The prime accused in the case related to hand grenade blast at BJP leader Manoranjan Kalia's Jalandhar residence has been arrested from Delhi, a top Punjab Police official said on Saturday.
Saidul Ameen, a resident of Amroha in Uttar Pradesh, was nabbed with the support of central agencies and Delhi Police, he said.
"In a major breakthrough in Jalandhar grenade attack case, Jalandhar Commissionerate Police, with support from central agencies and Delhi Police, have successfully arrested Saidul Ameen (a resident of Amroha, Uttar Pradesh) from Delhi," Director General of Police Gaurav Yadav said in an X post.
