New Delhi: The Khalistan Tiger Force on Monday claimed responsibility for the Ambala RDX Haul, saying that the explosive were sent to terminate Congress leader Sajjan Kumar.
Sajjan Kumar is a key accused in the 1984 anti-Sikh riots.
Earlier on Monday, the Khalistan Tiger Force has issued a letter to the media saying that the RDX haul was the group's doing. The letter also claims that the KTF does not have any ties with the Lashkar e Toiba.
Five kg of explosives and detonators were recovered from a car parked outside the Ambala Cantt Railway Station by the police on October 13.
"There were five kg of RDX and five detonators. Two timers were hidden in the cavity of the power window buttons," said Arun Kampani, DCP, Special Cell, Delhi Police.
Ironically, the same car was given an all clear by the Haryana police when they checked it first. It is only when other specialised teams reached the spot that they found the explosives.
A box of sweets was found lying in the car, which showed that it was purchased from Jammu's Bari Brahmna area besides two newspapers from Jammu and Kashmir.
The Delhi Police had earlier revealed that the explosives found in the abandoned car was meant for banned terror outfit Babbar Khalsa International and was to be used in Delhi.
