Four others hail from different districts of Uttar Pradesh-- Moolchand alias Lala (47) from Raebareli, Zeeshan Qamar (28) from Prayagraj, Md Abu Bakar (23) from Bahraich and Mohammad Amir Javed (31) from Lucknow.The police said Osama and Zeeshan would be taken to Uttar Pradesh's Prayagraj to trace their associate Humaid."Two of the arrested persons Osama and Zeeshan were first taken to Muscat by flight and from there, they reached Pakistan by boat and ship. They were kept at a farmhouse near Gwadar Port where they were provided training to make explosives and operating firearms including AK-47. The training was for around 15 days.

Reaching India, they started working as sleeper cells," the Special Cell Commissioner Neeraj Thakur explained while addressing media yesterday.Osama and Zeeshan told Delhi Police that there were around 14-15 Bengali speaking people with them when they were taken to Pakistan from Muscat.

They were also trained on how to react if they were caught during their mission.Sources further informed that out of the arrested persons, Zeeshan was an MBA holder and had previously worked as an account in Dubai.
