PESHAWAR, April 15: Terrors on Thursday, one of them hitting the offices of the Crimes Investigation Department and two others landing in the periphery. A policeman on duty received shrapnel injuries and was taken to the Combined Military Hospital in a serious condition.

A senior police official told Dawn that the Russian-made 107mm rockets had been fired from a vegetable pushcart parked barely 150 metres away from the former CID headquarters, now used as a CID post. The rocket that hit the CID post left a big hole in its wall, and caused injuries to Nek Muhammad, the policeman.

The two other rockets flew over the top and landed in Garhi Ata Muhammad on Kohat Road, without causing any damage. Officials said the recoil of the first rocket had caused the pushcart to break up that might have changed the trajectory of the other rockets.
