Delhi Police investigate possible Khalistani link in CRPF school blast, seek details from Telegram, suspect in CCTV footage.
Delhi Police probing a possible Khalistani link in the blast near a CRPF school here on Monday (October 21, 2024) wrote to messaging app Telegram to know the details of a group that claimed responsibility of the explosion, police sources said on Monday.
A strong blast ripped through a wall of the CRPF school in Rohini’s Prashant Vihar area on Sunday morning. No one was hurt in the blast but a signboard, hoardings of nearby shops and window panes of vehicles parked near the spot were damaged in the incident.
In its FIR filed on the incident, a copy of which has been accessed by PTI, police has mentioned a “white powder found scattered” at the site and said the explosion was caused by “unknown explosive substance”.
Meanwhile, police sources also said they have recovered CCTV footage of a suspect from the night before the incident.
A purported Telegram post circulated on social media, which claimed that the blast was carried out in retaliation to the “targeting” of pro-Khalistan separatists allegedly by Indian agents.
The post surfaced on social media late on Sunday evening pointing to the possible involvement of pro-Khalistani separatists behind the blast.
“The police has written to Telegram to the know details of the creator of the group - Justice League Indian - in which the CCTV of the blast was shared with a Khalistan Zindabad watermark on it,” a police source said.
