Jamali's family home boomed
A powerful bomb sent shockwaves through Rojhan Jamali when it exploded near Prime Minister Mir Zafarullah Khan Jamali's family house on Friday. The bomb went off at 2.00pm near a school's boundary wall, a few metres from the prime minister's house, about 300 kilometres south of Quetta. No casualties were reported as the school was closed for Friday prayers. District Police Officer (DPO) Shehryab described it as a "token blast" and said it was aimed at spreading fear among people. However, he ruled out the possibility of it being a terrorist act. A terrorist attack, he said, would have taken place when the school was full of people.
