Deadly Explosion Rocks Christian Meeting in Kerala, India a Day After Hamas Leader Spoke Virtually in India — Killing 1, Injuring Over 30 in Suspected Terror Attack (VIDEO)
On Sunday morning (local time), one person was killed and thirty-six others were injured after an explosion rocked a Jehovah’s Witnesses convention in Kalamassery, Kerala, the Times of India reported.
According to local police, the blast was caused by an Improvised Explosive Device (IED) that may have been concealed in a tiffin box.
“The IED device might have been placed inside a tiffin box according to the preliminary investigation. More details will be received after further probe,” said the DGP.
Preliminary investigations suggest that there were three separate blasts within a few minutes of each other. The first blast occurred at approximately 9:40 a.m., just 30 minutes after the commencement of the prayer meeting.
