A sessions court on Monday found Mirza Himayat Baig guilty of criminal conspiracy and other offences in the 2010 Pune German Bakery bomb blast case. The quantum of punishment for Himayat Baig will be pronounced on April 18.
The 2010 blast had rocked Pune three years ago. The terror attack had killed 17 people, injured 64 and wrecked the popular eatery. It was the first major terror strike in Pune that dented its tag of being a peaceful city.
Following several months of investigations, the Maharashtra Anti-Terrorism Squad (ATS) had arrested Mirza Himayat Baig (alias Hassan alias Yusuf Sir), then 29, and a resident of Beed, from a bus stop in Pune.
On December 4, 2010, investigating officer ACP Vinod Satav filed a 2,500-page chargesheet against Baig and six others — Zabiuddin Ansari, Fayyaz Kagzi, Yasin Bhatkal, Iqbal and Riyaz Bhatkal and Mohsin Chaudhari. The six co-accused are still at large.
The attack on German Bakery, located in upmarket Koregaon Park area and referred to as Pune's very own Cafe Leopold, had proved that Pune was very much on the terror radar. The attack had highlighted the need for strengthening security and surveillance system in the city.
It was around 7 pm on February 13, 2010 that the powerful blast ripped through the eatery packed with visitors. Five foreigners were among the 17 killed in the terror attack — the first after the 26/11 attacks of Mumbai in 2008.
Raja Thakare was the special public prosecutor in the case. Baig was defended by senior lawyer A Rehman and advocate Kayanat Shaikh.
The prosecution has examined 103 witnesses in the case. Baig is in judicial custody at the Yerawada Central Jail. The arguments in the case were concluded on March 11 and Additional Sessions Judge N P Dhote, who is hearing the case, had fixed April 15 as the day of the verdict.
