 Rameshwaram Cafe Blast Case: NIA Arrests Key Conspirator

The NIA's move comes after a significant breakthrough in the case, with the arrest of Muzammil Shareef, a key conspirator in the blast, on Wednesday. Shareef was apprehended by NIA teams during crackdowns at 18 locations across Karnataka, Tamil Nadu, and Uttar Pradesh, as per a statement.

According to NIA investigations, Shareef had provided logistic support to the two wanted accused in the case, involving an IED explosion at the Rameshwaram Cafe located at ITPL Road, Brookefield, Bengaluru, on March 1. The blast resulted in injuries to several people, including customers and hotel staff members, and caused extensive damage to the property.
