gblastBelagavi, Jun 21: Nasir Rangrez (38), the key accused in the 2008 serial bomb blasts in Ahmedabad, was picked up by the Gujarat Anti-Terrorist Squad (ATS) from Belagavi with the help of the local police on Sunday.

According to DCP (Crime and Traffic) Amarnath Reddy, the ATS team headed by Inspector Bhavesh arrested Rangrez from his house at Bhadkal Galli, where he had been living with his family for the past 3-4 years.

The 21 serial bomb blasts, which rocked the Gujarat capital on July 26, 2008, claimed 56 lives and left more than 200 injured.

Sources said Rangrez had shifted his base after the blasts and had settled with his wife and two daughters in Belagavi. The family was eking out a living by making chapattis and distributing them to restaurants. Rangrez used to drive an autorickshaw, and supply chapattis to hotels in a two-wheeler.

Sources said Rangrez carried out the blasts to avenge the post-Godhra riots.
