Pak Punjab Law Minister blames RAW for twin bomb blasts in Lahore | Pakistan Punjab Law Minister Rana Sanaullah has blamed India for Monday’s twin bomb blasts in Lahore in which
over 38 persons were killed. Interacting with media persons here, Sanaullah said
Indian intelligence agency, Research and Analysis Wing (RAW) and Israel ’s Mossad
were responsible for the current wave of terror in the country. Sanaullah said
Lahore blasts were not suicide attacks, but were triggered off by bombs planted
in some vehicle. Lahore was rocked by two powerful bomb blasts on Monday, which
killed 38 people and injured over 100. The blasts occurred in the crowded Moon
Market situated in the Allama Iqbal Town . Soon after the blasts, which occurred
30 seconds apart from each other at 8.45 in the evening, a severe fire engulfed
the market place, which made relief and rescue operations more difficult. Earlier
in the day, in Peshawar , a suicide bomber blew himself up at the Session Court
complex entrance killing nine people and injuring over 45. This was the second
attack in less than a month, which targeted the court premises in Peshawar . Earlier
on November 19, a suicide bomber had killed 19 people outside the Peshawar Judicial
Complex. Meanwhile, the US embassy has denounced the series of attacks terming
them as an attack on Pakistan ’s ‘democratic institution’. “This vicious attack
is yet another attack on the democratic institutions of Pakistan and the rule
of law. We express our deep condolences to the victims’ families and pray for
a speedy recovery for all those injured,” a press release issued by the embassy
stated. |
