Dismissing intelligence failure in the Pune blast, Union Home Minister P Chidambaram on Sunday said the terrorists have hit a soft target like the German Bakery which is frequented by foreigners and Indians alike.

He maintained that the hard targets like the Osho Ashram and the Jewish Chabad House located near the bakery had been surveyed by US Lashker-e-Taiba suspect David Headley during his visit to India and the area was in the radar of terrorists for some time.
