A cheque for Rs 75,000, given by the government to one of the victims of a suicide attack on the Rescue 15 building in Lahore, has bounced, with the bank citing shortage of money in the national exchequer, a private TV channel reported on Wednesday. Muhammad Azhar, who was injured in the attack, told the channel a representative of the Lahore district commissioner's officer visited the hospital and gave cheques to those injured in the attack. He said he was also given a cheque for Rs 75,000, but bounced. The bank claimed there was no money in the national exchequer. |
