4/17/10 - Twin Bombing Chinnaswamy Stadium- Bangalore, India

Date: April 17th, 2010
Method: Twin Bombing
Location: Chinnaswamy Stadium - Bangalore, India
Death Toll: 0
Injury Toll: 8
Perpetrators: Unconfirmed

The Telegraph
reports:

The bomb was planted in a wall beside one of the entrances to the Chinnaswamy stadium, which is particularly vulnerable because it has a road running around its perimeter.
The bomb, along with another which exploded several hundred yards from the stadium, was described as "low-intensity" by the police. But it heightened the fears of the International Cricket Council about the next World Cup, which is due to be staged in India, Bangladesh and Sri Lanka starting in February 2011, Pakistan having already been ruled out on security grounds.
The Times of India reports that a third bomb was found 3 hours after the first two exploded and it was safely defused.
