The Maharashtra police has informed the Centre that Thursday's Pune bomb blast was not meant to inflict serious casualties but was possibly an attempt by some terror outfit to mark its presence. The state police's acknowledgement that it was a terror attack comes a day after Union home secretary Anil Goswami wondered why a minor blast should, by default, be treated as an act of terror.
In its report on the Pune blast sent to the home ministry, the Maharashtra police said placement of the explosive on the motorcycle established that the bomber did not intend to inflict serious casualties. "It was possibly an attempt to register the presence of some terrorist organization," the report claimed without elaborating on the identity of the terror outfit.
Pune police has confirmed that a man was spotted walking towards a bike and planting what could be the crude bomb.
