Following a low-intensity IED blast at Rameshwaram cafe in Bengaluru’s Brookefield area on Friday, the Telangana police have announced heightened security measures across the State.
Senior officials from the Telangana state police said they have beefed up the security as part of the standard operating procedure (SOP). Authorities have intensified security measures in the Twin-Cities with focus on crowded areas, religious sites and other vital installations. “Security personnel have been instructed to maintain vigilance and report any suspicious activity or unattended objects,” said a top police official.
Karnataka Chief Minister Siddarmaiah told media persons that the man who placed the bag inside the cafe had taken a token from the cash counter and that the cashier was being questioned.
