Bomb near Kainat’s house kills one in Swat

At least one woman was reportedly killed and six others, including children, were injured in a bomb blast near the house of Kainat Riaz, one of the girls who was accompanying Malala Yousafzai when she was attacked by the Taliban.

According to the media reports, a woman who had come to visit the residents of a house in Makan Bagh area of Mingora was killed. As a result of the blast, four other women and two children were also wounded who were shifted to Sedo Sharif Hospital.

Some reports claimed that the explosives were planted near Kainat’s house. However, some contradicted it saying it was a cylinder blast.

Kainat just recently returned to school and despite trauma from the shooting, was very excited about it. She was injured when Tehreek-i-Taliban Pakistan (TTP) members shot Malala Yousufzai, a 15-year-old child activist, who is currently recovering in a UK hospital.
