225kg WW11 bomb blown up in Puchong/Eight injured in Puchong bomb explosion

When Ian Tong was in Puchong, he and some of us who were at home, heard a very loud explosion.  The cause of the loud sound was actually a bomb being detonated!!!!

Pangsapuri Enggang and Taman Damai Utama is actually very near to where we we live.

BOMB BLAST IN MOVIDA, IOI BOULEVARD, PUCHONG, 

Police are investigating an explosion - believed to have been caused by a hand grenade - outside the Movida nightclub in Puchong Jaya, witnesses say. At least eight people have been injured .





The incident happened at around 3 a.m. local time on Tuesday when an explosion occurred outside the Movida nightclub, which is located on IOI Boulevard in Puchong Jaya. The town is southwest of the capital Kuala Lumpur.

The explosion occurred while people were gathered at the nightclub to watch the Euro 2016 match between England and Iceland. The surrounding area is also home to other entertainment venues as well as the RHB Bank.


Witnesses had said a bomb appeared to have exploded at the venue, and a police official later confirmed that Tuesday's blast had been caused by a hand grenade. Photos from the scene showed a number of injured people on a sidewalk and police said that 8 people had been injured.
Other details, including the conditions of those injured and who may have been responsible for the attack, were not immediately available. The street in front of the nightclub was cordoned off on early Tuesday morning as police carried out an investigation at the scene.
