One person was detained for probe in the incident.
Since Wednesday morning, the area saw heavy bombing and gunfire. The attack claimed the life of Ashok Sau, former TMC president of Ward 12 in the Bhatpara Municipality.
He was taken to Bhatpara hospital, but was later pronounced dead. Outraged TMC supporters gathered outside the Jagaddal police station, accusing the station officer of negligence.
According to local sources, a sudden series of bombings erupted in the Jagatdal PS area on Wednesday morning. Ashok was sitting in a nearby tea stall, chatting with others, when a few assailants reportedly entered the shop and began attacking before anyone could react. Bombs were thrown, both inside and outside the tea stall and Ashok was shot at. The assailants also vandalized the shop before fleeing.
