Kolkata: In a major breakthrough, West Bengal police arrested the main accused in Burdwan blast, Sajid, a Bangaldeshi national and chief commander of terror group Jamaat-ul-Mujahideen Bangaldesh (JMB).

With the arrest of Sajid, on whose head the National Investigation Agency (NIA) had announced a cash reward of Rs 10 lakh, the exact plan of the terror group is likely to come to fore.

Sajid was arrested by West Bengal Police a couple of days back, official sources said on Saturday but refused to immediately divulge the exact location and circumstances leading to his arrest.

Sajid had been extensively questioned by the police and sleuths of central agencies about the functioning of JMB and its plans within the country and in Bangladesh.
