With a brick, constable defuses bomb
Ashok Kumar
NEW DELHI: A major tragedy was averted when constable Suresh Kumar defused a bomb planted in a dustbin outside Regal cinema in Connaught Place on Saturday.
Dinesh Bhatnagar, a gatekeeper at Regal cinema, said: “The evening show had just begun when we got news of the serial blasts and the theatre was evacuated. I too came out and stood on the road near the main gate. Soon I saw two rag-pickers searching the waste in a dustbin. One of them took out a black polythene bag from the dustbin and told his friend that there was a clock inside it. Beat constable Suresh Kumar who happened to be standing close-by overheard the conversation. He immediately snatched the polythene bag and pulled the rag-picker back.”
Mr. Kumar immediately took out the bomb from the polythene bag, broke the clock with a brick lying nearby and dismantled it. Bomb disposal squads also reached the spot a little later.
