According to Varun Dahiya, assistant commissioner of police (Crime), Faridabad, Dr Shakil had rented the Fatehpur Taga house from the imam about eight months ago.
“We have found two houses that were rented by the accused. The ammonium nitrate was recovered from the cleric’s property. We are questioning Maulana Istaq, but it is too early to share further details,” Dahiya said.
