NEW DELHI: The Delhi Police Special Cell has questioned two more persons in connection with Parliament Security breach case, an official source said on Thursday.

They had helped Lalit Mohan Jha — alleged to be the brain behind the plan — hide after he went absconding, the source said.

One of the two persons under interrogation originally wanted to be part of the group that breached the Parliament security but “could not come on that day,” the source said.
Police said besides the eight people, who have either been arrested or questioned in the incident till now there were a few more who were the part of online Bhagat Singh Yuva Fan Club, which is now deleted.
Police are trying to access the list of members of the group, the source said.
Jha, a teacher and an NGO member, said he had destroyed the four mobile phones he took from Sagar, Manoranjan, Neelam, and Amol- the four who executed the plan inside and outside the Parliament, but his claim is being verified, the person said.
The CI team has also interrogated Jha to ascertain if he was instructed or guided by any person or organization in their breaching of Parliament security.
Police said that the four accused, who are in police custody for seven days, will be taken to their home towns as part of the investigation.
They will be taken to places where they hold the meetings for the execution of the plan.
“For this, Special Cell has made separate teams, who will take these accused to various locations,” said an official.
In a major security breach on the anniversary of the 2001 Parliament terror attack, two persons — Sagar Sharma and Manoranjan D — jumped into the Lok Sabha chamber from the public gallery during Zero Hour, released yellow gas from canisters, and shouted slogans before being overpowered by the MPs.
Around the same time, two others — Amol Shinde and Neelam Devi — sprayed colored gas from canisters while shouting “tanashahi nahi chalegi” outside Parliament premises.
