Imphal: A blast triggered by a grenade created panic at Wangkhei Khunou area of Imphal East district around 7.40 pm on Thursday. No one was injured in the explosion.
A two-wheeler of one Roshan parked at a residential complex was damaged by splinters, locals said. They suspect that those behind the explosion might have targeted Roshan’s neighbour, Haobijam Rajen, who is the owner of a prominent private hospital in the state.
Some unidentified men, who came in a two-wheeler, tossed the grenade at Rajen’s house, but the bomb deflected and exploded at Roshan’s residential complex, the sources said.
