MUMBAI ? Indian police said Sunday they had arrested two men for planning to attack a fuel facility and a shopping center in Mumbai, where Pakistani gunmen killed 166 people 15 months ago.

The two are Indian nationals, who took orders from inside Pakistan, Mumbai's anti-terrorism police chief, K.P. Raghuvansh, told reporters.

They intended to target a fuel storage complex owned by state-run energy firm Oil and Natural Gas as well as a popular shopping arcade, he said.

"These two have been in constant touch with their handlers sitting across the border in Pakistan, who want to do something in India," Raghuvansh said. "When we thought they were planning to act, we arrested them."

The Press Trust of India news agency named the two men arrested late Saturday as Abdul Latif Rashid, 29, and Riyaz Ali, 23.

India has blamed the Pakistan-based Islamist group Lashkar-e-Taiba for the November 2008 attacks on luxury hotels, a restaurant and a cultural centre in Mumbai.

Nine of the 10 people, who carried out those attacks, died as security forces fought to regain control of the city. The sole surviving gunman, who is currently on trial, has said he is a Pakistani national.

Last month, 11 people were killed in a blast at a restaurant in the city of Pune, 60 miles (100 kilometers) from Mumbai. A previously unknown Islamist group claimed responsibility.
