In connection with the Mangaluru blast case, the Enforcement Directorate is carrying out searches at various locations in the Shivamogga district of Karnataka on Wednesday.

Meanwhile, in the pressure cooker blast case which occurred on 19 November various searches are being conducted at the houses of suspected terrorists including the main accused Mohammed Shariq’s house.

“ED officials are in the area where the houses of suspected terrorists Shariq, Maz Muneer, and Mateen are located in Thirthahalli (Shivamogga). Their houses are being searched. Officers are also collecting information from neighboring houses,” Home Minister Araga Jnanendra on Wednesday said.
