Kolkata/Burdwan, Feb 28 (IBNS): Acting on a tip off, police raided an isolated house at Haripur village under Katwa Police Station limits in West Bengal's Burdwan district on the wee hours of Tuesday and recovered at least 60 live bombs from the location, officials said.

"Today we seized as many as 60 crude bombs and raw materials used for making bombs from Katwa PS area," a senior official of Burdwan district police told IBNS.

Later those bombs were taken to an open ground and state Criminal Investigation Department (CID)'s bomb disposal unit defused those.

However, police have begun probe into the matter, while none has been arrested so far in connection with the case.
