SUV found near Ambani house had low-grade explosives, not enough to cause big damage: FSL team

The Forensic Science Laboratory (FSL) at Mumbai's Kalina has found that the gelatin sticks recovered from the Scorpio parked near industrialist Mukesh Ambani's house were capable of triggering only a "low-intensity blast" and had little chance of causing significant damage.

The Forensic Science Laboratory (FSL) at Mumbai's Kalina has concluded in its preliminary analysis into the Ambani bomb scare case and found that the gelatin sticks recovered from the Scorpio parked near industrialist Mukesh Ambani's house were capable of triggering only a "low-intensity blast" and had little chance of causing significant damage. "The lab found ammonium nitrate inside the gelatin sticks. The preliminary analysis suggests that this explosive is capable of triggering a low-intensity blast and there is a little chance of any big damage due to it," an FSL official said. This type of explosive is commonly used in rural areas for digging wells, road construction, and other similar purposes, he explained, adding that the lab would submit its report to the National Investigation of Agency (NIA) in the next two days.
