New Delhi : A Delhi Police team is to soon fly to Bangkok to interrogate Sedaghatzadeh Masoud, arrested in connection with the Feb 14 Bangkok blast case and who has links with the Iranian national who stuck a bomb on an Israeli embassy car here last month, a senior police official told IANS Wednesday.
Delhi Police have also got more leads to the Feb 13 terror attack in the Indian capital and have provided them to the Central Bureau of Investigation, said the official who declined to be identified.
The leads were obtained during the interrogation of journalist Sayed Mohammed Ahmed Kazmi, 52, who was arrested by the special cell of Delhi Police on March 6 from the capital.
“The investigating agencies have managed to retrieve some information from the Iranian SIM, that was recovered from Kazmi’s house,” said the police official.
The three Iranians linked to the Israeli car bombing are Houshang Afshar Irani, Seyed Ali Mahdiansadr and Mohammadreza Abolghasemi.
Irani, the man who stuck the explosive on the Israeli embassy car on Feb 13, had left the city on the same day for Malaysia, while the other two left the city two days before the blast.
Irani, who had come twice to Delhi, was in touch with Sedaghatzadeh Masoud, the operational head in the Feb 14 Bangkok blast case. Masoud was arrested from Malaysia the next day after the arrest of his associates Moradi Saeid and Mohammed Khazaei in the same blast case.
Call records of the Iranian SIM found in Kazmi’s possession showed that Irani was in touch with Masoud, the official said.
A Delhi court has issued non-bailable arrest warrants against the three Iranians.
On Feb 13, four people were injured when an Israeli embassy car was struck by a bomb near the Israeli embassy in New Delhi.
Tal Yehoshua Koren, wife of the Israeli defence attache, suffered multiple injuries when a motorcycle rider attached a magnetic explosive device to her car and sped away. Within seconds, the device exploded with a thunderous sound, setting the car on fire.
