MUMBAI: Police in Mumbai said on Sunday they have arrested two men they say were preparing to attack several targets in the financial hub, including the offices of energy firm Oil and Natural Gas Corp.
“We believe they were taking instructions from across the border to attack three or four targets in Mumbai,” said Vinesh Agarwal, an inspector with Mumbai’s anti-terrorism squad
“They are being interrogated,” he said.
The men were identified as Abdul Lateef and Riyaz Ali, Agarwal said.
Security in Mumbai has been tight since a bombing in neighbouring Pune city last month that killed 16 people, the first major militant strike since the 2008 attacks on Mumbai.
