By mine I assume you mean a pressure triggered land mine. That's unlikely in most areas. Mining is usually done on the LoC/IB. Its more likely it was an Improved Explosive Device. And you're right the 'mysterious bomb blast' isn't a smart comment, and it can probably be attributed to some second rate journalist rather than the army.
