Bangalore: Attack Foiled, Militant Arrested

Bangalore police foiled a major terror plot with the arrest of a suspected militant from Jammu and Kashmir who had plans of attacking the city airport as well as office of the IT major Infosys.

This is not the first time that militants have tried to target India's IT capital. Intelligence reports had earlier revealed the existence of Lashker-e-Taiba (LeT) cadres in Karnataka with a motive to destabilize India's IT Industry.

One AK-47 assault rifle, 300 rounds of ammunition, 4 AK-47 magazines, SIM cards, a satellite phone and a few documents, were found from the arrested militant..

The arrest comes just over a year after the December 28, 2005, terror strike at Indian Institute of Science, Bangalore campus.
