DERA BUGTI:
Miscreants blew up a 16-inch gas pipeline in the Pirco area of Dera Bugti on Wednesday, suspending gas supply in the area, reported Express News.
According to officials, fire erupted after the blast but was soon extinguished.
Authorities said it might take three to four days for the pipeline to be repaired.
In Balochistan, miscreants often blow up gas pipelines suspending supply to homes and factories. Last year in December, unidentified militants planted explosives next to the main pipeline in Swabi which suspended supply in the area for a day causing inconvenience.
