The official also informed that these three have also been brought to Delhi and produced before a magistrate who has sent them to police remand till April 2. Waqas had already been sent on police custody for ten days.

Large quantity of explosives, timer devices, detonators and other material which hinted that they were preparing for a "spectacular" strike was recovered from the three men who were part of IM's Rajasthan module.
