NEW DELHI: The Lashkar-e-Taiba (LeT) sponsored terror module busted here on Wednesday had planned to attack a crowded locality with bombs, home minister P Chidambaram said.

They were planning to detonate a bomb or more than one bomb in a crowded locality, he said adding more details would come after their detailed questioning.
They will be produced before courts in Delhi and other respective states, he said.
The home minister congratulated central agencies and police of three states involved in the successful operation to bust the LeT sponsored terrorist module.
