New Delhi: Haryana Police on Friday modified the sketches of two suspects in connection with the blasts in the Samjhauta Express after a key witness, Rana Shaukat Ali, denied the involvement of the person whose sketches were released by the police.

Shaukat Ali, who lost five of his children in the blasts, said that the sketches of the person released by the Panipat police is not the one whom he had seen on the Samjhauta Express.

“Going by the accounts of some witnesses, we have brought some modifications in the existing sketches which we had released in Panipat on February 20,” Superintendent of Police (Railways), Haryana, Bharti Arora told PTI.

Arora said some witnesses in the case had given further details about the two suspects on the basis of which some modifications were brought about.

Arora, however, declined to give any further details, saying it would hamper investigations.

Meanwhile, the top brass of the Haryana Police held a closed-door meeting at Panipat to take stock of the progress in the investigations pertaining to the blasts on the train, which claimed 68 lives.
