Abdul Karim Tunda, alleged Lashkar-e-Taiba bomb expert, has told his interrogators that Iqbal Kana, the biggest dealer of Fake Indian Currency Notes (FICN), used to get the counterfeit currency notes from a Pakistani army officer and used his own network to push them into India.
According to reports, Tunda has revealed that his work was to collect, disburse and push fake Indian currency notes through his network.
A Delhi Court today sent Tunda to four days police custody in connection with 37 bomb blast cases across the country.
Tunda was produced in the court of Metropolitan Magistrate Jay Thareja, who decided to hold the proceedings in-camera, after a lawyer started shouting slogans against the terrorist in the packed court room leading to commotion.
Metropolitan Magistrate Thareja extended his custodial interrogation for four days till August 24.
Tunda, who was captured by the Delhi Police last week, was earlier today slapped at Patiala House court here.
