I was sitting in the Peshawar Press Club when I heard voice of a big bomb blast. According to initial reports, more than 12 people have been killed in the blast occured in front of a cinema hall situated some one kilometer away from Peshawar Press Club. There are rumours that terrorists have entered the city in large number and may be carrying out more attacks. At the moment terror and fear are riegning supreme.
Reports from Swat and other regions said that a large number of people have been killed in the fighting. At the moment there is complete confusion as the people in Peshawar have also started running for their lives. The situation is very tense. I am also feeling the terror, therefore, I am making an appeal here to please pray for the peace.
