Chennai: Police should accept Coimbatore car cylinder blast as a ‘suicide attack’ and disclose the details about things seized from the deceased’s home, said Tamil Nadu BJP chief K Annamalai on Tuesday.

While addressing reporters on Tuesday, Tamil Nadu BJP chief K Annamalai said, “Police have recovered 50 kg of ammonium nitrate, potassium, sodium, fuse wire and 7-volt batteries from the residence of Jamesha Mubin (who died in the incident). Police have not disclosed this yet.” 

“On Oct 21, Jamesha Mubin posted a WhatsApp status similar to that of ISIS. Police haven't said why they have arrested five people,” he said.

K Annamalai said: “On behalf of TN BJP, we've written a letter to Union Home Minister regarding this blast. Police have to accept this as a 'suicide attack'.”

On Monday, Annamalai taking to social media said, “36 hours have passed since the bomb blast in Coimbatore. But till now why is @CMOTamilnadu reluctant to meet people and talk about this?”

“A 'suicide attack' that Tamil Nadu has never seen before has taken place in this incompetent DMK regime. Will you wait until casualties occur?” he said.
