PESHAWAR: A tribal senator’s house was bombed in Peshawar on Monday but no loss of life was reported, police said.
Follow up:
Police and bomb disposal squad personnel said 500 grams of explosives were used in the blast which surprised Senator Nasir Khan. “I have not received any threat,” he told newsmen as the forensic team was gathering pieces of evidence to advance its investigation. “I don’t know what could be reasons behind the explosion.” The explosion took place late Sunday night causing damage to main gate and boundary-wall of the house, Nasir Khan said.
No group has claimed responsibility for the attack. However, suspicion grew against militants in neighbouring Khyber tribal region. Nasir Khan hails from Bara town of Khyber tribal region and his brother Momin Khan could not get his nomination papers cleared by the returning officer for NA-46 (Bara). However, the senator’s son, Adnan Khan, is contesting elections on NA-46 as independent candidate.
