One infant dead and forty injured (which strangley the article didn’t mention)…
Many member of the Indian Mujahideen (IM) come from the group Student Islamic Movement of India (SIMI), which itself is an offshoot of Jamaat-e-Islami (Jamaat-e-Islami having seperate groups in India, Pakistan and Bangladesh, formed in Pakistan):
