September 10th, 2011 - 2:14 pm ICT by IANS  

Srinagar, Sep 10 (IANS) Investigations into the Delhi High Court blast are continuing and facts are being verified after five people from Jammu and Kashmir were detained, said the police Saturday.

“The questioning of the detained persons is going on. I cannot tell you the exact details, but we are in the process of verifying facts and corroborating evidence,” state Director General of Police (DGP) Kuldeep Khoda told IANS here.

“One local businessman detained for verification after he landed in Srinagar from Delhi has been allowed to go home yesterday only,” he said.

“We are coordinating with Rajasthan Police,” Khoda said as two Kashmiri men were detained Friday in Alwar district of Rajasthan.

A Harkat-ul-Jehadi Islami (HuJI) email sent from a cyber cafe in Kishtwar had owned responsibility for the high court blast. Five people were detained Thursday.

The mail warned of more attacks if 2001 parliament attack convict, Afzal Guru, is hanged. Wednesday’s high court blast has killed 13 people and injured more than 90.
