By Saleem Shahid


QUETTA, July 2: A paramilitary soldier was killed and another injured in attacks on checkposts and a police station on Wednesday.

Sources said that the soldier of the Frontier Corps was killed when some people attacked a checkpost in the Lehri area of Sibi with rockets and heavy weapons. Many rockets exploded near the checkpost.

According to other sources, a checkpost in Kohlu came under rocket attack.

The rockets, however, exploded in an open area.

Meanwhile, a man lobbed a hand-grenade on the City Police station in a busy shopping area of Quetta. The grenade exploded inside the police station, injuring a sub-inspector of the anti-terror force.
