Grenades injure seven at Imran Khan rally

[INDENT=2]
PESHAWAR: At least seven people were injured on Friday in grenade explosions after a public rally held by Imran Khan near the northwestern town of Swabi, police said.

"Unknown men threw two hand grenades on a police van and later opened fire after Khan's public meeting on the outskirts of Swabi, wounding seven people", local police official Muhammad Shah said.

Shah said Khan had already left the venue when the attack happened, adding that the injured included four policemen.

The 59-year-old former cricketer Khan has ridden a wave of support buoyed by mass rallies and has openly backed the courts’ pursuit of embattled President Asif Ali Zardari and Prime Minister Yousuf Raza Gilani.

Now this is not fair. I saw the Sawabi rally and it was a great show. Imran criticised ANP and Sawabi is one of their strongholds. Let us see what comes out of it.

Some people are just too afraid to face new political ground realities. But stopping the change by violence is totally unacceptable :nono:

If it would have been Taliban , then it must have been a suicidal one , but this seems like a local political war .
