The Holy Warriors wanted to teach the infidels at the women’s rights group a lesson.
Unfortunately, they blew up before they could plant their bomb.
ROP and AFP reported:
PESHAWAR, Pakistan (AFP) — A pro-Taliban militant was killed and two others wounded in a botched attempt to blow up the office of a women’s rights group in troubled northwest Pakistan, police said.
The militants had been trying to plant a bomb at the Khawando Kor (Sisters’ Home) in Karak town, about 100 kilometres (60 miles) south of provincial capital Peshawar late Sunday, local police officer Hajit Khan said.
The bomb exploded prematurely and one militant was killed, Khan said, adding that two injured accomplices had been arrested. The office was not damaged.
The trio had taken part in the “holy war” against the Soviets in neighbouring Afghanistan in the 1980s and were now supporting the hardline Taliban waging an insurgency there, he said.
