Clean Media Correspondent
New Delhi, Jan 24 (CMC): The Union Home Ministry on Tuesday acknowledged there was a lack of coordination between Delhi Police and Maharashtra ATS in the probe into last year's serial blasts in Mumbai but downplayed the rift between them.
Union Home Secretary RK Singh at the same time said he was "very happy" that the Maharashtra Anti Terrorism Squad (ATS) had cracked the 13/7 blast case. He also said there is a need for a standard operating procedure for inter-state anti-terror operations.
A day after ATS announced a breakthrough, Singh said it had worked out the case on the basis of evidence which will be put through legal procedure.
Singh said in order to bring synergy between various forces, Government has set up the National Counter terrorism Centre(NCTC), which will be made operational soon.
"Besides this we, will call Directors General of Police of various state police forces for drafting a standard operating procedure for such kind of operations," he added.
Singh was answering questions from reporters regarding the arrest of two persons including Naquee Ahmed in connection with 13/7 blasts in which 27 people were killed.
When asked whether competitive politics came in the way of arrest of top terrorists keeping in view the kind of information obtained, Singh said "I had a detailed discussion with ATS Chief (Rakesh Maria) on Saturday. He briefed me about his investigations and the Delhi Police and the IB had already briefed me about their operation, we will get some additional reports".
But, he said the Home Ministry would like to ensure a system whereby different agencies work together rather than separately when they are operating in a particular area.
