No Indian in Spain terror conspiracy

NEW DELHI: No Indian national is involved in an alleged terror plot smashed in Spain, where authorities arrested at least a dozen suspects over the past few days.

Highly placed sources in the government told The Hindu on Monday night that inquiries with Interpol and Spanish authorities revealed that no Indian national was arrested by the Spanish security and law enforcement agencies.

Reports emanating from Europe said that two Indian nationals, along with 12 Pakistanis, were arrested on suspicion of planning a terror attack in Barcelona. Their identities were not revealed by the Spanish authorities.
