New Delhi: Sleuths from Delhi Police's Special Cell raided the Bhalswa Dairy area here for about two hours and recovered two hand grenades and some other weapons from a house on Friday. This comes a day after the arrest of two terror suspects from Delhi's Jahangirpuri by the Delhi Police's Special Cell on Thursday.
