Nineteen seriously injured in Peshawar blast
2011-03-26
[Dawn] A blast in Hashtnagr area of Beautiful Downtown Peshawar left 19 people critically injured and destroyed a vehicle as well as a rickshaw, DawnNews reported.

DSP Faqir Abad, Saleem Daad told the media that it was a minor blast but as the region was densely populated, a large number of people were affected.

He said that 50 to 60 grams of kaboom was used in the bomb which an unknown assailant threw near a vehicle at Hashtnagr chowk. Not only did the people inside the vehicle and a rickshaw get injured but also affected were passerbys.

The bomb disposal squad immediately reached on site and gathered evidence. The squad said that the kaboom used was of less intensity.
