Jithin hurled high-intensity explosive at AKG Centre: prosecution

Jithin V. Kulathoor, the prime accused in the AKG Centre attack case, allegedly hurled a high-intensity explosive that contained a deadly mixture that included banned chemicals, the prosecution in the case has claimed.

The argument was made when Jithin’s bail plea was taken up for consideration at the Thiruvananthapuram Judicial First Class Magistrate Court III on Tuesday.

Citing the findings of forensic examinations, the prosecution said traces of potassium nitrate, potassium chlorate, sulphur and aluminium were found from the scene of the crime where the accused had hurled the explosive at the CPI (M) State headquarters.
