh and Usman Agarbattiwala were reportedly taken to the spot where training was supposedly imparted to a group of 25-30 men, after a similar camp was organised in the jungles of northern Kerala.
