Breaking: 70 Socket Bombs Seized in Murshidabad; Police Seal Area After Major Recovery

A major security scare unfolded in West Bengal’s Murshidabad district after police recovered 70 socket bombs from the Domkal area, triggering panic among local residents. The explosives were found stored inside three plastic containers in Kupila Biswas Para, a locality that has witnessed sporadic political tension in recent months.Exclusive visuals accessed from the spot show multiple crude bombs tightly packed and hidden in plastic boxes, indicating the possibility of organized illegal activity. Following the discovery, police immediately cordoned off the entire area and sealed the locality to prevent any movement around the site. A detailed forensic examination is now underway.According to officials, the recovery suggests a larger network behind the stocking of these explosives. Investigators are questioning locals and scanning CCTV footage to trace who brought the bombs to the area and for what purpose.The discovery has raised significant concerns ahead of the upcoming winter political activities in the state. Security has been intensified, and additional forces have been deployed to ensure no further explosives are hidden in nearby pockets.The police have confirmed that a high-level probe is underway, and more arrests or recoveries cannot be ruled out.
