Five killed in Pakistan bomb blast

Police said the blast took place at the Kuchlak Bazaar in Quetta, the capital of Baluchistan province, on Friday.

The rally had been organized by the Awami National Party.

Security forces cordoned off the area and the injured were taken to Quetta’s Civil Hospital.

This comes as Pakistan’s Prime Minister Raja Pervaiz Ashraf is expected to visit Quetta later on Friday.

The bomb attack came one day after gunmen shot dead nine Pakistani police and prison staff in Lahore, the capital of the Pakistani province of Punjab.

It was the second attack in three days on security personnel in the province of Punjab.
