A suspected Lashkar-e-Tayiba activist was held at the Indira Gandhi International airport in New Delhi, police sources said on Monday.

Mohammad Haroon Rashid alias Farooq -- who arrived from Singapore -- was arrested on Saturday night after the Delhi police received a tip-off, they added.

Rashid, who carried a passport issued in Patna, is charged with delivering funds to two LeT militants who were killed in an encounter in south Delhi recently, the sources said.

Rashid was formerly an engineer with the Hindustan Aeronautics Ltd.

Interrogations are on to ascertain details about the network of the outfit.
