New Delhi: Four days after the blasts that ripped through Ahmedabad killing 49 people and injuring 180 others, the investigators have claimed a breakthrough in the case.

They said that a single terror organisation was responsible for the Ahmedabad, Bangalore, Jaipur blasts as well as the 21 live bombs that were found and defused in Surat.

And though the Gujarat Police didn't name any organisation, investigations point to a Pakistan hand behind the terror plots.

Seven men accused under POTA are being questoined in Sabarmati Jail. All of them are linked to Dawood Ibrahim aide, Rasool Patti, who is a Pakistan national. Investigators say that there were calls made to Pakistan from the jail immediately after 18 blasts rocked Ahmedabad on Saturday. The police have seized three mobile phones from Sabarmati Jail.

Meanwhile, Surat Police Commissioner RMS Brar confirmed that the Bangalore and Ahmedabad serial blasts as well as the failed attack in Surat, have several similarities.
