A bra bomb is a bomb worn by women suicide bombers. Hiding the explosives in a bra instead of a vest allows for the women to show their midriffs when searched. In 2007 a Tamil Tiger suicide bomber had explosives hidden in her bra. She blew herself up outside the office of a Tamil minister. Most notable high profile attack would be the suicide attack by Thenmuli Rajaratnam wearing a belt with explosives or a bra bomb used in the assassination of Indian Prime Minister Rajiv Gandhi by Liberation Tigers of Tamil Eelam (LTTE).
