At least 12 Indian officials including cops were killed, while 29 others injured after a massive blast tore through the Nowgam Police Station in Srinagar, Occupied Jammu and Kashmir, during the intervening night of Friday and Saturday, reported Indian media.

Multiple videos of the aftermath of the explosion have surfaced, while one of the videos, captured on a CCTV camera in the vicinity of a nearby house, has captured the exact moment the blast occurred, leaving the police station destroyed.

The footage shows a sudden, powerful flash as the explosion ripped through the police station premises, followed by flames shooting into the air, visually confirming the scale of the detonation that was heard several kilometres away.

The windows and doors of the house could be seen shattering, while locals said they felt like a massive earthquake as the explosion hit.

The explosion occurred while a team from the Forensic Science Laboratory (FSL), the Tehsildar, and police personnel were handling and checking explosive material kept inside the station.

This material had been recovered during the ongoing investigation into the ‘white-collar’ terror module case linked to the November 10 Delhi car blast.

News agency PTI quoted officials as saying that the material, part of the 360 kilograms of explosives, was recovered from the rented residence of arrested doctor Muzammil Ganaie.

The CCTV visuals emerged as officials confirmed that eight injured policemen were initially rushed for medical attention immediately after the blast, with two bodies, including that of an inspector-rank officer, later pulled out from the rubble.

The police station was completely destroyed in the explosion, with vehicles inside reduced to mangled remains and nearby houses suffering damage.

A team from the SIA and other officials were present at the site, working on seized explosive material, when the massive detonation occurred.

While some of the explosives recovered have been kept at the forensic lab of the police, the major part of the 360 kg of explosives was stored at the police station, where the primary case for the terror module was registered.
