Three persons injured in mysterious explosion
By Zahiruddin
CHITRAL: Three persons sustained injuries
as a result of mysterious explosion inside a vehicle in Airport
road here on Thursday morning. A pajero jeep driven by one Shahzada
Riaz was heading towards the city from Dolomutz town when the
incident took place. DHQ hospital sources said that Nizamuddin
advocate has sustained critical leg injuries while Shahzada Riaz
and Adina Khan sustained minor injuries and are admitted in the
hospital. Neither any major damage has been caused to the vehicle
nor any deep fissure has developed in the road where it took place.
Acting D.P.O. Inayatullah told chitraltimes.com that it is
premature to call it a bomb explosion as no fragments of bomb or
any explosive material were found on the spot. He said that the
district police has no bomb disposal squad to ascertain the nature
or cause of the explosion. He said that investigation of the
incident is in progress after which FIR will be registered.

C&W Tenders opens after bargaining
By Zahiruddin
CHITRAL: In the tenders for construction
of a number of schools and colleges in the district, the
communication and works (C&W) department officials freely allowed
the contractors to buy out the contracts from each other and gave
them four extra hours to complete the process, a number of
contractors alleged. They said that as per advertisement in the
press, the tender forms were to be cast in the tender box by 12
0’clock but the box was not made available to give the contractors
additional bargaining time. They demanded cancellation of the
tenders and call tenders afresh and complete the bidding process
according to the procedure and code.
