Chandigarh:An explosion occurred outside a night club owned by rapper Badshah in Sector 26 in Chandigarh late last night. There were some minor damages but no casualties were reported, police said.

One of the clubs is owned by Badshah. The suspects fled after the incident. Police said the blast shattered several window panes of the two clubs and a restaurant but fortunately nobody suffered any injury.

Gangsters Take Responsibility

Meanwhile, Gangsters Goldie Brar and Rohit Godara of Lawrence Bishnoi gang have taken responsibility for the blast that took place outside Seville Bar and Lounge and Di'Ora Club in Sector 26. In a Facebook post, gangster Goldie Brar tagged himself and Lawrence gang and wrote that the club owners did not give protection money due to which they carried out the blast.

In the Facebook post, gangster Goldy Brar clearly wrote, "We had called the owners of these clubs for protection money, but they were ignoring our calls for some time. Blasts have been done to make them understand so that this voice can reach their ears. Now those who ignore our calls should understand that our next step can be something big."

Police probe

On information, a team from Chandigarh Police reached the spot and an investigation was launched. Also, a forensic team reached the site to collect samples. Presently, police are examining the CCTV footage of the nearby areas to get information about the suspects. This apart, police personnel are speaking to people who were present at the spot.

A senior official of Chandigarh Police said that initial investigations suggest that the incident seems to be a fallout of some mutual rivalry and all efforts are on to nab the accused.

Pooran, an employee of De'orra Alehouse and Kitchen restaurant, said, "The incident took place late at night and the restaurant was already closed. We rushed outside after hearing a loud blast and saw glasses of the door shattered on the road. After which, we complained to the police. There were around seven to eight employees inside the restaurant at the time of the blast. No one was injured. The CCTV at our premises is not working."
