Bomb-like object found in pvt hospital

Kolhapur

: Few suspicious objects were found on the premises of a private hospital in Jaysingpur, located along the Kolhapur-Sangli road, on Sunday.

One of the objects looked like timer-attached pipe bomb tied by red wire. The police claimed that no explosives were found.

Ajit Patil, the sub-inspector of the Jaysingpur police station, said, “After the hospital staff spotted the suspicious objects, we, along with the bomb detection squad, went to the hospital. The squad dismantled the bomb-like circuit. There were no explosives found. We have recovered the footage from the CCTV cameras installed on the premises. We believe this was an attempt by some mischievous persons to scare the hospital staff.”

Till Sunday evening, no arrests had been made. Patil claimed the CCTV footage was unclear and needed fine tuning to get a clear image of the individuals involved.
