Bomb hoax in Ganga-Damoder Express
Dhanbad: A Bomb hoax created panic among the railway employees and the people at Dhanbad railway station yard when an unclaimed sack found with explosive kept in the S-5 boggy of Ganga-Damoder Express on Thursday morning. The bomb hoax incident took place when the train moved to Dhanbad station from Patna; during this hubbub the train remained stranded for more than two hours at the station. Soon after getting the information RPF swung into action and took the train into their custody and sack was opened after investigation. We found 42 bombs which were later diffused in water, RPF sources said. “The bombs which were diffused were those generally used to kill pigs or other animals. Perhaps seeing the strict vigil at station someone escaped after living the sack”, said a railway official.
