Terrorists strike Peshawar twice
Peshawar went through yet another day of bloodbath on Thursday when two strikes, within a space of 14 hours, left 22 people dead.
The first target was the city's judicial complex, where a suicide bomber blew himself up outside a court building early in the morning, and the other came late in the night when a roadside bomb destroyed a police van.
The first attack claimed the better part of the casualties–20 dead and 50 injured.
Three policemen were among the dead. The hit on the police van killed two security personnel. Blood, flesh and shattered window glass littered the ground outside the court building, whose main gate was uprooted by the force of the blast.
It was the sixth attack on the city in 11 days and came just three days after a suicide bomber blew up a car packed with explosives, killing four people in a suburb. The attack devastated a mosque, damaged a college and a police station.
