The government today did not rule out the possibility of the involvement of a suicide bomber in the Mumbai blasts and said a few Indian Mujahideen militants arrested some time ago were being interrogated.
Government also said "as of now" it has no ground to link yesterday's terror with any elements across the border.
"The NSG DG has informed that a body with circuit has been found from one of the sites. The body was found near the explosion site. We are not ruling out anything," Union Home Secretary RK Singh told reporters here..
Singh was replying to a question about the possibility of the involvement of a suicide bomber in yesterday's blasts as the body was found with a circuit near one of the blast sites. "The investigation is still on," he said.
Hours later, Secretary (Internal Security) in the Home Ministry U K Bansal said there could be several reasons of finding circuit in the body of one of the victims.
"One of the possibilities is that the person concerned might have been standing near the bomb and as a result some parts of the bomb imbibed it (body). There is another possibility that it could be planted on his body. But as of now we are not in a position to tell anything," he said.
Asked whether the body has been identified, he said since some of the bodies were found beyond recognition, Mumbai police was trying to identify them.
On the possibility of cross border linkages with yesterday's blasts, Bansal said "As of now there is no ground to believe that there is any link of anyone from across the border".
