On Wednesday, the District Special Team (DST) seized 150 kg of ammonium nitrate on the National Highway in Tonk. The accused were remanded to police custody for five days. SP Meena said, “According to preliminary investigations, the seized illegal explosive material was being used for mining work in hilly areas. The police are still questioning both accused. Some people have also been detained in connection with the case”.
The SP added, “After the arrest of two youths from the Karwar police station area of Bundi district in Rajasthan on Wednesday in a luxury car carrying 150 kg of illegal explosives, including ammonium nitrate, national and state investigative agencies are now seen in action.”
On Thursday morning, the NIA team reached the Baroni police station in Tonk to question the arrested accused regarding the explosives. “The DST carried out the operation by setting up a checkpoint on Tonk-Jaipur NH 52 in the Baroni police station area. The two people in the car, Surendra Patwa and Surendra Mochi, residents of Karwar in Bundi district, were arrested”, Meena said.
“To mislead the police, the 150 kg of ammonium nitrate were packed in urea bags. When the DST questioned the two people in the car, they said they were carrying urea for agricultural work. However, the 200 dangerous explosive cartridges and 1,100 safety fuse wires found in the car revealed otherwise. Upon detailed inspection of the bags, it was found that they contained ammonium nitrate”, Meena added.
Deputy SP Mrityunjay Mishra said, “The police are also investigating whether the explosives were being transported for any destructive activity”. (ANI)
