MUMBAI, India (AFP) -- Police said Wednesday they had broken up an Islamic militant cell in western India after arresting four people and seizing CDs encouraging terrorist attacks.

The four men were allegedly part of a pan-Indian network of Lashkar-e-Taiba, a militant group fighting Indian rule in divided Kashmir.

The group is suspected of having a role in July's deadly Mumbai train bombings that killed nearly 190 people and other attacks including on India's parliament in 2001.

Police said the four arrested over two days this week in the western state of Gujarat included a Muslim cleric. Officers claimed that two of the men went to training camps in Kashmir, Bangladesh and Pakistan.

"A lot of jihadi (holy war) literature along with some CDs and cellular phones have been seized," said assistant commissioner of police G.L. Singhal. "Documents seized from the accused and their preliminary interrogation has helped us gather evidence on this L-e-T network."

Police said it was too early to say if the four were involved in more than recruitment or were planning terrorist strikes.

Gujarat has a long history of Hindu-Muslim clashes. More than 2,000 people, mainly Muslims, were killed in rioting in the state after 59 Hindus died in a train allegedly torched by Muslims in February 2002.

A disputed official inquiry report said the train fire was an accident.

Indian Kashmir is in the throes of a long-running separatist insurgency that has so far killed over 44,000 people according to official count.
