Terrorist attacks in Mumbai

At 21:15 on 28 July 2003 a bomb placed under a seat of a B.E.S.T. bus exploded on the busy Lal Bahadur Shastri Marg in Ghatkopar. The bomb was placed in the rear of the bus, killing four people and injuring 32. A man who was riding a motorcycle behind the bus and a woman who was in a rickshaw travelling near the bus were among those killed. An eyewitness said that the woman was thrown at least 10 feet away from the rickshaw and died on the spot. This was the fourth in a series of five bombings against the city within a period of eight months.
