New Delhi, Nov 12 (IBNS): The National Investigation Agency (NIA) sleuths questioned a soldier of the Sashastra Seema Bal (SSB) who was believed to have given shelter to a Burdwan blast suspect arrested in connection with a terror network exposed by October 2 accidental blast in West Bengal, media reports said.

Sources said the NIA quizzed the SSB personnel for giving shelter to Amjad Ali Sheikh, a Burdwan blast suspect and member of the banned Jamaat -Ul- Mujahideen, Bangladesh.

Sheikh was arrested on Tuesday from West Bengal’s Birbhum district.

Reports said a letter detailing the soldier’s involvement had already been sent to the SSB which is a central police force with the responsibility of guarding India’s border with Nepal and Bhutan.
