| Suicide blast outside Imambargah in Muzaffarabad |
| 2009-12-28 |
| [Dawn] A suicide bomb attack outside a Imambargah in Pakistani-administered Kashmir killed at least five people as the faithful commemorated Ashura late Sunday, an official said. The attack in Muzaffarabad came after Pakistan put tens of thousands of security forces on alert, fearing sectarian clashes and militant attacks as millions of Shias marked the seventh-century killing of Imam Hussein. 'It was a suicide attack. Five people have died, two of them were civilians and three were policemen,' Chaudhry Imtiaz, deputy commissioner of Pakistani-administered Kashmir, told reporters at the bomb site. 'Eighty-one people were wounded, 10 of them seriously,' he added. |
