PESHAWAR:
At least 29 people were killed and over 70 injured in a car bomb blast here in
Pakistan’s restive northwest on Sunday, the third bombing since last week. The blast
occurred in Qissa Khawani bazaar near a police station here. Media
reports say the blast took place in a car, parked near the police station. They
said explosion was detonated with a remote device. Rescue
officials have reached the blast site and taken the injured to Lady Reading
Hospital where an emergency was declared.
Many of
the injured are in critical condition. A fire
erupted soon after the explosion and at least eight shops were also damaged. All that
was left was mangled remains of the bikes, cars and burnt shops. The
explosion occurred at a time when the shops were just opening. This is
the third blast since last Sunday when over 80 people were killed when twin
suicide bombers struck at a historic church here. On Friday,
19 people were killed when a bomb blast took place inside a bus carrying
government employees.
