“We arrested three Lashkar-e-Taiba militants today and recovered bomb-making materials and a pistol from them,” Mumbai’s police chief, A.N. Roy, told reporters, referring to the outlawed Pakistan-based militant group. “These three men were in Mumbai to expand their network. They haven’t carried out any activity, but could have later done some operation,” Roy said.

The three are wanted for crimes committed in Kashmir, including looting a bank and bomb blasts, police said.
