HYDERABAD: At least 42 people, including five women and seven students, have been killed and 50 injured in two explosions at a crowded park and a popular eatery in Hyderabad on Saturday evening, three months after the Mecca Masjid blasts.

The week-end outing at the popular Gokul Chat shop at Kothi locality turned into a tragedy when a deafening explosion ripped through it killing 32 people and wounding 21, police said on Sunday.

Five minutes earlier, 10 people, most of them from outside the state, were killed and 29 injured in another blast in an open air auditorium in Lumbini Park near the state secretariat in the heart of the city when a laser show was underway, they said.

The blast at the auditorium, where 500 people were present, was so powerful that some bodies were flung in the air. Among the dead at the Lumbini Park were two students from Ahmedabad.

Four Railways employee are among those killed in the blasts.

The condition of some of the injured was stated to be serious, police said.

Hours after the twin blasts, the city police recovered a live bomb from Dilsukhnagar area and defused it in time, averting another tragedy.

The bomb was planted underneath a foot-over-bridge with a timer set for 9.30 pm, police sources said.

The near-simultaneous blasts at Lumbini Park and Gokul Chat Bhandar were triggered by cell-phone timers, city Police Commissioner Balwinder Singh said.

When will all this stop?

Religious Fanaticism
Spewing hate sold from
Radicalism shops !
Humanity victims
Killing fields
Everywhere
Dead more dying
As a mother a tear drops
Somewhere the Taliban 14 year old boy
Has stopped playing games
No more skip and hop
No more playing with tops
Learns how informers heads to chop
Peace empty words in a sharks belly
A life carrying on beyond the world
Of bleeding full stops
Yazidiyat jehadi terrorism
As politically pushed up props
