"The explosives inside the briefcase blasted a minute after it was put down in between window number 2 and 3 outside gate number 5 by an unknown person. We are sure the accused is either dead or has received grievous injuries, as he did not have enough time to run away," said a top-brass official.

Eyewitnesses to the incident also confirmed the person who dropped the briefcase was not gone long before the explosion. "We are certain of a few things. The accused is injured or dead. He was either a suicide bomber or was injured due to timing failure of the bomb," said the official, on the condition of anonymity.
