HC blast not aimed at causing fatality: Police chief

New Delhi: The Delhi Police today said the explosion outside the Delhi High Court was not aimed at creating any major damage and the motive behind the incident was being probed.
Delhi Police Commissioner B K Gupta, who handed over a report of preliminary investigation to Union Home Minister P Chidambaram on yesterday’s explosion, said as per the initial reports, the bomb was not aimed at causing major damage.
While waiting for the CFSL report, the police chief said that “it was a low intensity and mild blast” and “that’s why even the car under which it was placed, was not damaged much”.
“Our best investigators — our special branch and crime branch — are conducting the inquiry,” he said.
