NEW DELHI, Aug. 13 (Xinhua) -- Some 61 trucks loaded with over 300 tons of explosives have gone missing in the central Indian state of Madhya Pradesh, a senior police official said Friday.
"The trucks were sent from a state-owned factory, Rajasthan Explosives and Chemicals Limited, in Dholpur to a private company called Ganesh Explosives in the state's Sagar district. But it never reached there," the official said.
A massive search is on to track down the trucks as fear is mounting that if the explosives, including detonators and gelatin sticks, reach the wrong hands it could be devastating, he added.
Meanwhile, Rajasthan Explosives and Chemicals Limited has claimed that it can't be blamed for this disappearance as it sent explosives only in trucks authorized by the company.
"We hand over the explosives to those who have the license. And they then dispatch it on their truck. Now, whatever happens to that explosive thereafter, we are not responsible for that," Y.C. Upadhyay of the company said.

Yes I occasionally lose my sock in the wash but it always shows up in the sofa cushion crack. I just wonder where this will show up. Sixty one pedicabs all in a row outside the urban areas would be quite noticable. Sixty one pantechnicons could be seen by satellite even with out GPS. I thinkyou are right. They got lost exactly where they were supposed to be lost. :marchmellow:

Is there any follow up on this story? Is no one (at least) upset at the missing drivers and their trucks, not to mention the minor detail of all that explosive?!??! Reminds me of some of the reports of missing nukes and fission materials in the USA and elsewhere.....always spoken of as if they were clerical oversight and never followed-up on. Relax, everything is under control......as you soon will be too! :hello: More details:

More than a month after they began probing the case of missing explosives, the Madhya Pradesh Police have finally got the list of 22 lorries used in transportation.

Armed with the details, they seized four of these lorries from Rajgarh town, the district where main accused Jaikishan Aswani has a facility to store explosives.

Aswani had indented the explosives from Rajasthan Explosives and Chemicals Company (RECL) in the name of Ganesh Explosives, a company he did not own and whose license had already expired.

The four empty lorries were lying abandoned for more than a month but the police seized them late on Friday only after confirming that they were registered to carry the explosives. The lorries are actually specialized containers, modified according to the guidelines for transporting explosives

IG (Sagar Range) Anvesh Mangalam told The Sunday Express that as much as 370 tonne of explosives were purchased in the name of Ganesh Explosives, located a few kilometres from Sagar town, in 61 consignments but never reached the destination.

Rajgarh SP Asha Mathur said Aswani is a resident of Bhilwara in Rajasthan but owned a facility in Rajgarh. She said more details about Aswani were being collected.

The police have made no arrests so far but have kept Devendra Singh Thakur, the owner of Ganesh Explosives, under watch. It was Thakur who had first alleged that even though the licence of Ganesh Explosives had expired Aswani was purchasing explosives in its name.

The police suspect Thakur and Aswani worked in partnership for some time before things went wrong between them. "He identifies himself as a victim not an accused," Mangalam said of Thakur.

The police believe Aswani with his Rajasthan-based relative Shivcharan Chheda diverted the explosives headed for Sagar to people into illegal mining. The police are not ruling out the possibility that the explosives could have even fallen into the hands of anti-national elements.

However, it's surprising that the police have not made much headway in the case though they claim to have got support from the Rajasthan Police. Not even one driver or cleaner of these lorries has been taken into custody, leave aside the main accused or his accomplices.
