New York - Indian intelligence officials have named a suspect they believe may be linked to the Mumbai rail blasts, according to a report on CNBC on Tuesday.
Officials quoted in the report say Dawood Ibrahim, an Indian Muslim with ties to al-Qaeda, was considered a suspect in the attacks.
The US treasury department designated Ibrahim as a terrorist as part of its international sanctions programme, CNBC said.
The seven bombings killed at least 135 people and injured over 300.
No one has claimed responsibility for the bombings.
