Chaman – A bomb blast near a taxi stand close to the Pak-Afghan border in Chaman has left four people dead and three others wounded, officials confirmed. While the Police sources say that the blast seems to be a suicide blast. Furthermore, the powerful explosion occurred within the premises of a refugee camp and was heard across Chaman city and surrounding areas.
Soon after the incident, the Levies, Frontier Corps (FC), and other law enforcement agencies reached the scene and cordoned off the entire area. Ambulances from local hospitals shifted the dead and injured to medical facilities.
