UP govt: train blast a terrorist attack
By: PTI
July 29, 2005



Lucknow: The blast in the Shramjeevi Express in Uttar Pradesh's Jaunpur district, which killed nine persons, appeared to be a terrorist attack with Uttar Pradesh and the Centre today pointing to the planting of an explosive device and a timer to set it off.

UP principal secretary (home) Alok Sinha, who visited the blast site yesterday, told reporters here that the explosives were kept in a briefcase planted in the packed general compartment of the Delhi-bound train.

He said a timer device could have been used to detonate the blast in the train and ruled out the explosion as an accident.

"Some wire and other materials seized from the blast site suggest that a timer device could have been used to trigger the blast yesterday evening," said Sinha, adding "it was neither an accidental blast nor a cylinder blast".

He said vital material has been seized from the site by forensic experts and all state agencies have been deployed to carry out investigations to arrive at a final conclusion.

The muslims attack India almost daily, I don't know why it is ignored by our press.
