It was during this period that four of the co-accused, Yunus Mansuri, Usman Agarbattiwala, Zahid Shaikh and Samsuddin Shaikh visited him and did a recce of the Trauma Centre and the Civil Hospital.
The DCB has termed the presence of Imran and the other co-accused at the Civil Hospital very significant. They said it was during this period that they took decisive steps to orchestrate the blast at the Civil Hospital's Trauma Centre, which claimed 36 lives.
The DCB said the interrogation of the ten accused in the case also revealed that several SIMI activists from across the country had attended the terror training camps near Halol in Gujarat and other places in Kerala, Madhya Pradesh and Karnataka.
