Mumbai terror attack: Cops reject suicide bomber theory

MUMBAI: The police on Friday identified the one remaining body recovered from Zaveri Bazar after Wednesday’s triple blast, virtually ruling out the suicide bomber theory.

Investigators believe that the terrorists had planted a bomb inside the boot of the scooter found charred at the Zaveri Bazar blast site. The blast in the crowded locality killed 10 people and injured more than 74.The police traced the owner using the scooters’ chassis and engine numbers.

On Friday, investigators with Gujarat Police’s help traced the scooter’s owner. The owner is a jeweller who lives at Rangwala Building in Girgaum Chowpatty. The police suspect that this man might have been blown to pieces because he was probably very close to the parked scooter when the bomb went off.
