Bomb kills one as Indian Muslims break Ramadan fast

By JERUSALEM POST STAFF
A small bomb exploded at a market packed with Muslims breaking their Ramadan fast in western India on Monday, killing one person and wounding 15, police said. Two of the wounded were in critical condition, a police officer said on condition of anonymity because he was not authorized to talk to reporters. No one immediately claimed responsibility for the attack in the town of Modasa in Gujarat state. In July, the Indian Mujahideen group claimed responsibility for a series of blasts that killed at least 45 people in Gujarat. Monday's attack came hours after police in Lucknow arrested an alleged member of the Indian Mujahideen in connection with some of the recent bombings, police spokesman Suren Shrivastava said.
