According to police, the explosion occurred at the Rameshwaram Cafe, and among the five persons, three sustained serious injuries.

The sources said the police have recovered a bag with batteries from the spot, adding that the police have recovered the ID card of a woman bank officer who has also suffered injuries.

The explosion took place at around 1.15 p.m. when a large number of people had gathered at the hotel for lunch.
