Pak suicide blast kills ten, including election candidate

A suicide bomber killed at least ten people, including an election candidate and injured 13 others in Pakistan’s North Waziristan tribal region on Monday.

The attacker rammed his car, which was laden with explosives into candidate, Nisar Ali's convoy, police said on condition of anonymity.

"Ten people were killed, including election candidate Nisar Ali and an administration official, while 13 others were wounded in the attack on their convoy," the Dawn quoted an official, saying.

Elections in Pakistan will be held on February 18.

On Saturday, a suicide bomber had attacked an election rally of the opposition Awami National Party, killing at least 30 and wounding several others. (ANI)
