Bangalore, April 20: Asserting that the perpetrators of the twin blasts outside Chinnaswamy stadium here on April 17 would be nabbed soon, Karnataka police today said it had received some clues from blast sites and were analysing them with the help of forensic experts.
Two low intensity blasts outside the stadium on April 17 prior to the start of an IPL match left 17 injured.
Karnataka DGP Ajit Kumar Singh told reporters here that the police did not carry out anti-sabotage checks outside the sites as it was impractical.
Anti-sabotage checks, Singh said, are carried out where there is controlled exit and entry. “To carry it out in a public place is impractical.”
However the police are investigating the case from all angles, he said.
He said the explosions might be the ‘handiwork of a local mafia or an attack by a terror outfit’.
