Second suspect arrested in Ajmer blast case

Jaipur, May 1 (PTI) A second suspect in the 2007 Ajmer
Dargah blast case, allegedly linked with some Hindu outfits,
has been arrested by Rajasthan ATS from Madhya Pradesh.
"Chandrashekhar, who is suspected to be a key member of
the terror module involved in the blast in which three persons
were killed, was arrested yesterday from Shajapur," ATS
sources said here in northern state Rajashthan on Saturday.
He is believed to have links with Hindu outfits, the
sources said, adding he will be produced before a local court
in Ajmer.
Chandrashekhar is the second person to be arrested in
connection with the case this week. On Wednesday, Devendra
Gupta was arrested by Rajasthan Police in connection with the
blast.
Gupta is allegedly linked with Hindu outfit Abhinav
Bharat Sangathan and suspected to be involved in the blast
inside the Dargah of Khawaja Moinuddin Chishti, they said.
Officials are also probing Gupta's alleged links with
Sadhvi Pragya Singh Thakur, a key accused in the Malegaon
blast case.
Sadhvi and ten others are accused of masterminding and
carrying out blasts in Malegaon in Maharashtra on September
29, 2008, in which six persons were killed. PTI
