Delhi police on Wednesday filed a supplementary charge sheet against Lashkar-e-Toiba (LeT) bomb expert Abdul Karim Tunda in connection with a case lodged in 1994 relating to recovery of explosives here.

Special Cell of Delhi police filed its charge sheet before Additional Sessions Judge Bharat Parashar against 72-year-old Tunda saying it would further ‘clarify’ the prosecution’s case regarding charges slapped under stringent Terrorist and Disruptive Activities (Prevention) Act (TADA).

The special cell said that the other five co-accused, who faced trial in the case earlier, were acquitted by a trial court in December 1999 for the alleged offences under TADA Act on ‘tactical grounds’.

It also said the trial court, in its judgement passed in December 1999 against Abdul Haq, Aftab, Abdul Wahid, Afaq and Afran Ahmad had convicted them under section 5 of Explosive Substances Act and under section 120-B (criminal conspiracy) of the IPC.
