Parmar was arrested after Rajender
Chaudhary, an accused in the blast case who was arrested in Ujjain a few
days ago, confessed that that three people planted bombs in the mosque.
Nine people were killed and 58 others
were injured in the bomb blast during Friday prayers on May 18, 2007 at
the 17th century mosque, one of the biggest mosques in India.
Chaudhary confessed that he along with
Parmar and Amit planted bombs. Amit is still absconding. All the three
hail from Madhya Pradesh and share the same ideology. The NIA has not
yet revealed the name of the organization they belong to.
According to NIA, the trio along with
the main accused Swami Aseemanand and others are involved in blasts on
Samjhauta Express, Ajmer Dargah, Mecca Masjid, Malegaon and other
places.
The other arrested accused in the blasts include Devender Gupta, Lokesh Sharma and Bharat Lal alias Bharat Bhai.
Two other accused Ramchandra Kalsangra
and Sandeep Dange are absconding while another suspect Sunil Joshi was
killed, allegedly by his own associates.
