| 2008-06-10 |
| Four children died on Sunday in Garam Chashma, Chitral, when an old ammunition shell they picked up exploded, police sources said. Police officer Qazi Ataur Rehman said the boys, aged 10 to 13, found the shell at the site of a former Afghan refugee camp in Parabeq village, 50 kilometres from Chitral district, and might have wanted to sell it to a scrap metal dealer. Rehman says old ordnance has been found at the site before. The bodies were moved to a local hospital for post-mortem. |
