| Mumbai: Know Suresh Kumar Dharan and Shiv Narayan Pande? Before the twin blasts in the City, probably you wouldn't have recognised their names. Now, every Mumbaikar worth his salt identifies them as the drivers of the terror
taxis.
Though Dharan, who also worked as a travel agent and lived with his family in Kranti Nagar in Andheri (E), died in the blasts, Pande survived.
Pande, according to his own claim, walked away from his taxi at the Gateway moments before it exploded.
Though Pande’s identity was supposed to be a well-kept secret, the news about his survival leaked to the media.
The police have finally closed ranks and are saying nothing about the critical leads that Pande provided them with, according to a report.
On the record, however, Joint Commissioner of Police (Crime) Satya Pal Singh would only say that the police have sent teams to various places based on Pande's statements. Agencies |
