CHANDIGARH: A low-intensity explosion took place outside De'Orra, which is near Sevillee, a bar and lounge in Sector 26, owned by renowned rapper Badshah.
Sources said that the incident occurred around 3 am when two suspects on a motorcycle hurled low-intensity explosives near a private club De'Orra in Sector 26 of the city, triggering a loud explosion. Due to the blast, several window panes of the bar were shattered. Minor damages were also reported from a nearby club.
Interestingly the club was opposite the Sector 26 police station. No causality was reported after the incident.
Sources said that the explosive seems to be a crude homemade bomb and there is a possibility that it was hurdled at the private club with the intention of extortion. But the police have not called it a crude bomb attack.
