New Delhi: British Police on Sunday have nabbed a second man in connection with the London Tube bombing that injured nearly 30 passengers on Friday.

The explosion - Britain's fifth terror attack in six months - sparked a 'wall of fire' that left passengers with burns and caused a stampede of panicking people in which some were trampled.

Later on Friday, Islamic State (IS) claimed responsibility for the explosion on the packed London Underground train which was about to depart Parsons Green underground station at 8.20 am (0720 GMT).

On Saturday, Kent Police arrested another 18-year-old man in the port of Dover, suspecting his involvement in plotting the train attack.
