The owners of Rameshwaram Cafe said that the explosion took place in an area reserved to wash hands and the material that caused the explosion was kept inside a bag. "The explosion happened in the area where customers wash their hands. There was nothing in the kitchen that exploded. Something that was kept in a bag exploded," Rao told TV9 news channel.

Meanwhile, Bengaluru Police Commissioner B Dayananda on Saturday said that the investigation has been handed over to Central Crime Branch and that no arrest has been made in connection with the incident.
