India’s technology hub of Hyderabad was on high alert last night as security forces hunted the Islamic militants whom they blame for a double bombing that killed 42 people in the city, reports Timesonline.

Police also disclosed that they had defused 19 more bombs hidden in plastic bags at bus stops, cinemas, road junctions and pedestrian bridges across the city.

The blasts on Saturday - one in a restaurant and another during a laser show at an outdoor auditorium - were the latest in a series of attacks on Indian cities since 2001.
