Airports on alert for Maulvi's son

Vadodara Feb. 23. All airports in the country have been alerted to prevent any attempt to escape by Sayeed, son of Maulvi Hussain Umarji, the alleged mastermind of the Godhra train carnage, police said here today.

Sayeed, whom police wanted to interrogate, went underground after his father's involvement in the carnage was revealed following his confession regarding hawala transactions from abroad, police told PTI.

The Special Investigation Team (SIT) was considering invoking POTA against those persons in this case who had been granted bail by the court, police sources added.

Police reportedly traced the computer in which details of money received through hawala transactions from abroad were stored but are yet to seize the computer.
