TF arrests one in Muzaffarnagar, UP with four timer bombs

In Muzaffarnagar, UP, The Special Task Force (STF) in Meerut achieved a significant breakthrough as they apprehended a youth identified as Javed from the Khalapar area, recovering four timer bombs from his possession. The arrest came after meticulous investigation and intelligence gathering, shedding light on a potentially dangerous plot. Javed is currently undergoing interrogation regarding his involvement in the manufacturing of improvised explosive devices (IEDs), with bomb squad assistance summoned from Meerut to handle the recovered explosives.

Sources within the STF revealed that Javed confessed to crafting the timer bombs himself and disclosed that he had received orders from an unidentified woman. Investigators are actively pursuing leads to identify and locate this individual. Javed's background reveals a concerning lineage, as he reportedly learned bomb-making techniques from his grandfather, who had expertise in crafting firecrackers. With additional scrutiny from intelligence agencies and the Anti-Terrorism Squad (ATS), the investigation aims to unravel any potential connections, including those extending to Nepal, where Javed's maternal uncle resides.
