Firearms seized, 3 BJP leaders
held in Gujarat

Three Bharatiya Janata Party leaders, including a corporator of Anand municipality, were arrested in connection with seizure of firearms at Sarsa village in Gujarat's Anand district on Monday, police said.

Sixteen revolvers and pistols, a few of them made in the United States, were recovered from a poultry farm at the village, the police said.

The police came across the arms when they were investigating the murder of a Congress leader, Babubhai Patel, they said.

During interrogation, one of the arrested confessed that the firearms were procured from the vice-president of the party's Anand unit, police added.
