Kant said doctors from all disciplines, including orthopedics and general
medicine, and forensics are examining him.

"We have not started questioning him. We will begin questioning him once he is
cleared for it by the medical team," he said.

Kant also said which provisions of law, including UAPA, should be invoked
against the suspect -- Shahrukh Saifi -- and whether there were others behind
the fire incident, would be decided after he was questioned.

"We are happy that we were able to trace him well in time. It was due to a
combined effort by the SIT, central intelligence agencies and Maharashtra
police," he said.




Regarding the persons injured in the arson attack on April 2 night, the State
Police Chief said that one of them had 35-40 per cent burns while the rest were
stable.

Saifi was taken to the medical college for examination in a four-vehicle convoy
which included a bus full of police commandos.

At the hospital too, tight security arrangements were in place to avoid any
member of the public or the press coming close to the suspect, according to
visuals shown on TV channels.

The on-road journey of Saifi to Kozhikode from Ratnagiri witnessed some dramatic
events early Thursday morning.

After entering Kerala by road in the wee hours, as the police SUV carrying Saifi
in the rear seat was passing through Kannur district it one of its tyres burst
and the vehicle could not be used.



Subsequently, after waiting on the roadside for more than an hour, a substitute
vehicle arranged by the Edakkad police in Kannur district for onward journey did
not start, delaying the journey further.

Another vehicle had to be arranged before the police team and the suspect could
proceed to Kozhikode.

On the night of April 2, an unidentified man had set fire to passengers after
pouring petrol on them when the train reached Korapuzha bridge near Elathur.
Nine people suffered burn injuries and are undergoing treatment at various
hospitals.

The bodies of a woman, an infant, and a man, who went missing from the train
after the fire, were recovered from the tracks near Elathur railway station.
Police believe they fell off the train or attempted to get down after seeing the
fire.



According to police, the incident was probably pre-planned as he was carrying
petrol in a bottle in his bag.

Subsequent to the tragic incident on April 2, the Kerala Police had constituted
a Special Investigation Team (SIT) to identify and apprehend the assailant.

After a sketch of the assailant was released by Kerala Police based on the
statements of passengers who witnessed the incident, the suspect was caught from
Ratnagiri by Maharashtra ATS.
