Mangaluru: Congress MLA UT Khader on Wednesday said that what was claimed to be a bomb initially turned out to be explosives used in firecrackers.
His remarks came after Aditya Rao, the suspect in the case surrendered before Bengaluru police on Wednesday morning.
Addressing presspersons Khader hinted at someone else’s involvement in the incident and questioned how the suspect could plant a bomb so easily at the airport. How did he manage to hoodwink the police authorities and reach Bengaluru? he asked.
“The act was aimed at disturbing harmony. Others might be involved with him in this act. The state government must conduct a detailed investigation and disclose the truth,” said Khader.
Police suspected the bomb incident to be a terrorist act, but now that the suspect has been detained, the police have said that he is a mentally ill man.
“The accused was untraceable for two days. However, the suspect has surrendered on his own.
Reiterating his conspiracy claim Khader wondered if the ‘mentally ill’ suspect was mentally sound when he placed the bomb.
Khader urged for the creation of a new dog squad to avert such incidents.
