ISLAMABAD 9 Okt. – Sebanyak 10 orang terbunuh dalam satu letupan bom tepi jalan di barat daya Pakistan hari ini, manakala tujuh orang cedera apabila seorang pengebom berani mati menyerang sebuah kompleks pejabat polis, di sini.

Letupan-letupan itu berlaku sewaktu ketua-ketua agensi perisikan mengadakan taklimat khas untuk ahli Parlimen di sini mengenai kempen memerangi gerila Al-Qaeda dan Taliban.

Di ibu negara, pengebom meletupkan bom di dalam kereta yang dipandunya di luar sebuah bangunan pejabat pasukan antikeganasan.

Letupan menyebabkan bahagian depan bangunan bata merah itu musnah.

“Sepasukan komando polis meninggalkan bangunan itu beberapa minit sebelum letupan dan kami mengesahkan tujuh cedera,” kata inspektor polis, Ehsan Khan.

Sejurus selepas letupan di Islamabad itu, sebutir bom tepi jalan diletupkan dengan alat kawalan jauh dan mengenai sebuah van penjara polis dan sebuah bas sekolah di kawasan Hulu Dir, barat daya negara ini.

Tiga kanak-kanak sekolah, empat anggota polis dan tiga tahanan maut dalam serangan itu, kata polis dan pegawai kerajaan.
