QUETTA, April 14: Saboterus on Friday blew up a railway bridge and track on the Sibi-Harnai section near the Tandori area. Officials said that explosives were planted under the 150-foot bridge, which was blown up for the second time in the past one and a half months.

The train service on the Sibi-Harnai section had been suspended since the bridge was destroyed last month. “It was blown up just a day after completion of repair work,” officials said.

An 8-foot-long rail track on the same section was also blown up. The railway was planning to resume train service within a couple of days.

Meanwhile, armed tribesmen fired at least 20 rockets on various Frontier Corps check-posts on Friday.

Sources said that 15 rockets landed near FC check-posts in Pir Koh, Chashma, Sangsilla areas in the Dera Bugti district.

Other reports said that armed tribesmen fired five rockets on a check-post in the Mand area near the Iranian border. “Rockets exploded 200 metres away from the check-post,” officials said, adding that the attacks did not cause any casualty or damage.
