Panaji: The National Investigation Agency
(NIA) officers are yet to arrive in the state to physically
take over the documents related to Goa blast, police said.
Goa police spokesman Atmaram Deshpande told PTI that
NIA team was supposed to arrive today but has not intimated
about their plans.
"They might come at any time as they have already
taken over the case. Goa police have to just hand over the
investigation details," he said.
Deshpande said that Goa police is yet to receive any
intimation about their arrival even as SIT has kept all the
documents ready to be handed over to them.
"There is no need of intimation too, they can come at
any time, may be today evening or tomorrow and take over the
records," he clarified.
NIA on December 16 had written to Goa court intimating
them about taking over Margao blast case from SIT. They had
also informed that two different cases are registered related
to the blast and recovery of explosive substances from a
village near Vasco town on October 16.
