According to Express News correspondent Jahangir Shehzad, Baghwan had traveled out of the city and when returned home around 11 pm he found a suspicious bag placed outside his house.
Baghwan called police and bomb disposal squad (BDS).
Police said that the device weighed around two kilogram and it had been placed just outside the main gate of the house in a ghee tin.
“The device was left by two men who were riding a bike and I called police just as a precautionary measure,” said Jamshed Baghwan while talking to the Express Tribune.
Police said that the BDS defused the device with the help of a water charge.
“It was a medium intensity device which could cause serious damage to the building but luckily it was spotted in time and defused,” said police.
On January 17, 2014, three Express Media Group employees were shot dead in Karachi. The attack had followed two attacks on the Express News offices in Karachi on December 2 and August 16, 2013 when armed assailants fired and lobbed improvised explosive devices at the building.

@fifo: The man who defused the bomb: "It's alright, thank you"
No problem Express News. This is because the veracity of your reporting is stinging them. These incidents have also taken place in Karachi and of course, the LEAs are unable to trace the suspects. Keep the flag flying high. Salams
why dont they put that much effort into helping Needy people of Karachi? Instead of trying to harm people. Its a damn shame.
Thank God! great tragedy avoided through divine intervention
