The National Investigation Agency (NIA) has announced on Wednesday a cash reward of 10 lakh rupees for information on the suspected assailant involved in the Rameshwaram Cafe blast case in Bengaluru on March 1st. NIA posted a picture of the suspect wearing a cap, mask, and glasses as he entered the cafe on their official Twitter account. The agency also shared phone numbers and an email address where people can send information about the anonymous individual.
NIA has assured that the identity of information providers will be kept confidential. The investigation into the blast at Rameshwaram Cafe, located in the Brookfield area of Bengaluru, was handed over to NIA earlier this week. At least 10 people were injured in the blast, suspected to be caused by an improvised explosive device (IED). Shortly after the explosion, Karnataka Police registered the case under the Unlawful Activities (Prevention) Act (UAPA).

Intelligence agencies suspect the involvement of two terrorists, Junaid and Salman, both members of the Lashkar module, in the blast case. They are believed to be currently in Azerbaijan. The notorious terror network is spread across Karnataka, Kerala, and Maharashtra, with connections to the Lashkar-e-Taiba group. NIA teams recently carried out simultaneous raids on 17 locations across seven states in connection with this module.
