THE Vasai Manikpur Police have recovered four hi-tech imported guns, which were hidden under ground under the bridge near Sham Shan Ghat, Vasai east. The cops were informed of the guns during a cleaning operation by the employees of Navghar Manikpur Nagar Parisad Employees. According to police officials, the guns cost around Rs 4.5 lakh.
Senior Inspector, P Mandre of Vasai Manikpur Police Station told Sunday MiD-DAY "One of these guns have a mark which confirms that it belongs to the US army while the others are only used by Black Cat Commandos & officers of Special Security Group."
He also confirmed of terrorist activity could be a motive behind such weapons being used. "No ordinary criminal or local goon would use such weapons. The Anti Terrorist Squad in Mumbai is also trying to find some links behind this seizure and we hope to be successful."
The cops also suspect that these weapons had been hidden about four months back since they were in excellent condition and could be used immediately.
