India: 16 Killed in Hyderabad Bomb Blasts 
------------------------------------------


 
India has suffered its worst bombing in more than a year after a series
of blasts killed 16 people in the city of Hyderabad. The bombs were
detonated close together in a crowded shopping area. Dozens of people
were wounded. Officials there are reportedly probing whether a militant
group known as the Indian Mujahideen is behind the attack. The
government's recent execution of an Islamist militant is seen as a
possible motive.
