Imphal, May 15: Police bomb squads recovered two explosive devices from different places today with one safely exploded while the second could not be blasted as it was reportedly obsolete.

The first bomb was recovered from Hiyangthang Thong (bridge) at around 8 am and shortly after its retrieval bombs experts triggered blast at safe site.

In the second instance an unidentified youth reportedly left a bomb at the Palace Compound residence of AYUSH Programme officer Dr Aribam Guneshore Sharma.

The explosive device in antique state was wrapped in a newspaper and left at the shoe-rack of Guneshore's residence.

According to Guneshore's wife Dr Memma Devi, who saw the youth's arrival, the youth was asked what the package is to which he simply stated that it is an important thing for 'our sir'.

Recounting another incident, Guneshore informed that some 20 days back a live round was sent by unidentified person and desired to know which group, if any, is responsible for such acts.
