“Homicide Bombs Kill 25 in Eastern Pakistan City, Wrecks a Police HQ”
Tuesday, March 11, 2008

ARTICLE SNIPPET: “LAHORE, Pakistan — Massive homcidebombs ripped through a seven-story police headquarters and a house in Lahore on Tuesday, killing at least 25 people and wounding more than 150, deepening Pakistan’s security crisis as a wave of Islamic militancy sweeps the country.

The two blasts happened about 15 minutes apart in different districts of this eastern city. The first tore the facade from the Federal Investigation Agency building as staff were beginning their working day. It also damaged scores of homes in the neighborhood.

City police chief Malik Mohammed Iqbal said an explosive-packed car was driven into a parking lot and detonated next to the building — which houses a department of the federal police’s anti-terrorism unit — knocking out the walls of several offices and part of a stairwell.

Pervez Malik, another city police official, said 17 people were killed and another 165 were wounded.

“It is the deadliest attack I ever saw,” Iqbal said.

The second explosion shattered the office of an advertising agency in a residential neighborhood, about 15 miles away. Mohammed Afzal, another city police official, said three people were killed there, including two children of a gardener.

Iqbal said both blasts were homicide attacks.”
