Friday, December 7, 2007

Rae Bareli (UP), Dec 6 (ANI): Five live bombs were found in the premises of a court here today.

Two persons - Raja Ram and Barat Lal -- were found carrying the live bombs of "low intensity" in a plastic bag, police said, adding that they have been taken into custody and are being questioned.

The bombs were found during a security check at the court premises, as the day marked the 15th anniversary of the demolition of the disputed Babri Masjid in Ayodhya.

The security in the city has been beefed up and the police are investigating the matter.

The security across Uttar Pradesh has already been heightened in the wake of serial blasts in Lucknow, Varanasi and Faizabad on November 23. (ANI)
