The police have launched a massive hunt for a woman who allegedly promised Rs 1,00,000 to a rickshaw puller to carry out the terror attacks that killed over 60 people.
"We are looking for a woman, identified as Meena, who tried to lure a rickshaw puller, Vijay, to carry out the attacks," a police officer told IANS on the condition of anonymity.
Vijay, a resident of Mumbai who suffered minor shrapnel injures, told the police that Meena lives near one of the blast sites. No further details of the woman's role in the bombings were available.
According to the police, the first blast took place around 7.15 pm in the crowded Johari Bazaar. Within 15 minutes, seven more blasts occurred in adjoining areas of the Walled City.
