Worshippers 'trapped' after Leicester temple blast
Worshippers are believed to be trapped after an explosion and fire at a Hare Krishna temple in Leicester.

A third of the terraced property on Thoresby Street has been destroyed and is too unstable for crews to enter.

Specialist rescue teams and equipment, including search dogs and thermal imaging cameras, are being used to establish if any casualties are inside.

A wide cordon is in place around the building, which is still on fire, according to eyewitnesses.

A spokeswoman for Leicestershire Fire Service confirmed they have had reports people were inside the temple at the time of the blast.

It wasn't a blast. It was an explosion caused by gas leakage. And nobody has been hurt as per the account of eye-witnesses.

This is a Hindu temple in the UK. What does it have to do with India or Pakistan? Unless you want us to start mixing religion and nationality as well?

In any case, it is not a blast, and no one is hurt. So no need to get any conspiracies going.
