150 detained after New Delhi bomb blasts
Investigators detained more than 150 people during raids on dozens of small hotels across the Indian capital today as they hunted for suspects in three terrorist bombings that killed at least 61 people in two crowded markets, according to reports.
Police declared a state of emergency and closed all city markets after yesterday's blasts. Prime Minister Manmohan Singh denounced the apparently co-ordinated bombings, describing them as “dastardly acts of terrorism”.
