NEW DELHI — A powerful bomb left in a briefcase rocked the city high court complex Wednesday morning killing nine people and injuring at least 47, police said. The blast occurred during the morning rush hour, shortly after 10 a.m, between Gates 4 and 5 of the Delhi High Court through which visitors, lawyers, litigants and journalists enter and get their security passes made.

The tin-roof of the entrance area was blown off by the blast. Read full article > >
