NIA and Jharkhand police achieved a breakthrough in the Burdwan blast case when an alleged Jamat -ul-Mujahideen Bangladesh (JMB) terrorist was arrested in Pakur district of Jharkhand.

Lal Mohammed alias Ibrahim Sheikh was wanted by NIA in connection with the October, 2014, bomb blast at Burdwan and was arrested on Saturday along with four crude bombs, a revolver and some ammunition, NIA claimed here.

A pen drive containing jihadi material and ideology of banned terror outfit JMB is also alleged to have been recovered from him, they added.
