Talking to reporters after reviewing the law and order situation with senior district and police officials, in the aftermath of the incident on October 23, the Minister clarified that there was no bomb inside the car and the explosion was due to a cylinder blast.
To prove his point, he said nails and marbles were strewn separately and cylinders were kept separately indicating that there was no bomb in the car.
The minister lauded the efforts of the police and district administration for arresting the culprits and solving the case within 12 hours and bringing the situation back to normal.
On October 23, 75 kg of explosives, including potassium nitrate were seized from the residence of 29-year-old Jamesha Mubeen who was killed after a gas cylinder exploded in the car in which he was travelling.
The decision by Chief Minister M K바카라 웹사이트Stalin바카라 웹사이트to transfer the case to the NIA was taken as the accused had connections beyond the district to other states,바카라 웹사이트Balaji바카라 웹사이트said.

Stalin had visited Coimbatore five times in the last one and half years and had interactions with industrialists to solve their problems, he said.
