The news of his death has left his family in mourning. When family members tried to contact him after seeing the news on TV, his phone was switched off. It was only when they spoke to Dinesh's brother, who lives in Delhi, that they found out about his death.
Investigators have traced the suspected vehicle's movements and are now examining possible communication links established before and after the explosion.
In a statement, the Canadian Embassy in India said, "Canada offers its condolences to the families of the people who were killed in yesterday's horrific explosion in New Delhi and wishes those injured a speedy recovery."
