India: Shopping area rocked by rickshaw bomb
Suspected rebels triggered a bomb today in a shopping area in India’s insurgency-hit Assam state, killing one person and wounding 12 others, police said.
No one immediately claimed responsibility, but police suspect the United Liberation Front of Asom, or ULFA, a group that has been fighting since 1979 for an independent homeland in Assam, in India’s north-east.
