Three rockets fired in Peshawar
2007-10-29
Three rockets fired from an unknown location landed in the cantonment area here on Sunday, but no casualties were reported, police said. One of the three rockets, fired at around 4am, hit the upper storey of Awami National Party (ANP) leader Bashir Ahmed Bilour’s house on Tariq Road, and the other two landed in RA Bazaar and Defence Colony. Bilour’s house is across the road from the US Consulate. Peshawar police chief Abdul Majeed Marwat told Daily Times that the attack might have been aimed at the US Consulate. “We heard an explosion and went on the roof and saw the remains of the rocket. It caused some damage but everyone is safe,” AP quoted Bilour’s secretary Gul Muhammad Khan as saying. Police are investigating and explosive experts are examining the rockets.
