Third explosion this month

Guwahati: Two persons were killed and at least eight others injured in a powerful blast, suspected to have been triggered by the United Liberation Front of Asom (ULFA), at a busy market place of Athgaon locality here on Monday afternoon.

The blast, which occurred around 12: 15 p.m., was caused when an improvised explosive device (IED) concealed in a motorbike went off at the crowded Sati Joymoti Road.

Windowpanes of many apartments were smashed in the impact. The injured were initially rushed to a private hospital but shifted to the Guwahati Medical College and Hospital.

This was the third blast triggered by the militant outfit in the city this month.
