One of the deceased is a police official. It took place in Bhoosa Mandi. It is said to be a suicide bomber, who came on foot. He was said to be between 25 and 27 years old.

The target in Quetta was the SHO. The commissioner came back from the bomb site with horrific stories. It appears that the bomb-makers are now using something other than regular explosive materials.
