QUETTA, Pakistan (AP) -- Hundreds of rioters have rampaged through the streets in southwestern Pakistan to protest the death of a renegade tribal chief.
What happens if Kahn dies, will they launch a few "mourning nukes"?
Dozens of shops, banks and police vehicles were burned today,
What, more cartoons?
a day after Pakistan government forces killed the well-known fugitive Nawab Akbar Bugti during a raid on his mountain hideout. A city police chief said about 450 people were arrested, even as security forces in Quetta imposed a round-the-clock curfew. Authorities fear the violence may spread to other parts of the impoverished province. In fact, a bomb blast damaged a government building in another town, and arsonists set fire to a telephone exchange.
Sure sounds like cartoons, right down to the seething.
No casualties were reported. An alliance of four nationalist groups announced a 15-day mourning period over the tribal leader's death. They vowed to continue protests throughout the region. A strike of businesses and public transportation is set for tomorrow.
