The National Investigating Agency, which is now probing the Monday Delhi car blast, has been inspecting the blast site for clues. They are also taking a look at the vehicle that was damaged in the attack.
The NIA is also expected to examine the report of the forensics department and to take into account the sticky bomb that was used to cause the explosion. It is, however, clear that the blast was triggered with the help of a remote device, possibly a cell phone, and that a timer was not used.
A timer device is normally not used in a sticky bomb, as the purpose of preparing such a bomb is to create a small explosion and also ensure that the bomber is safe. Sources say that it would be fatal for the bomber if a timer was used. In this method, one person sticks the bomb while another person normally triggers it.
Meanwhile, the NIA team is also studying a list of suspects and also the possible modules that could be involved in the blast. Although Israel has been blaming Iran for the attack, Indian agencies will also probe the involvement of homegrown modules that are sympathetic towards the cause of Palestine.
There is also a thorough check on to see if there was any kind of infiltration in the past couple of days, as modules from Iran have not been found to be very active in India. It could well be a one-off operation aimed at conveying a message, a source in the Intelligence Bureau informed.
There is also a look out in the Valley to see if people who are Palestine sympathisers came into Delhi to carry out such the attack.
