KOLKATA: A pregnant woman was injured at her south Kolkata residence on Wednesday when her Nokia handset battery exploded 10 minutes after she had put it on charge. The battery was a BL-D3, not part of the BL-5C series that Nokia recalled earlier this month.

However, both series were manufactured by Matsushita Battery Industrial Co, Japan. The handset that blew up was purchased in 2004.
