Pakistan bomb blast injures 11
2003-05-10
IRNA -- At least 11 passengers were injured when a bomb exploded in a passenger bus in the southern city of Hyderabad, in Sindh province, on Saturday. Police say five of the injured are in critical condition. The device was planted under a seat in the front portion of a bus which was moving toward Kandiaro district in Naushero Feroze. All the injured were rushed to hospital, where five of them were discharged after providing first aid. No one has claimed responsibility and the police has so far not arrested any suspect. A provincial minister and local officials rushed to the site of the blast and supervized the rescue operation. Talking to newsmen, Sindh Minister Dr. Irfan Gul Magsi and Regional Police Officer Ghulam Muhammed Malkani termed the incident an act of terrorism and vowed to book the culprits at the earliest.
"Hey, Mahmoud! Whattya wanna do tonight?"
"Maybe go to the movies?"
"I ain't got no money. You got any?"
"Nope."
"Let's bomb a bus."
"Hokay."

#2  I think they're referring to Hyderabad in Pakistan, where Omar Saeed Sheikh's trial took place.

#1  Hyderabad, in Sindh province of India, is a long way from Pakistan. There's nothing in the report to suggest it meant any other "Hyderabad". For Pakistan to have that kind of reach into India is disturbing.
