QUETTA: A bomb exploded outside a church in Kohlu (Balochistan) on Saturday, shattering windows and damaging a wall but causing no injuries, police said. “It was a homemade bomb that had been planted by unidentified terrorists near the church in Kolhu,” a town about 350 kilometres east of Quetta, said area police official Mohammad Khan.
He said two more small bombs exploded in the same town, causing no casualties.
No one immediately claimed responsibility for the blasts, and police were still investigating, Khan said. Bomb disposal squad personnel said the bombs were Russian. Separately, Quetta Police on Saturday found and defused a 10-kg bomb at Aalmo Chowk (roundabout) on Airport Road.
The bomb, rigged to a bicycle, was meant to target a security agency convoy, which passed the site within minutes of the bomb being defused. agencies
