House blast kills 2 in Murshidabad

House blast kills 2 in Murshidabad
Behrampore/Barasat: Two persons were killed and five injured when bombs stockpiled in a house went off in Murshidabad’s Suti on Friday. The flag of an hitherto unidentified outfit has been recovered from the rubble.
Preliminary investigation suggest the deceased and the injured were outsiders who possibly had been hired to make bombs in the house that belonged to one Tajuddin Sheikh.
Deceased Titu Shiekh (28) was a native of Samserganj and Maharul Sheikh (33) was from Farakka.
Villagers have told police that the incident has its roots in a local land dispute. They also claimed that two men who sustained splinter injuries escaped before police reached the spot. The area has been cordoned off for evidence collection. Jangipur additional SP Sandip Kara and SDPO Prasenjit Bandyopadhyay said police would quiz the injured now admitted to Murshidabad Medical College.
The Murshidabad bomb explosion comes close on the heels of a similar incident in Birbhum. Crude bombs stocked in an abandoned pump house at Ilambazar had gone off on Wednesday.
