The bomb, placed inside a cement block, was planted near a school. Upon being alerted by the school’s gatekeeper, police and the bomb disposal squad (BDS) reached the scene and defused the bomb.
According to BDS officials, the bomb contained around 13kg of explosives as well as ball bearings. The bomb also had a detonator, signifying that it was remotely controlled.
Earlier, in a similar incident, the BDS managed to disarm a bomb placed in an empty plot on the Super Highway near the the Rangers’ Sachal Wing headquarters.
The bomb carried 12 kilograms of explosives as well as ball bearings and was made in an oil canister.

The Indians are sending secret agents to sow seeds of conflict.
OMG
@gp65: As yours escape by blaming ISI
@Maria: "@BruteForce: Whether you understand it or not, RAW is behind a lot of the crime and terrorism in Pakistan – either directly through its agents from India or through their lackeys in Afghanistan who cross the Western border"
If India had the capacity to do stuff i Pakistan - the people it would go after are Dawood Ibrahim. Hafiz Saeed, Lakhvi etc. who have Indian blood on their hand. Why would it go after innocent scool children?
And while in this case mercifully the loss of lives was prevented (Thank God), if your ISI is as wonderful as yuo claim it is - how is it allowing so many RAW agents to operate so blatantly in Pakistan? Finally, do you know that Karachi is really close to Indian border? What would be the logic of sending people through Afghanistan to Karachi?
Your agencies are simply escaping accountability by constantly blaming RAW.
@BruteForce: Whether you understand it or not, RAW is behind a lot of the crime and terrorism in Pakistan - either directly through its agents from India or through their lackeys in Afghanistan who cross the Western border. I salute the law enforcement personnel who have acted in a timely manner to thwart the efforts of these cowards.
This has RAW written all over it. I miss people of Pakistan blaming RAW for acts clearly were perpetrated by the very people they used to call liberators. The frequency has gone down.
Ahhh looks like one of our bombs from RAW funded terrorists shhhh :p

Good work ,,,,,,, keep it up BDS ........
This was actually a suicide bomber.
Going by the past happenings, this must have been done by one of the breeds of Molvies.
