Delhi on red alert as 3 terrorists flee from police custody

Delhi has been put on red alert as three Pakistani militants, who were arrested for their alleged involvement in the December 2000 attack on Red Fort, escaped while being taken to the GB Pant hospital here on Saturday evening.
They were to be handed over to the Foreigners Regional Registration Office (FRRO) for deportation to Pakistan.
Delhi Police Sunday released photographs of the three Pakistani terrorists who escaped from a city hospital and announced a cash reward of Rs.50,000 each for information leading to their arrest.
'Any clue pertaining to their location can be given to the ACP (assistant commissioner of police) Special Cell. A reward of Rs.50,000 each will be given on their arrest,' a police official said.
The three terrorists - Abdul Razzak, 61, Rafaket Ali, 55, and Mohammad Saddique, 55, managed to give the Foreigners Regional Registration (FRRO) officials a slip at the G.B. Pant Hospital in New Delhi area Saturday.
The Delhi Police is now preparing a fresh case against the trio for violating the restraint order of the Foreigners Act.
The three had been arrested in 2000 along with 17 kg of RDX and 50 kg of heroin following which the court had sentenced them.
