“India Pune bakery blast man found guilty”

SNIPPET: “A court in India has delivered a guilty verdict against a man for plotting a bomb blast at a German bakery in the western city of Pune in 2010.

The blast targeted the bakery when it was full of tourists and students, killing 17 people and wounding 64. Five foreigners were among the dead.

Mirza Himayat Baig, who belonged to a banned militant group, will be sentenced on Thursday.

Six other suspects are still at large, police said.

The prosecution said the blast was planned at a meeting in Colombo where Mr Baig, a resident of Maharashtra state, was given bomb-making training.

The defence had maintained that Mr Baig was not in Pune when the explosion happened on 13 February 2010.

He was arrested the following September after investigators found a cache of explosives at his home in Latur in Maharashtra.”
