"Hyderabad’s famous Lumbini Park and Gokul Chaat shop areas also came under attack during this so-called ‘Hindutva Phase of terror.’ Two terror suspects Shahid and Bilal were arrested in connection with this act. The initial investigation suggested it was the handiwork of HuJI. The police and ATS probe established that the masterminds of this blast and that of Mecca Masjid bombing were the same. Such a clear connection between these two acts punches several holes in the theory that Hindu extremists had perpetrated the Mecca Masjid explosion."
