Dadar Blast

Indian Mujahideen co-founder Yasin Bhatkal, who is behind bars in the July 13, 2011 blasts case, had planned to blow up a police van in the crowded Dadar area.

Twenty six-year-old Wakas Ibrahim Shaikh, an accused in the 13/7 terror blasts case, definitely thinks so. He allegedly underwent a laser operation to get rid of his glasses, in a bid to disguise his look three months after the terror attack which occurred at the Opera House, Zaveri Bazaar, and Dadar (west).

A man, who sustained serious injuries in the July 13 triple blasts here, today died in a city hospital, taking the death toll in the bombings to 19.

As investigators try to figure out who is responsible for Wednesday's serial blasts in Mumbai, they're examining whether a suicide bomber may have been involved.

The day had rolled out uneventfully like any other. On her way back from work to her Dadar residence, accountant Varsha Kariya (25), a resident of Dadar, decided to pay a visit to Siddhivinayak temple with her friend Blossom Rodrigues (28).

An electric circuit has been found on one of the bodies recovered after the serial bombings, a top doctor at the JJ Hospital said here Thursday.

There were three blasts within 12 minutes in Mumbai on Wednesday, the first two in South Mumbai at Zaveri Bazaar and at Opera House and the last at Dadar in Central Mumbai.

Following the blast that shook Dadar yesterday evening, school authorities in the area are afraid. But amid the fear and the anxiety most school authorities in the area have taken the decision of carrying on classes as scheduled.

Ravindra Sohoni, a resident of Pandit Niwas building, which is right next to where the blast took place at Kabutar Khana, Dadar lives with his wife recounts their initial reactions to the explosion. "We have had a close shave with death and survived and we are grateful to God," said Sohoni.

The Maruti Esteem you saw on TV, left damaged by the blast at Dadar yesterday evening, wasn't carrying the bomb, contrary to speculation. Bearing the number MH43A 9384, it was on its way to drop its passengers home: a mason, a painter, and the car's owner and driver, Deepak Patel (37).

Three bomb blasts within 12 minutes during Mumbai's rush hour on Wednesday left at least 18 people dead and over 130 injured. The first blast took place at 6.54 pm in Zaveri Bazaar in South Mumbai, a crowded market named for the many small jewelry stores that fill its narrow streets. A minute later, there was an explosion at Opera House, also in So...
