Coordinated attack by terrorists: Chidambaram

New Delhi, Jul 13 (PTI) Western Indian city Mumbai
serial blasts were a "coordinated attack by terrorists",
Indian Home Minister P Chidamabarm said Wednesday.
The three blasts, which ripped through the bustling
Mumbai was timed with just few minutes apart with the first
taking off at 6:45 pm (IST).
"Therefore, we infer this was a coordinated attack by
terrorists," Chidamabarm told reporters here, adding that the
death toll could go up.
He said the National Security Guard (NSG) hub in
Mumbai has been put on standby and that the elite force's
'post-blast' team has also been sent to the financial capital
of the country.
The Central Forensic Science Laboratory (CFSL) team
from both here and Hyderabad has been sent to Mumbai, he said.
An National Investigation Agency (NIA) team led by an
IG rank officer will also leave for Mumbai, he said.
