At 6:45 pm, the suspect is seen returning on foot, after parking his bicycle carryig the IED near the kerb.
There were two blasts on Thursday at 6.58 p.m. and 7.01 p.m. The bicycle had a bag hung to its carrier, which the police believe had an Improvised Explosive Device (IED).
The suspect is clad in a full-sleeved shirt and green trousers. The bicycle he rode appeared to be old, says The Hindu report.
“The bicycle was the one typically used by labourers. The bag could have contained the IED,” a police officer said. The face of the suspect was, however, not captured clearly.
