Terror revisited the Indian capital Wednesday when a powerful explosion ripped through the workday bustle at the Delhi High Court, killing 11 people and injuring at least 76 in India’s third worst bombing since the November 2008 Mumbai attack.

The suitcase bomb went off around 10.30 a.m. just outside Gate No 5 of the complex near India Gate in central Delhi where passes are issued for the hundreds of litigants, media personnel and other visitors to the court.

According to Home Secretary R.K. Singh, the bomb was in a suitcase. “We have remains of the suitcase,” he told reporters.

Around 300 people were waiting outside various gates of the court when the blast took place.

The Pakistan-based Harkat-ul-Jehadi Islami (HuJI) in an email to various media houses claimed responsibility. The email sent from an unknown location threatened that the hanging of 2001 parliament attack convict Afzal Guru should be repealed immediately.
