BLAST-LD CHIDAMBARAM 2

Pillai said, "None of the bodies of the nine killed has
been identified yet as that of a foreigner. Out of the nine,
three bodies have been identified which are of Indians.
Identification process is still going on."
He said the injured include four Iranians, two Sudanese,
one Taiwanese, one German and two Nepalese.
Chidambaram, who arrived here early morning, told a press
conference, "It appears that a person pretending as a customer
came to the bakery and left a backpack under a table and
left."
The Home Minister, who was accompanied by Chief Minister
Ashok Chavan of India's southern state of Maharashtra, said
people who occupied the table died in the blast.
He said forensic experts drawn from Delhi, Pune and the
Army were working together to find out the kind of explosives
and trigger used in the bomb.
Asked whether any particular terrorist outfit like
Indian Mujahideen was involved, Chidambaram said, "We are not
ruling out anything and ruling in anything."
He said it would be premature to comment on the nature of
explosives used before investigations were complete.
Chidambaram will be holding a high-level security review
meeting after reaching Delhi, sources said. (More) PTI HBJ
