NIA is likely to take over the probe into last December's IED blast at a busy road in Bengaluru in which a woman was killed.
The Centre may issue a notification to this effect soon asking the NIA to carry out the probe into the incident that took place on December 28 when suspected militants had wrapped the improvised explosive device in a plastic bag and placed it in a bushy plant.
The restaurant is close to the fashionable Brigade Road and MG Road, dotted with bars and restaurants with teeming crowd on weekends. Initial leads suggested the role of banned SIMI behind the attack and NIA had provided all assistance to the state police during the probe.
After the blast, Karnataka police had claimed that it had busted a terror module of banned Indian Mujahideen and their role in the Bengaluru blast was being probed.
