Some calls were traced to PCOs in RK Puram, Lajpat Nagar and N Delhi dist.

Records of cell phones that the Ayodhya terrorists used before the July 5 attack on the disputed Ram Janmabhoomi site have helped the joint investigating team zero in on a few numbers in Delhi and Mumbai that the terrorists were in contact with.

Some calls were traced to PCOs in the Capital’s R.K. Puram, Lajpat Nagar and New Delhi district and though the Delhi police is not saying anything, there are indications that some arrests may be made on Tuesday.

Investigators in Mumbai have learnt that the terrorists made at least 50 calls to their contacts in the city hours before the attack. There is a possibility that the arms used in the attack were also smuggled from Mumbai.

The UP DGP said a Delhi-based “Net addict” (identified as Shrivastav) who used to chat with one of the terrorists on the Net was being interrogated.
