TIL Desk/National/New Delhi/ The explosive used in the IED, which was seized from the Ghazipur flower market here, is suspected to be part of consignments dropped in Punjab and Jammu Kashmir by drones from Pakistan, officials said on Monday.

On Monday, after the National Security Guard (NSG) informed the Delhi Police that the IED seized from the market had a timer device attached to it and had ammonium nitrate and RDX as its components, police officials probing the case said that RDX as a component was used in blasts in the national capital earlier.

Police officials said they suspect that the kind of explosive used in the IED seized from the market could have been part of consignments dropped in Jammu Kashmir and Punjab by droned from Pakistan.
