Abdul Karim Tunda, Lashkar-e-Taiba terrorist, arrested
Tunda, a top Lashkar terrorist, had been last arrested in Kenya in 2005 but had fled from the police custody. He had been on the run since. He is wanted in over 40 cases of terror strikes in India.
Abdul Karim Tunda, along with Hafeez Saeed, Mulana Masood Azhar and Dawood Ibrahim, figured in the list of 'top 20 wanted terrorists' which was given to Pakistan by India after the 26/11 attacks.
Tunda, over a period of 16 years, post 1997, has shuttled between Karachi, Kenya and West Asia.
A resident of Pilukawha, Ghaziabad, Tunda shot into prominence with small serial blasts in the national capital between 1995-97. He got the moniker of Tunda after his right hand blew off while making a crude bomb.
