A CRPF jawan and a woman were injured in a grenade blast outside the residence of Manipur minister Yumnam Khemchand in Imphal on Saturday night. The attack occurred despite tightened security after recent protests against ministers. Police said the grenade was lobbed by unknown motorbike-borne assailants around 10pm. The injured CRPF guard sustained minor hand wounds. Chief Minister N Biren Singh rushed to the spot and said investigations are underway to nab the perpetrators. There have been several recent attacks on ministers' homes amid ethnic clashes in Manipur that have killed over 175 people.
