‘Defuse bomb-making websites’


PETALING JAYA: The use of home-made bombs to commit crime is on the rise, and Do-It-Yourself (DIY) websites plus the easy availability of explosive components have been blamed for the spike in such cases.

Though the most recent deadly explosion in Bukit Bintang involved grenades, 39 home-made bomb cases were reported over the last two years, according to police records (See graphics below).
