Although central investigating agencies are already looking into the explosion incident that took place at Shamim Kabadi's scrap warehouse, situated at Khajri Khiria bypass last Thursday, a Special Investigation Team (SIT) has now reportedly been formed to further probe the matter. Meanwhile, on Sunday, the district administration bulldozed the damaged permanent structures situated within the periphery of Raza Metal Industries where the explosion occurred. The workshop belongs to Shamim Kabadi. Various agencies right from the local level to the national level are making collective efforts to uncover the truth behind the incident and address the potential violations of laws. As well, the investigating agencies are carefully exploring all angles surrounding the explosion incident, including the source of explosive material and the nature of explosion itself. This comprehensive investigation aims to unravel the origins of the materials involved and shed light on the circumstances that led to the detonation. By examining these crucial aspects, the authorities seek to uncover any potential links to illicit activities and ensure a thorough understanding of the incident.

 

On Sunday, the district administration with due support of anti-encroachment squad of Jabalpur Municipal Corporation bulldozed the office and adjacent permanent structures. Meanwhile, the police are preparing to announce a reward for the absconding Shamim Kabadi and are also uncovering people who had secretive partnerships and involvement in his business. It may be noted that, a powerful explosion occurred at Shamim Kabadi’s scrap worshop, located near Khajri Kheria bypass, resulting in the loss of two lives. Shamim’s son, Faheem Kabadi and his partner Sultan Ali have been implicated in a case of premeditated murder. Both Faheem and Sultan have already been arrested and are currently in remand till May 1.

 

In the aftermath of the massive explosion, central intelligence agencies such as the NIA, ATS, Military Intelligence and NSG have become active and they will present their investigation reports to their respective senior officials. The police are conducting their own investigation into the matter and it is learnt that an SIT led by Additional SP has been formed, including a CSP and SHO. The Superintendent of Police will supervise the investigation conducted by the SIT. Meanwhile, on Sunday, the administration has demolished the office and nearby permanent structures situated in workshop. Prior to the action, the administration had a day before yesterday bulldozed illegal portion of Shamim Kabadi's residence and his brother Salim’s house.
