Telegraph reports that more than 60 people were injured in the attacks. The report quoting Police sources mentioned there was prior information about ULFA’s plan to trigger explosions. After the October 30, 2008-serial blasts, Security Forces (SFs) had indicated that they had information about possible attacks. In December 2008, the Unified Command structure said it had inputs about “subversive activities” in December 2008 and January 2009. Assam Chief Minister Tarun Gogoi, while visiting the bomb blast site at Bhangagarh area, admitted that it was a failure on the part of the SFs. The Chief Minister, however, mentioned that it was really difficult to think that someone could plant a bomb in a small shop. “All we have to do now is improve our intelligence network and for this we will need the support of the people,” he said.

United Liberation Front of Asom (ULFA) militants triggered serial bomb blasts in three different areas of Guwahati city, killing five persons, including a minor, and injuring 50 others on January 1, according to Assam Tribune. Of the five dead, two were identified as Amal Das (45) and Kohil Sheikh (7). The first explosion took place around 2:25 PM (IST) in Birubari followed by high-intensity explosions in the Bhootnath area (5:25PM) and Bhangagarh area (5:40PM). The blasts were triggered hours before the scheduled arrival of Union Home Minister P. Chidambaram. “From prima facie evidences collected from the spot, it appears to be the handiwork of suspected ULFA militants,” said Additional Superintendent of Police of Guwahati City, Debojit Deori. “The Birubari bomb, which was planted in a GMC dustbin near the Assam Association of Deaf office, was a low-intensity one. However, the subsequent blasts were aimed to cause maximum damage as they were planted in crowded areas,” added Deori. Another unnamed Police official claimed that the bomb in the Bhootnath area was planted in a bicycle. Director-General of Police (DGP) G.M. Srivastav told The Hindu: “We had information that some cadres of the ULFA’s 709 battalion have entered the city to trigger blasts and we were hot on their trail. Under pressure in the form of stepped-up security, they dumped one bomb at a garbage bin in Birubari locality.” The DGP said the ULFA wanted to demonstrate its presence ahead of Chidambaram’s visit.

The Guwahati Police on January 2 released the photograph of Pranjal Deka alias Biju Saraniya alias Bhambhal, a cadre of the United Liberation Front of Asom (ULFA)’s 709th battalion, who according to security agencies, masterminded all the three blasts in Guwahati on January 1, reports Assam Tribune. Additional Superintendent of Police (City), Joyshree Khersa, said that Deka, who hails from Dwarkuchi village in Baksa District, is still holed up in the city along with at least five other ULFA militants. “Combing operation is on and we have intensified vigil across the State,” Khersa said, adding that Deka is wanted in connection with several other recent blasts. The Hindu adds that Trinitrotoluene was used in the three improvised explosive device blasts in Guwahati. Experts of the State Forensic Science Department revealed this to the State Home Department after preliminary examinations of the blast sites and laboratory analysis of the blast remnants.

Assam Police arrested a United Liberation Front of Asom (ULFA) cadre, Sanjeev Talukdar, from Rangiya, reports Assam Tribune. He is suspected to have supplied the explosives which were used in the January 1 serial bomb blasts in Guwahati. Folllowing Sanjeeb’s confession, several other militants were arrested.

Police claimed that the deal between Pranjal and Sanjeeb was being co-ordinated by Khagen Kalita, self-styled ‘Sergeant Major’ of the outfit’s ‘709 battalion’ over phone.

According to Telegraph, Assam Home Department said that the State Government had pointed out to Union Government that several outfits, including ULFA, All Adivasi National Liberation Army (AANLA) and Black Widow (BW), were taking refuge in the camps of the National Socialist Council of Nagaland - Isak-Muivah (NSCN-IM) and National Socialist Council of Nagaland - Khaplang (NSCN-K) in the neighbouring State of Nagaland. While some senior ULFA cadres were carrying out their activities from NSCN-K camps, militants belonging to the other two outfits were being hosted by the NSCN-IM in its camps. “However, given that the government is in a ceasefire with the two Naga outfits, it is Delhi’s responsibility to ensure that their camps are not misused,” a source said.
