Raipur:
Two days after Chhattisgarh Police seized bags filled with
ammonium nitrate and detonator sticks from an abandoned car in
Bilaspur district, the authorities have failed to make any arrests
though they have traced the car owner, officials said Saturday.
A police patrol team had seized the ammonium nitrate, used in
manufacturing explosives, and detonator sticks from a car
abandoned at Masturi area of Bilaspur district, some 150 km from
state capital Raipur.
"We have several leads now and also traced the car owner, but no
arrest has been made," an official at the police headquarters here
told IANS. He declined to be named.
He added: "It's completely unclear in investigation so far how the
explosive bundles were stuffed in the car and where it was
heading. Hope the case is cracked in three-four days."
The seizure of the explosive substances came two days after the
serial blasts in Mumbai that killed 19 people and left 129
injured.
