Guwahati, India, : A day after the deadly serial blasts which killed at least 77 persons in Assam, the police is investigating a possible Huji-ULFA link behind the killings.
“We are not taking seriously the denial by ULFA (of being responsible for the blasts) because on earlier occasions also they have done so”, a top Assam police official said.
The ULFA cadres who are being recruited are being trained by the Jehadi militants and there is definitely a link between the two which is being investigated, he said.
Although the game plan was of the Bangladesh based Huji outfit, the police have got clues that it was carried out by the help of select individuals having local links and there the ULFA angle came in, he said.
The authorities had also pointed out Huji involvement because of the fact that except for one minority dominated pocket in Barpeta, all the other bomb attacks were carried out in general public places.
“The minority pocket was selected to mislead the people ….Even the intensity of the blast was less”, he said.
