KOLKATA:- After the mysterious fire that raged for four days, an equally mysterious blast in the central business district rocked the city on Wednesday.
The explosion on Shakespeare Sarani apparently wasn't triggered by electrical or chemical (http://www.addyoururl.org/index.php?search=chemical) devices but it was so powerful that it injured four pedestrians, wrenched a solid iron railing from its bars and hurled it several metres, split a tree trunk and twisted and mangled metal bars within a radius of 40 feet.
The blast has stumped police and explosive experts, much like the McDonald's explosion of August 12, 2007, that killed one person and injured three. Law enforcement agencies don't rule out the hand of a separatist organization in Wednesday's blast, particularly since it took place near Nagaland House.
