CD shops blown up in Swabi

SWABI, July 23: Unidentified militants blew up two CD shops before Sehri here on Monday, said police.

They said that militants had planted explosive devices outside two CD shops located in Baja village. The explosives went off with a big bang at night, awakening people for Sehri.

The residents of the area said that they heard two explosions, one after other. “There was a short interval between the first and second explosion,” said Arshad Khan, a resident of the area.

Both shops were destroyed completely while the walls of the surrounding houses were partially damaged in the blasts.

However, no causality was reported because no one was present in the shops at night.
