Karnataka top cop Praveen Sood added that the police is probing the incident along with central agencies. As per information, CCTV footage - that captured the explosion - showed plumes of smoke coming out of the autorickshaw. “Around 5.15 pm, fire was spotted in an autorickshaw. The driver has said that fire was spotted inside a bag carried by the passenger. The driver and the passenger suffered burn injuries. We have shifted them to a hospital,” Police commissioner N Shashi Kuma said.

The driver and passenger are undergoing treatment and are unable to speak now. Home Minister Araga Jnanendra Sunday told the media that to probe the possible terror links, central agencies had reached Mangaluru. “This is not an isolated incident but we suspect some people linked to terror outfits are behind the act.
