PESHAWAR, Nov 21: An aftershock from last month’s giant earthquake jolted northern Pakistan on Monday but there were no immediate reports of casualties or damage, officials said. The tremor measuring 5.5 on the Richter scale was the biggest to hit the country since a 6.0-magnitude shock on November 6. A total of 1,340 aftershocks have rattled the region since the October 8 disaster.
