The Chief Minister of Pakistan’s restive Khyber-Pakhtunkhwa province Ameer Haider Khan Hoti today escaped a apparent assassination attempt when a powerful bomb went off near the venue of a political rally addressed by him, killing seven persons and injuring 24 others.
The bomb, planted in a motorcycle, was triggered by remote control after the Chief Minister had left the venue in a helicopter with senior leaders of the Awami National Party, which rules Khyber-Pakhtunkhwa province. No leaders of the ANP were among the casualties, police said.
