MUMBAI: Four persons were arrested by the Vanrai police in connection with the explosion of CNG cylinders, fitted in a water tanker, while refuelling at a gas station at Goregaon East on Friday. The mishap left a teenager dead and two others injured.

Those arrested are water tanker owner, Ramesh Dudhare, 60, gas station owner Ghulam Tahir Sarotia, 46, tanker driver Bhushan Jaiswal, 45, and a gas station employee, Ganesh More, 40. They have been booked on charges of 'culpable homicide not amounting to murder' under section 304 of the IPC. On Saturday, a metropolitan court remanded the foursome to police custody till November 19.

Around 6.45 am on Friday, while an attendant at the gas station was filling gas into one of the CNG cylinders fitted in the tanker, it suddenly propelled out and exploded. The three other cylinders in the kit followed suit, shooting out with immense force in different directions.

"We will interrogate the accused, particularly the tanker driver and owner, in connection with the explosion," a senior police official said. The tanker has been seized by the Vanrai police and the Regional Transport Office (RTO) has been informed. RTO officials will carry out a detailed inspection of the vehicle to ascertain whether the cylinders were faulty.

"Ideally, the vehicle should undergo a check every five years. The tanker last underwent a check in 2005. The next check was scheduled for 2008, but wasn't carried out," said a police official. Inspectors and engineers with Mahanagar Gas Ltd will also conduct an inspection. The report of the inspection will be sent to the collector's office and to the RTO. The inspections will establish the exact cause which led to the explosion.
