Hyderabad, Feb 22: A “highly-disturbed” crime scene has not helped police make much headway into the twin bomb blasts probe at Dilsukhnagar here even as special teams from NIA, NSG and the Central Forensic Science Laboratory collected samples and sent them for detailed analysis.
The Saroor Nagar police registered a case, based on a complaint by eye-witness Gadagolla Anand, under different sections of IPC and Sections 3 and 5 of the Explosive Substances Act as well as Sections 16, 17 and 18 of Unlawful Activities (Prevention) Act on the twin blasts in which 16 people were killed and 119 injured.
“The crime scene was largely disturbed as large number of people moved freely even before we could totally sanitize the two spots,” an Inspector General of Police, who was among the first to reach the spot last night, told PTI.
