A green colour Scorpio SUV laden with as many as 20 gelatin sticks was found abandoned near Mukesh Ambani s multi-storey home Antilia on February 25.
In a fresh revelation in the Antilia bomb scare case, investigations have revealed that the Telegram channel through which Jaish-Ul-Hind had claimed the responsibility for the explosives-laden SUV parked near Mukesh Ambani s house was created inside Delhi s Tihar jail.Â
According to intelligence sources, agencies probing the case have come across evidence suggesting that the mobile number which was used to create the Telegram channel was being used inside the Tihar jail.
Jaish-Ul-Hind, however, had later claimed that it was not involved in the case which is now being probed by the National Investigation Agency (NIA).
