Jeep carrying huge quantity of dynamite and gelatine seized

A jeep carrying a large amount of explosives including 400 dynamite rods and 50 kg of gelatine was seized by the police today along with its driver during a search operation on Khandwa road, a police official said.
Documents related to the explosives recovered from the jeep disclosed that a vehicle with a different registration number was supposed to transport it.
However, since the explosives and documents were found in a jeep with a different registration number, it led to suspicion, Khargone District's Superintendent of Police (SP) Amit Singh told reporters.
The jeep was carrying 400 dynamite rods and 50 kg gelatine, he said, adding it was brought from Deshgaon (Khandwa) to Khargone's Lakhapura area.

Though documents recovered from the jeep mentioned registration number MP-12 GA 0849 as the vehicle in which the explosives were supposed to have transported, the registration number of the vehicle from which explosives were seized is MP-12 CA 2519, he said.
He said that the police is probing the matter seriously and the vehicle driver, who has been identified as Narayan, is being questioned.
A case under relevant sections of the Explosives Act has been filed and further investigations are on, he said.
