Asianet Newsable has accessed the letter, which claims to be from an unknown outfit named 'India Hizbollah'. The letter warned Israeli envoy Ron Malka that the IED blast on January 29 was simply a trailer and that a bigger attack would follow.

Asianet Newsable had reported on the recovery of the letter from the pavement next to the Israeli embassy hours after the blast on January 29 evening.

The letter claims that the attack was a revenge act for the assassination of Iranian Commander Qasem Soleimani, Iraqi's Hashd Shaabi forces Commander Abu Mahdi Al-Muhandis and Iranian nuclear scientist Dr Mohsen Fakhrizadeh. 

Suggesting that the Israeli embassy and its officials were under surveillance, the letter noted that the group could even "observe" the Israeli envoy "eating his pie".

In a related development, the National Investigation Agency took over the probe into the blast case.
