Central Crime Branch police, who are probing the case, nabbed Danial Prakash alias Prakashm in Tirunelveli village of Tamil Nadu. The police have so far arrested 17 accused in connection with the blast and Prakash is 18th accused.

Police officials said the arrest was made based on information given by Pervez Basha, who was arrested in Tamil Nadu earlier.

In a press release, officials state that Prakash is one of the prime accused and he was active in supplying explosive material that was brought to Bengaluru.

Cops among injured

A bomb explosion of low intensity near the headquarters of the Bharatiya Janata Party at Malleswaram on April 17, 2013 had injured 17 people, including 12 police personnel. The police personnel were in a Karnataka State Reserve Police van stationed on 24-hour election duty.

Two cars and two two-wheelers were gutted, while the police van was damaged in the explosion that shook the densely populated semi-residential area. The 10.20 a.m. blast coincided with the last day of the filing of nominations for the May 5 Assembly polls. The busy street on Malleswaram, which was in the thick of electoral activity, was covered with shattered glass, mostly from broken vehicle window panes.

RSS leader's SIM

Nearly a month after the blast, police had revealed that the SIM card used to trigger the blast belonged to an RSS leader from the Karnataka-Kerala border. The police, had refused to identify the RSS leader.

However, the police has exonerated the SIM-card owner, and ruled out the involvement of a purported right-wing terror group.

Chargsheeted

Bengaluru, Feb 19: Congress MLA UT Khader on Wednesday slammed the Central government over the enactment of the Citizenship (Amendment) Act and said it violates the Constitution.

"The new citizenship amendment bill is unconstitutional. The citizenship cannot be given on cast and creed basis. Because of these things we are fighting against it," he said while speaking to media in Bengaluru.

Opposition along with several non-BJP state governments, including Madhya Pradesh, West Bengal, Kerala, Punjab and Rajasthan have refused to implement the Citizenship Amendment Act (CAA) and the proposed NRC in their respective states.

The CAA grants citizenship to Hindu, Sikh, Jain, Parsi, Buddhist and Christian refugees from Pakistan, Afghanistan and Bangladesh, who came to India on or before December 31, 2014.
