Preliminary investigations revealed that detonators kept inside the car bearing registration number KA 41 M 2603 caused blast resulting in minor damages to the vehicle.

The minor blast took place soon after Maxwell Monteiro and his wife alighted from the car after parking it on the road side.

The couple claimed that they heard a loud noise from the front seat when Monteiro pressed the central locking button on the car key.

On hearing the news, the police and bomb disposal squad rushed to the spot and reportedly found detonators inside the car.

It is not yet known whether the owners themselves had kept the detonators inside the car or someone else had kept it to cause harm to the couple.
