"At least seven people were killed and three others were maimed in the bus firing," senior police official Sanaullah Abbasi told AFP by telephone.

He said the bus was going from Bloody Karachi to Attock town in Punjab province.

Two men boarded the bus just before Qazi Ahmad and later asked the driver to stop. Two accomplices were waiting on cycle of violences. They opened fire, then fled.
