On 14 April 2006, two explosions occurred in the courtyard of Jama Masjid, a 17th-century mosque in Old Delhi (India).
The first blast took place at 17:26 local time right in the middle of the courtyard next to Wazoo Khana which comprises a pond where worshipers wash their hands and feet before offering prayers, and the second a few meters away seven minutes later.
[1] Some sources claim that the mosque was almost empty with only 100–150 people in the premises when the blast took place.
[2] It is being speculated that these blasts might be linked with coincidental six grenade attacks in Srinagar, that took place the same day.
Another school of thought suggests that the explosions could be the handiwork of some office bearers of the mosque due to internal rivalry.
