Curfew lifted in Indian city a day after after bombings kill 80

IHT - One of the seven bombs that blasted this historic city ripped apart Sumana Khan's life, killing her mother and two aunts and leaving the 4-year-old girl with a broken arm, a fractured leg and shrapnel in her back.
Most of the bombs were placed in bags left on bicycles that police have traced to two shops in Jaipur's old city, said city Inspector General of Police Pankaj Singh.
Nearly a dozen people have been questioned. No arrests have been made, but police released a sketch of a man in his early 20s, believed to have bought the bikes.
The bombers may have been aiming "to create communal tension," said Vasundhara Raje, chief minister of Rajasthan state.
