Police sources said they expect to get vital clues from the CCTV camera that was installed at German Bakery at Koregaon Park.

Snehal Kharose, daughter of the proprietor of German Bakery, confirmed that the police had taken the CCTV camera placed above the cash counter of the eatery in their possession.

Police sources also confirmed that the CCTV footage provided some important leads in the case.

The camera installed above the billing counter captures images of every visitor who places an order, as it is also the self-service counter.

Pravin Panth, cashier at the bakery, said, "I have seen the footage, but I cannot reveal the inputs. I have been advised to refrain from revealing details to the media as this may harm investigations."

Paras Rimal (19), a German Bakery waiter who had stepped out to give water when the blast occurred, was also shown the footage, but was unavailable for comment.

The cops have reportedly made sketches of some suspects based on the inputs provided by the waiter
and cashier.
