Blasts rattle Karachi
2013-01-06
KARACHI - Three explosions within a space of few hours on Saturday rattled fear-stricken residents of Karachi besides injuring two policemen and damaging several shops. Police said the blasts took place in Orangi Town, Baldia Town and Site areas.

In the first incident, a two to three kilogramme bomb planted outside the office of a political leader in the Orangi Town area exploded. Fortunately no one was injured in the blast.

In the second incident, unknown motorbike riders hurled a hand-grenade at a police van in Mawaach Goth of Baldia Town, injuring two cops.

Police claimed it had arrested two people and also recovered two hand-grenades and two TT pistols from them.
