Ahmedabad, September 3:: Police have seized computer hard drives from a city cybercafe where key suspects of Ahmedabad serial blasts are suspected to have sent some e-mails.

The city crime branch officials on Wednesday said that they were hopeful of getting important leads on the absconding two accused --Abdul Subhan and Qayamuddin-- after the seizure during a search operation here.

"We have seized some hard drives from a cybercafe in Paldi area of the city and have sent them for analysis to the Directorate of Forensic Science (DFS) in Gandhinagar. The report is expected in a week or two," a crime branch official associated with the investigation said.

"The information from the hard drive might give us some new leads on Subhan and Qayamuddin who had sent some emails from this cybercafe before July 26 blasts. Our information is based on statements of some witnesses who had seen them in the cybercafe," the officer said.

On Tuesday, the crime branch also recovered incriminating literature containing provocative articles and informations on conducting Terror training camps.

The officer said that the items seized by the team were significant.

"One of the reports is authored by the alleged serial blasts mastermind Mufti Abu Bashir. We believe that some of the articles in the magazines found are written by people connected with SIMI," the officer alleged.

Though most of the literature found was commonly available in the market, some documents were meant only for private circulation. An article penned by Bashir is called Nishan-e-Raha.

Some of the literature had detailed description on how to plan and conduct a terror training camp. One of the articles also described in detail how a Narco analysis test was conducted.

The documents recovered contained number of editions of a Hindi magazine named Tahrik published from Kota in Rajashtan. There was some literature published from Allahabad and other parts of the country, which were authored by different writers.

According to crime branch officials the documents were found from a well near the Sidi Sayyed mosque in Laldarwaja area of the city.

The documents were wrapped in a plastic bag by one of the accused in the serial blasts case and thrown into the well after the blast, the officials had said.

The documents were recovered after a witness informed the police about incident, they added.

Our investigators and security agents are proving that they are not behind Scotland Yard in solving the ghastly and murderous attacks by jehadi barbarians.The identities of these skilled officers and invetigating personnel must be kept strict secret and the government must give them suitable rewatds for their excellent service and all state governments and central government must make use of their services to solve all unsolved terror attacks and to prevent deadly terror attacks in future by anti-national and agents of our enemies.The investigators must also expose the sympathisers of these terrorists in political parties and public life and expose the colluders of these terrorist murderers in government and other places as well.
