Police have told MiD DAY that certain media reports about a waiter of a Colaba restaurant being involved in the Mumbai terror attacks are false.
It had been reported that 8 kg of RDX had been found from the bag of a waiter of Gokul restaurant near the Taj Mahal Hotel, who had joined work a week before November 26 and left the day before the attack.
But the police have said that Gokul's employees mistakenly thought that the bag containing 8 kg of RDX belonged to the waiter. That's when the Crime Branch was tipped off about the waiter.
Employees also told the police that the waiter had been making several overseas calls after midnight.
But the police ran a check on the waiter's background and found that he was making calls to his relatives in Bangladesh. And the bag too didn't belong to him.
Additional Commissioner of Police (crime) Deven Bharti told MiD DAY the entire theory of the waiter being a suspect is fake. "The seized bag containing RDX belonged to the terrorists and the waiter has nothing to do with the attacks," added Bharti. |
