Gas supply to many areas in Sindh suspended after attack.


Express January 20, 2011

Unidentified attackers on Thursday destroyed a gas pipeline near Kandh Kot which was supplying gas from Sui to Karachi.

Around 15-foot-long piece of the pipeline was destroyed suspending gas supply to many areas in Sindh. The pipeline was blown up in the Hajano area on the Sindh-Balochistan border.

Police and bomb disposal squad reached the site of the explosion, while investigations are underway.

Two similar cases took place in the recent past, where gas pipelines were blown up by militants in Balochistan. No organisation has claimed responsibility for the current attack as yet.
