KARACHI, May 13 One person was killed and 12 injured in a bomb blast late Thursday in Karachi, police said, in the second attack by separatist militants to hit Pakistan’s most populous city in recent weeks. The explosion in the Saddar neighbourhood was claimed by the Sindhudesh Revolutionary.
Following the suicide bomb blast at Karachi university where three Chinese nationals were killed, China asked Pakistan on Tuesday to arrest the culprits responsible for the attack.
The Karachi suicide bombing is part of a Baloch pushback against the China-Pakistan corridor but also spotlights the larger struggle for Balochistan s freedom.
The Karachi suicide bomber, who carried out a blast, killing four persons, including three Chinese nationals, was a highly educated woman and the mother of two children. She had been associated with the militant organisation, Balochistan Liberation Army for two years.
