Peshawar: Attacks across Pak have created tension in the country, especially Peshawar. Another attack killed two policemen and left four others injured in an explosion in the north-western Pakistani city of Peshawar, police say.
It came hours after a bomb attack outside a court in the city killed 20 people and injured more than 40 others. “It was a remote-controlled bomb,” a police official said.
Last Friday, a suicide car bomb attack on the office of Pakistan’s main intelligence agency ISI on the same road as the court building killed at least 12 people and injured 40 others.
And on 28 October, at least 100 people were killed when a huge car bomb ripped through Peshawar’s busy Peepal Mandi market. The city’s Pearl Continental Hotel was also targeted by a truck bomb earlier this year.
Security has been stepped up across Pakistan, but correspondents say the government still appears to be unable to stop the attacks.
