A car bomb exploded on December 30 near a convoy of buses taking Shia pilgrims to Iran, killing 20 persons and injuring 25, on the RCD Highway in the Dringer area in Mastung District of Balochistan, reports Daily Times. Police said that the blast occurred as the three buses were overtaking a car, site of many sectarian attacks, near the Iranian border. Balochistan Home Secretary, Akbar Durrani said that remote-controlled explosive was used to target the buses. Talking to the media, he denied reports that a suicide bomber attacked the buses. Jaish-e-ul-Islam claimed the responsibility for the Mastung bombing. A Jaish-e-ul-Islam spokesperson, Ghazi Haq Nawaz, said that the attack on pilgrim buses by the “Mujahideen” was in response to an attack on Sunni clerics in Quetta and Karachi. Nawaz asked the Mastung Administration not to help Shias “otherwise it would be their next target”. He also warned CD shop owners in Quetta to destroy all those CDs which contain blasphemous material.
