A large cache of explosives was found at his damaged house after the blast. It is suspected that he was making bombs to carryout terror attacks in the region or to avenge killing of RSS leader.
Both the palms of the suspected terrorist Pavithran were nearly severed in the blast that occurred in the house at around 4 p.m., the police said. He has been rushed to a hospital in Kozhikode.
The explosion was suspected to have occurred when he was making country-made bombs at the veranda of the house.
The house where he was assembling bomb was also suffered damage in the blast. No one was in the house at the time of the explosion, the police added.
