Abu Salem, the prime accused in the 1993 Mumbai blasts, was brought to Manmad in Nashik district by train from New Delhi on Saturday amid tight security.
The video shows Salem getting off the train surrounded by police as a large crowd gathered at the station. He was then transferred to a waiting police vehicle outside and later taken to Nashik Road Central Jail.
The arrival of the gangsters at Manmad railway station was highly confidential. He was taken from the national capital via the New Delhi-Bengaluru-Karnataka Express and then sent to the Nashik Road Central Jail by road amid tight security, knock down the report said.
Salem, who is currently serving a life sentence for his role in the blasts, last month appealed to the Bombay High Court seeking to block his transfer from Talohar Central Prison to Nashik Central Prison citing “security concerns”.
On June 25, his initial appeal was rejected by the court, but the court directed prison authorities to postpone his transfer until July 3.
