`Israeli diplomat attack: Probe in right track`

Tal Yehoshua wife of Israeli Defence Attache, who is also working in the Embassy and an Indian driver was among the four people injured in the blast.

New Delhi: Government on Wednesday said the probe
into the terror attack on an Israeli diplomat was going on
right track but refused to comment on reports which suggested
Iran`s involvement in it.

"The investigation is progressing in the right direction.
Some good intelligence have been gathered and the Delhi Police
which is in-charge of investigation is working with our
agencies," Home Minister P Chidambaram said on the progress of
the investigation into the terror attack here on February 13.

Asked to comment on a media report that suggested Iran`s
involvement in the attack, he said, "I don`t wish to make
comment on what another country`s agencies are saying."

Israeli daily Ha`aretz had quoted an unnamed Israeli
security officer as saying that Indian intelligence agencies
have "considerable evidence" of Iran`s involvement in the
terror strike on the Israeli diplomat but are not releasing it
in a bid to avoid public confrontation with Tehran.

The Home Minister said the Delhi Police, which has been
investigating the case, conveyed to him that they were
confident of cracking the case.

Tal Yehoshua (40), wife of Israeli Defence Attache, who is
also working in the Embassy and an Indian driver of the
embassy vehicle, was among the four people injured in the
blast after a magnetic bomb stuck to it went off.
