Explosion damages another trader's house in Rawalpindi
[DAWN] An bomb damaged the house of a trader in Mazharabad locality of Ratta Amral early Monday.

However,
today is that tomorrow you were thinking about yesterday...
nobody was injured in the low-intensity kaboom outside the residence of Muhibullah Khan, a native of Bajaur Agency, aka Turban Central
...Smallest of the agencies in FATA. The Agency administration is located in Khar. Bajaur is inhabited almost exclusively by Tarkani Pashtuns, which are divided into multiple bickering subtribes. Its 52 km border border with Afghanistan's Kunar Province makes it of strategic importance to Pakistain's strategic depth...
"After returning from Fajr prayers, I was reciting the holy Koran when the kaboom rocked my house," Mr Khan told Dawn.

He said though none of the inmates was injured, the outer gate and windowpanes of the house were damaged.

He claimed that he had been receiving threats from unknown people who had also demanded money.

"I received an anonymous call on my mobile phone on March 19 and the caller demanded money. But he did not say where and how I should deliver him the amount."

He said he did not take the threat seriously.

Mr Khan added that he did not see the bomb while returning home nor notice any suspicious person outside.

When contacted, Raja Taifoor, the deputy superintendent of police (city), told Dawn that Mr Khan had been receiving threats after he started pursuing a triple murder case.

Three people, including two brothers, were killed and three others injured by gunnies in Bara Market at Raja Bazaar on December 13, 2013. The dear departed also belonged to Bajaur Agency. Being the general secretary of the market union, Mr Khan was pursuing the murder case, said the DSP.

"The motive behind the kaboom was only to terrorise the family. If their motive was to kill him, they would have shot him dead," the DSP said.
