ISLAMABAD, Nov 11, (AP): Pakistan’s interior minister says a suicide bomber detonated his explosives near a police vehicle outside the gate of a district court in Islamabad on Tuesday, killing 12 people and wounding 27.
The attacker tried to "enter the court premises but, failing to do so, targeted a police vehicle,” Mohsin Naqvi, the interior minister, told reporters.
He did not blame any militant group but added that authorities are "looking into all aspects” of the attack. Naqvi said police investigators have confirmed the blast was caused by a suicide bomber.
