The police said on Monday 123 crude bombs have been recovered from a house in Burdwan district of West Bengal and 13 persons detained for questioning.

The bombs were seized from the house of Shakeel Ahmad in Mangalkote area, Superintendent of Police (Burdwan) Kunal Aggarwal said.

Earlier in October 2014, an accidental blast at a house in Khagragarh in Burdwan district led to the National Investigation Agency (NIA) busting a terror module of Bangladeshi militant outfit Jamaat-ul-Mujahideen Bangladesh (JMB).
