Furious at being separated from the girl he loved, a 20-year-old decided to exact fatal revenge by planting an ingeniously created bomb in the car of her father. However, the plan backfired when the bomb exploded while it was being taken to be tested, injuring his friend.
The matter came to light when Sanjay Salvi (31), a Kurla resident, was severely injured in the blast, which occurred near the Air India colony on the Kalina-Kurla Road on Thursday evening. Salvi is wheelchair-bound due to polio and investigation at the scene of the blast indicated that the explosive had been placed on the footrest of his wheelchair.
