Three blasts rock Quetta, Kalat

By Our Staff Correspondent


QUETTA, Jan 3: Three bomb blasts rocked Quetta and Kalat townships on Monday night. However, police reported no loss of life or damage to property.

A bomb was planted near the boundary wall of the Balochistan Board of Intermediate and Secondary Education in Jinnah Town in Quetta.

It went off at around 10:15p.m smashing windowpanes of the board office and other nearby buildings while creating a one-and-a-half-foot deep crater. "It was a home-made bomb with a timer," a police officer said.

Two powerful explosions also occurred in Kalat separated by brief intervals breaking the windowpanes of the Mess of the Frontier Corps and many nearby houses.

The first explosion occurred near the FC Mess and residence of the Forest Officer, Kalat, at around 8:30p.m. and the second bomb exploded in an open space after 15 minutes.
