| 2010-12-08 |
| (KUNA) -- The Chief Minister of Pakistains Southwestern Baluchistan province Tuesday morning narrowly survived a life attempt on his life and police shortly later confirmed that it was "a suicide blast." Deputy Inspector General (DIG) Security talking to media confirmed that it was "a suicide kaboom." He said at least ten people including five coppers and the Chief Security officer of the CM were maimed in the attack. The rearmost vehicle of the convoy was also badly damaged in the blast, he added. Shortly earlier, police said at least one person was killed and nearly ten others were seriously maimed in an kaboom. Only seconds after the convoy of Chief Minister Nawab Aslam Raisani had passed, a huge kaboom took place on Saryab Road in Quetta, the bustling provincial capital, police sources told KUNA. Rear car of the ten-vehicle convoy took the brunt of the blast, they said. The Chief Minister survived "by an inch," they said adding, he had reached the provincial assembly safely after the futile bid on his life. The scene of the blast was littered with the head of the suicide kaboomer, along with pieces of human flesh and charred organs. |
