| It's been almost 48 hours since a high-intensity blast occurred outside the Delhi High Court killing 13 people but investigators are yet find a breakthrough in the case. (Read: Delhi High Court blast: Death toll rises to 13) | (Pics: The face of human tragedy)
The National Investigation Agency (NIA) along with the Delhi Police is looking at all possible leads including two e-mails sent to various media organisations claiming responsibility for the blast.
The latest e-mail that was sent yesterday claimed that the Indian Mujahideen (IM) was responsible for the attack. Sent from chotoominani5@gmail.com, the mail - the authenticity of which is yet to be verified - also warned of another attack on a shopping mall on Tuesday. Referring to the attack on the High Court, the mail said the IM planned the blast on a Wednesday because it was well-known that the courthouse drew huge crowds on that day every week on account of Public Interest Litigations or PILs.
Investigators are trying to ascertain the genuineness of the email from the IM - considered an offshoot of Pakistan-based terror group Lashkar-e-Taiba (LeT).
Experts point out that in the past, the IM sent emails minutes before or after an attack they masterminded; also, their emails have traditionally been written in English and Urdu, and carried signatures of the alleged IM founders, Riyaz and Iqbal Bhatkal.
Meanwhile, another email was received by different media organisations including NDTV soon after the terror attack on Wednesday, purportedly by the Harkat-ul-Jihad-al-Islami (HuJI) that took ownership of the blast. The HuJI is based in Pakistan and has a huge footprint in Banglaesh. The email, according to sources, was traced to a cybercafe in Kishtwar in Jammu and Kashmir.
That the email could be a prank hasn't been ruled out by investigators, sources added.
