Explosion outside court in Nowshera kills two
[Dawn]  An kaboom outside the district court in northwest Pakistain on Tuesday killed a female police constable and at least one other person, an official said.The constable and a civilian were killed and several others were maimed in the morning blast, southeast of Beautiful Downtown Peshawar, said Liaqat Ali Khan, a regional police chief. Preliminary reports indicate that a homemade bomb was planted at a police checkpoint situated at an entrance to the court where women are scanned and searched. Khan said he suspected that Death Eaters targeted the court. "It's definitely a terrorist attack and they chose the court because many of their accomplices are brought here to be convicted," Khan said. Posted by: Fred 2011-05-11 |
