LDALL FIRING 3LST
The city police is also not giving much credence to
the email sent to media houses purportedly by outlawed Indian
Mujahideen as "its content and timing were not matching" with
the incidents.
There were "no specific target or specific reasons"
for the attacks and they do not find any reason to believe
that an organised terror outfit was behind the incidents which
left two Taiwanese nationals injured, Delhi Police
spokesperson Rajan Bhagat said.
"The signatures of the attacks do not show that an
organised terror organisation like Indian Mujahideen is
involved. If you see pressure cooker which was used to explode
the car, it was poorly circuited and crudely assembled," a
senior police official said.
He also said there was no reason to target Taiwanese
as they were not in news for any wrong reasons.
"If it was done by some terrorists, it would have
targeted the police station or the Masjid itself. We feel that
it is a handiwork of disgruntled youths of the area or local
criminal gang," the official said.
Investigators are also collecting details from Salim,
a rickshaw puller, who claimed to have witnessed the firing
and gave a chase to the attackers along with Constable Pramod
who is posted at Jama Masjid.
Shahi Imam of Jama Masjid Syed Ahmed Bukhari called it
a "terrorist" incident aimed at creating panic, preventing
foreign visitors from coming to the city and making the Games
a "failure".
"This has been done to spread panic in India so that
people from outside do not come to Delhi...a conspiracy to
make the Commonwealth Games a failure," he told reporters.
Asked if he feels terrorists were behind this, he
said, "killing innocent people, firing several rounds...doing
all these things...this is terrorism and the authorities will
have to find out who is responsible." PTI SJY
