A authorities official Friday mentioned a bomb struck a automobile carrying the native chief of a political celebration in Balochistan, killing him and his brother.
Abdul Salam Achakzai, a deputy commissioner, mentioned the assault happened within the city of Harnai, about 200 kilometers (120 miles) north of Quetta.
He recognized the slain chief of the Awami National Party (ANP) as Abdur Razzaq. “The victims have been brothers and belonged to the Awami National Party,” he added.
Nobody instantly claimed duty for the assault and it wasn’t clear whether or not the bomb had been planted inside Razzaq’s automobile.
Awami National Party is understood for opposing Islamic militants who wish to overthrow the federal government to implement harsher Islamic legal guidelines within the nation.
