17 crude bombs found

AHMEDABAD: Seventeen low-intensity crude bombs were recovered from the Kot-ni-Rang area at Kalupur in the old city here on Monday.

A bomb squad defused them.

An official of the squad said the bombs with shrapnel and other discarded material were designed to create panic, not to cause grievous injuries.

The bombs were kept in small tins in a bucket, which was left in a dustbin.
