A Policeman and three civilians were killed and 49 persons, including a woman additional district and sessions judge, were injured in a suicide attack in a judicial complex in Peshawar, the provincial capital of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, on March 18, reports Dawn. “Two suicide bombers entered the complex and one of them blew himself up in the courtroom of Additional District and Sessions Judge Kalsoom Zaman while the second was gunned down by police,” Capital City Police Officer Imtiaz Altaf said. He said Police had challenged the bombers at the entrance of the complex, leading to an encounter. Three policemen, including an inspector, suffered injuries. “There were two attackers and both of them were killed,” he added. An official of the bomb disposal unit said that each of the suicide vests contained 8 to 10 kilogrammes of explosives and ball-bearings. The motive of the attack could not be ascertained, but Tehreek-e-Taliban Pakistan (TTP) ‘spokesman’ Ehsanullah Ehsan said it was in revenge “for the failure of the country’s judiciary to defend jailed Pakistani scientist Dr Aafia Siddiqui” in the US, reports Daily Times.
