KUALA LUMPUR: An 11-year-old girl was injured when what is believed
to be a homemade bomb exploded at the concourse of Puduraya bus
terminal here.
Aqilah Nadiah Zamzar suffered burns on her face and several parts
of her body when the explosives, which was placed inside a snack
wrapper and left on a concrete bench at the entrance to platform
seven, went off at 9.10pm yesterday.
Scene of crime: Policemen cleaning the area where the homemade bomb
exploded at the Puduraya bus terminal in Kuala Lumpur last
night.
She was sitting on the bench while her aunt and a cousin were about
to sit down when the bomb exploded. The three were waiting to board
a bus to Kota Tinggi.
No one else was hurt in the incident.
Bus operations at the terminal were not disrupted although the
affected area was cordoned off.
Aqilah was rushed to the Kuala Lumpur Hospital and was admitted to
the paediatric ward.
Acting city police chief SAC (I) Zulhasnan Najib Baharuddin, who
confirmed that the explosion was caused by explosives placed inside
a food wrapper, said police were investigating the content of the
explosives.
We have collected evidence from the scene and hope it will help in
our investigations, he said when met at the scene.
It is learnt that batteries, a can, mineral water bottle and
gunpowder were found at the scene.
SAC Zulhasnan said police would also look at the CCTV footage at
the terminal.
Puduraya shopkeeper Abdul Razak Abdul Rahman, who was a few metres
away from the scene, said he heard a very loud explosion.
He said he immediately ran to the spot and found a little girl
crying with injuries on her face and body.
I carried her to the police beat base at the bus terminal before
the officers called an ambulance, he said.
Another shopkeeper Zainon Othman, 45, said she heard a loud sound
like a bus tyre bursting and then saw smoke right in front of her
shop.
I then saw a man carrying a little girl and running towards the
police beat base, she said.
