Bangalore: The arrest and interrogation of Lashkar-e-Toiba-linked Nasir Tadiyandavede, the prime accused in the July 25, 2008, Bangalore serial blasts have revealed intricate linkages between several key radical Islamists accused in acts of terrorism seen around the country since 2006.

Apart from throwing light on half a dozen crimes committed in his home state of Kerala, the arrest of Nasir Tadiyandavede has revealed that key former SIMI leaders, members of the Indian Mujahideen and Nasir’s own group working behind the facade of a Sufi organisation ‘Noorisa Tariqat’ often crossed paths and shared notes on their activities.

The loosely knit network of radical Islamists spread around the country, with the encouragement of external terrorist outfits like the Lashkar-e-Toiba, are linked to a series of blasts that occurred around the country between 2006 and 2008.
