No Hand in Blasts: ULFA


The banned ULFA on Friday denied involvement in the three serial explosions that rocked Guwahati on Thursday killing three and wounding over 50. a statement issued by the outfit's central publicity committee spokesman Anjan Borthakur claimed that the blasts were triggered by "enemies of the Assamese people."

He added that ULFA was in no way involved in the blasts.

"In the October 30 blasts too, the ULFA was initially blamed but later it was found that another outfit was behind the explosions. In yesterday's case also, the truth will soon come out", the statement read.

The outfit accused authorities of blaming ULFA for the blasts with "an ulterior motive of presenting the organisation as a terrorist outfit both in Assam and in the international arena to sabotage its cause."

"We extend our heart-felt condolences to the family members of those killed in the blasts and also pray for the speedy recovery of those injured", the communiqué added.
