Police defused a bomb on a passenger train in Peshawar on Wednesday, officials said, hours after a blast at a station in Lahore killed four people, including two minor children. A guard found the bomb in a briefcase in the early hours of the morning on the train from Karachi to Peshawar. “The bomb fitted with detonator and batteries was packed with old clothes in a briefcase lying unattended in one of the coaches of the Awam Express,” police officer Mazhar Abbas told AFP. The train guard found the briefcase after a wedding party got down from the train at Attock station, he said.
“The guard checked from the wedding party members and remaining passengers in the coach but nobody claimed its ownership.” A bomb disposal squad was then summoned who defused the device, he said. Mohammed Sajjad, a police investigation official, told AFP the bomb carried 13 kilograms of explosives as well as ball bearings and some nuts and bolts. “Luckily a major tragedy has been averted,” he added.

Because mankind has made up thousands of gods throught the years. What makes allah anymore real than the rest of them?
Timely intervention saved so many innocent lives, wonder what these terrorists get by trying such horrible acts.
Thnx to the passenger who raised alarm…we need to increase awareness among the public thru the media on contineuos basis…..this will be definetely beneficial in saving precious lives…..
Kash ye kam kal bhi ho gaya hota…..
At least give the poor guy proper bomb disposal gear. I mean he don't even have any gloves on and the body armor doesn't look like it can protect him from a bomb going off in his face while diffusing it. Sad indeed, as this man his put his life at risk without proper gear!
What someone trying to drive the final nail into the dead iron horse! or the railway management trying to scam the insurance company. How much more of this game to watch or why not pack up the railway system totally.
After yhe plane crash people prefered rail, so it may be the transport mafia who may be behind these bombings
