Udhagamandalam (TN): A substantial number of
explosive materials, including 38 gelatine sticks, were seized
from a house near Gudalur, about 60 KMs from here on Tuesday, and
one person arrested in this connection, police said.
Based on a tip-off, police raided the house of one
Subramani at Keelnadugani and found gelatine sticks, 118
detonators and 155 fusewires there, police said.
Since the explosives were kept without valid documents,
Subramani was taken into custody, they said, adding he was
supplying them to those who were engaged in illegal mining,
particularly in Devala area.
