At least seven persons received minor injuries when a low intensity bomb exploded in Bihar’s Lakhisarai district.
Sushil Kumar, SP of Lakhisarai, confirmed the incident. He said, “The bomb was kept in a plastic bag and was placed in the back yard of a house which belongs to a person named Lutan Rajak. After the plastic bag was discovered from the place, one of the minor boys opened it while six other persons of a family were standing nearby. The bomb exploded soon after the youth opened the bag.”
“The intensity of the bomb was low and 7 persons sustained minor external injuries. They were given first aid in a primary health centre in Piparia,” the SP said. Earlier on March 9, a bomb exploded during the making of crackers in Gopalganj which claimed the life of an elderly person.
