A low-intensity explosion went off outside De'Orra, located close to Sevillee, a bar and lounge in Sector 26, owned by renowned rapper Badshah.
According to sources, the incident took place at 3 am when two suspects riding a motorcycle threw low-intensity explosives near a private club De'Orra at Sector 26 of the city. The attack resulted in a heavy explosion. The sound was so loud that it broke several window panes of the bar. 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.
"A low-intensity explosion took place outside De'orra, which is near the Sevillee bar and lounge owned by rapper Badshah in Sector 26. Both the places are at the distance of 30 meters away from each other," a police officer speaking on the condition of anonymity said.
Soon after the incident, Chandigarh Police reached the spot and began its investigation to ascertain the identity of the alleged suspects. Teams from the bomb detection squad and Chandigarh Forensic Science Laboratory reached the spot to collect the samples.
