ISLAMABAD, July 29: The Islamabad police have released an identikit of the man thought to have blown himself up at Aabpara Market on Friday evening.

The government announced on Sunday a sum of Rs1 million for anyone who would identify the suicide bomber.

The snaps of the suicide bomber have been sent to government organisations across the country for identification.

The photograph shows a clean-shaven man, with some hair on his chin and jet black hair on the head.

The picture shows the nose and the chin fastened together with a string as one portion of the face had been blown away and both eyes were open.

A plastic surgery of the face has been conducted to reconstruct the face as the left side and nose were badly damaged.
