VARANASI: The recovery of 150kg of explosive (ammonium nitrate) from a car has brought the men in khaki, who were already on high alert in view of fresh inputs of intelligence agencies, on their toes on Saturday. The youths carrying this explosive managed to escape leaving their car abandoned.

According to the city SP Rahul Raj, on the basis of some inputs the Lanka cops had been checking vehicles near toll plaza of NH-2 (Kolkata-Delhi highway) at Ramna in afternoon. When they stopped a car for checking two people boarded in it came out and before when the cops were busy in checking the car they fled from the scene.

Later, 150kg of ammonium nitrate packed in three plastic bags were recovered from the same car. After this development police seized the car and explosive and took it to police station. Rahul said that efforts to search those youths had been intensified.

The recover of ammonium nitrate in huge quantity was sufficient to leave the cops sweating as this explosive had been used in Kutchehri serial blasts on November 23, 2007 here. The police were maintaining high alert in the district even after completion of parliamentary poll process and massive checking drives were being carried out at the places of police gathering on regular basis in view of the past experiences.
