New Delhi : Even as the Union Home Ministry has given its nod for transferring the May 25 low-intensity bomb blast outside the Delhi High Court to the National Investigation Agency (NIA), the investigators have found that non-electrical detonators were used to trigger the blast. It is now suspected that a similar mechanism may have been used in Wednesday’s blast.

Over three months after the May incident, which investigators say was the first time non-electrical detonators were used, the mechanism that was used to trigger the blast has not been established. Eleven detonators were recovered from the site. The probe into the case was handled by a special cell of the Delhi Police.

A day after the blast outside the Delhi High Court, the NIA team combing the area sought the help of the Delhi Fire Services to search for similar non-electrical detonators. But nothing has been found so far.
