The Andhra Pradesh police has released sketches of a bicycle used in the twin bomb blasts in Dilsukhnagar here in February which killed 17 and had injured more than 100 people.
Cyberabad police commissioner Dwaraka Tirumala Rao released the sketches of a damaged bicycle here on Monday.
Since the rear portion of the bicycle is totally damaged and only its front portion is available, it can be concluded that the explosive charge had been fixed on the bicycle’s carriage, Mr Rao said. The bicycle’s damaged parts found in front of the Anand Tiffin Centre at Konark Theatre revealed that it was assembled with parts of bicycles manufactured by different companies, he said.
The bicycle’s main frame, handle bar, bumpers and fork belong to Atlas company, while the front rim was manufactured by Usha, he said. Giving further details of the bicycle, he said that the front tyre was manufactured by a company called Ganga in April 2012, while its front tube is Gamra (Ganga) which was manufactured in October last year. The bicycle’s chain was a heavy duty “KW”, made in England.
