New Delhi, Dec 29 (PTI) Days after a low-intensity blast occurred near the Israeli embassy in Delhi, the Ministry of External Affairs (MEA) Friday said relevant agencies were looking into it.

“The agencies concerned are looking into the matter…. Let them finish their investigations,” MEA spokesperson Arindam Bagchi said.

Asked about Israel suggesting a possibility of Iran’s involvement in the blast, he said: “I certainly am not aware of anything that you mentioned about blaming particular entities or countries.” “I am not going to comment on what other countries might be saying,” he said.

According to officials, the blast occurred near the Israeli embassy in the Chanakyapuri diplomatic enclave here on Tuesday evening. No one was injured in the incident and an “abusive” letter addressed to the Israeli ambassador was found near the site, they said.

Though a case is yet to be registered, officials of the Special Cell and the National Investigation Agency (NIA), besides that of the Delhi Police, were looking into the matter. PTI MPB NSD NSD
