Militant group claims responsibility for Jaipur attack
A previously unknown Islamic militant group claimed today to have carried out deadly bombings in the historic Indian city of Jaipur by planting bicycles packed with explosives on the city’s crowded streets, police said.
The claim of responsibility for Tuesday’s attacks, which killed 61 people, was reportedly made in videos and an email sent to Indian television stations and a Hindu nationalist political party, said Pankaj Singh, the city’s inspector-general of police.
