[DAWN] At least 13 people ─ including seven policeman ─ bit the dust, while 19 others were maimed in a suicide kaboom that shook Shuhada Chowk in Quetta's Gulistan Road area on Friday morning, police said.
The injured were moved to Quetta's Civil Hospital, where an emergency was declared. Security was tightened across the city following the attack.
