Damn! Left it in the editor while I had lunch, so B beat me to it. Consider this a followup...
A bomb exploded minutes after a motorcade carrying the Pakistani president passed a road near the capital on Sunday, but no one was hurt. The blast damaged a bridge in Rawalpindi, about 10 miles from the capital, Islamabad, but President Gen. Pervez Musharraf was not harmed, state television PTV reported. Information Minister Sheikh Rashid Ahmed told The Associated Press that the president was returning to his home at Army House in Rawalpindi from the city's airport after a visit to Karachi. Ahmed said it was a bomb explosion and an investigation was under way. Maj. Gen. Shaukat Sultan, a military spokesman, confirmed that the explosion happened soon after the president's vehicle passed. "His cavalcade had passed safely," he told AP. He declined to elaborate on who might have carried out such an attack on the president.
| Oh, who could it be? Who could it possibly be? |
GEO TV, a private network, reported the blast happened 10 minutes after Musharraf passed the spot in Rawalpindi.
"Mahmoud! Get rid of that cheap watch!"
"My imam gimme this watch, effendi!" |
