Another development in the Bengaluru blast case is the discovery of new CCTV footage purporting to show the bomber. The man was seen getting on a bus operated by Bangalore Metropolitan Transport Corporation (BMTC).
The suspect was observed with glasses, a face mask, and a cap on. He wore black pants, black shoes, and a button-up shirt that was sort of green and grey. He’s been characterized as a “slim build, tall man.” He can be seen getting on the bus and heading to a seat in the video, but he suddenly stops, turns around, and walks out of the CCTV camera’s observation area.
According to news agency PTI, “new CCTV footage has emerged showing the Bengaluru Cafe Blast suspect boarding a BMTC bus.” This is the video:
