`No link between IISc attack and Delhi blasts'

Staff Reporter

BANGALORE: Bangalore Police Commissioner Ajai Kumar Singh said on Tuesday that there was no link between the October 2005 serial blasts in New Delhi and the attack on the Indian Institute of Science, Bangalore, in December last.

Mr. Singh told reporters that initially there were reports of a link. One of the accused caught by the Delhi Police had connections with the blasts in the Hyderabad Special Task Force office in October 2005. "But we did not find any link with the IISc attack," he said.

Bangalore police have arrested 12 persons in two cases related to the IISc attack.
