Two men hailing from Kashmir were detained in Alwar, as they apparently resembled the sketches of the suspects in the Delhi high court blast case.
Abdul Gani (45) and Miyan Ahemad (35), hailing from a village in Anantnag, were detained on Friday evening from Kishangarh Bas area after some people reported that their faces resembled the sketches of the blast suspects released by the Delhi police, Additional Superintendent of Police Mahendra said.
However, primary investigations suggest that they were not involved in any suspicious activity, he said.
The two men were interrogated by senior police officers last night and their identities have been verified, the SP said.

Meanwhile, two persons were detained in Mumbai and questioned in connection with the Delhi high court bomb blast but were later allowed to go, the police said on Saturday.
"Yes, they were questioned. However, they do not seem to be connected (with the Delhi blast) and were allowed to go," Maharashtra Anti-Terrorism Squad chief Rakesh Maria said.
The detention was on the basis of the sketches of two suspected bomb planters released by the Delhi police, he said.
The blast on September 7 at the Delhi high court killed 13 people and injured 88.
