Three days before the civic polls, Mumbai police Monday arrested a man with seven firearms and 12 live rounds of ammunition from a railway terminus in central Mumbai, police said.

"We laid a trap near Kurla Railway Terminus after we were tipped off about this man. The accused, identified as Javed Aalam Mustafa Shabbir, was spotted waiting with the weapons," Additional Police Commissioner (Special Branch) Sunil Paraskar told reporters here.
