A caller who identified himself as one Pamen Meitei, commander cum fund raiser of the proscribed KCP has claimed responsibility for the grenade attack.
The hand grenade was of Chinese made, added the source.
Hotel sources informed that the proscribed KCP demanded money without specifying the exact amount through telephone three days back.
Some months back, KCP made another monetary demand but the matter has been already settled.
