The Ahmedabad crime branch has obtained sketches of seven people who might be involved in the Jaipur bomb explosions in an effort to gather leads in the Ahmedabad serial blasts on July 26, a senior police official said on Tuesday.
"We have obtained seven sketches of suspects who could be involved in Jaipur bomb blasts. We are studying them for any link with Ahmedabad serial blasts," Joint Commissioner of Police Ashish Bhatia said.
The sketches will be studied by our experts and if needed, might be shown to the eye-witnesses, he said.
The crime branch has already prepared three sketches of possible suspects who could have planted bombs in the city.
Meanwhile, the Ahmedabad police conducted combing operations in various parts of the city on Monday.

The Surat police is also questioning various suspects to get more information.
