SUKKUR: A main transmission line supplying gas to Quetta from Sui exploded near village Mohammad Bux Malik, an area close to Thull, late Sunday night, suspending supply of gas to many cities and towns of Balochistan.
An official of the bomb disposal squad said that the pipeline was very old and rusty and exploded due to high pressure of gas. The official said that no traces of explosives were found which shows it was not a result of an attack.
