Bengaluru Police has seized a cache of explosive materials, including gelatine sticks and detonators, discovered in land situated in front of Bellandur Prakriya School, reported Asianet News.
The alarming find has prompted an urgent investigation by the law enforcement authorities, who are trying to determine the source.
According to the report, police spotted an abandoned tractor on a nearby vacant lot, raising suspicions of potential involvement in transporting illegal materials. Police also received information regarding the blasting of rocks at a construction site, further heightening concerns.
A case has been filed at the Bellandur police station in connection with these incidents. Additionally, an investigation is underway regarding the unlawful collection of explosives.
The incident comes just three weeks after a man walked into Bengaluru’s Rameshwaram cafe and set down a bag carrying explosives nearby, which had a timer set for an hour. Ten people were injured in the blast at the popular eatery in the Brookfield area.
In December last year over 15 schools across Bengaluru received bomb threats through anonymous emails, causing panic among students, parents, and school authorities. The first wave of threats targeted seven schools, including Napel and Vidyashilpa in Basaveshwar Nagar. One of the threatened schools was situated opposite the residence of Karnataka’s Deputy Chief Minister, DK Shivakumar.
