At least one person was killed and two others sustained injuries after a crude bomb exploded outside a local court in Sasaram area of Bihar's Rohtas district.
According to police officials, the bomb was planted inside a motorcycle parked within the court premises.
Guddu, the motorcycle owner, was admitted to a nearby district hospital, but he succumbed to his injuries later. The injured identified as Shivratan Bind and Paswan, are presently being treated.
The police personnel have cordoned off the area and launched an investigation into the matter.
This is the second such instance of bomb explosion within the court premises in past three months as a bomb exploded within Sasaram court premises earlier in March.
