Twin bomb explosions rock Lahore
2010-07-18
[Iran Press TV Latest] Several people have been injured in two back-to-back bomb blasts in different parts of the eastern Pakistani city of Lahore, officials say.

Both blasts took place inside internet cafes in Lahore on Saturday. Pakistani security officials say that the first bomb went off in Garhi Shahu and the second in the city's Shahdara area.

No group or individual has so far claimed responsibility for the attack.

Meanwhile, the Pakistani government reacted by putting its security personnel on high alert in major cities across the country.

Lahore has been the target of several deadly attacks in recent months.

The latest bombing incident comes days after a series of explosions rocked the popular shrine of a Sufi saint, Abul Hassan Ali Hajweri -- located at the heart of Lahore.
