KARACHI: The Railway police on Sunday registered a terrorism case against unknown persons for planting a \u2018time bomb\u2019 in a train.<\/p>\n
On Friday night, an imp\u00adro\u00advised explosive device (IED), fitted with a timer, was found in a school bag from a bogey of Awam Express at the Cantonment Railway Station. The bomb disposal squad defused the device which contained around 2.5-kg explosives.<\/p>\n
Officials said that a case was registered under Sect\u00adions 4\/5 of the Explosives Act and Section 7 of the Anti-Terrorism Act of 1997 on behalf of the state on the complaint of Pakistan Rail\u00adways employee Shoaib Raza.<\/p>\n
The complainant said that he was checking the Bogey No 5 of Awam Express at Drigh Road Railway Station when he saw a bag under seat No 71. He asked passengers who expressed their ignorance about its owner.<\/p>\n
In the meantime, he stated the train reached the Canton\u00adment Station. He took the unattended bag to a help centre, where Const\u00adable Mohammed Nawaz opened it and found a device attached with a battery and some wires.<\/p>\n
The constable immediately informed the bomb disposal squad, who termed it a time bomb and took the bag to a platform with all precautions and defused it.<\/p>\n
