Woman suicide bomber attacks Qazi Hussain Ahmed

PESHAWAR: A woman suicide bomber targeted former chief of the Jamaat-e-Islami, Qazi Hussain Ahmed, near the Afghan border on Monday, wounding at least four local party workers, officials said.

Ahmed escaped unscathed after the attack in Mohmand.

Mohmand is one of seven districts in the country’s semi-autonomous tribal belt, where Taliban and al Qaeda-linked terrorists have carved out strongholds.

Local administrative official Adil Siddique told AFP Ahmed had been en route to address a public meeting in the Haleemzai area when the woman blew herself up on foot alongside his convoy.

Ahmed’s vehicle was not damaged or hit by the force of the blast, which wounded four local members of the Jamaat-e-Islami, Siddique said. Another local official, Jamshed Khan, confirmed the incident and said “pieces of female clothes and hair found from the site make us believe that the attacker was a woman”.

Meanwhile, Prime Minister Raja Pervez Ashraf condemned the terrorist attack on Qazi Hussain Ahmed, and telephoned him to inquire about the incident. The PM also expressed best wishes for Ahmed’s health and welfare.
