As the probe into the low-intensity IED blast near a court complex at the civil station here began, police on Wednesday said a pen drive seized from the site had information as well as photos of Prime Minister Narendra Modi, some Union ministers and BJP leaders.

It also revealed that the group had planned more of such attacks in the country, they added.

“Information stored in the pen drive has revealed that similar blasts were to be carried out at other places. There is nothing alarming but there are indications of some places (which could be targeted),” Thrissur Range IGP MR Ajit Kumar, one of the investigating officers, told reporters after visiting the site of the blast.

“Some pamphlets have been recovered. There was a map of India and they had written certain things in connection with the recent developments in the country,” he said.

Police sources said the pen drive also contained photos of the prime minister, some Union ministers and BJP leaders. DSP VT Balan, another investigating officer, said an NIA team had visited the blast site and had later held discussions with the police team.
