BATHINDA, Sept. 20 -- A team of ballistic and forensic experts from the Indian Army, on Friday, started the operation to sanitise the blast site, a house, in Jeeda village near Bathinda, where a radicalised college student was allegedly preparing a bomb. Official sources said the army officials from New Delhi reached Bathinda on Thursday and inspected the house last evening, where the accused, Gurpreet Singh, was assembling a bomb using several chemicals. Two high-intensity explosions took place inside the house on September 10, leaving accused Gurpreet Singh (19) and his father Jagtar Singh injured. The police learnt about it a day after a private hospital alerted the police about the nature of the injuries. While Gurpreet's right hand had to be amputated due to the explosion, his father, a farmer, suffered severe injuries in the second blast. SSP Amneet Kondal said that military experts were called in to clear the residue and provide a second opinion. "We will lift the cordon around the house only after the army experts confirm that the entire explosive residue has been cleared. Bomb disposal teams of the Punjab Police played a crucial role in clearing the site of the explosive materials," she added. Influenced by Islamic radicalism, Gurpreet was inclined toward a fidayeen attack on an unspecified target, but his attempt to assemble a bomb by watching online videos was foiled last week, said the district police officials. Gurpreet is in the police custody till September 25 and a case was registered under various sections of the Explosives Act and BNS. SSP said a detailed report from the Forensic Science Laboratory (FSL) about the chemicals and accused mobile phones is still awaited....
