Pakistan security forces have detected and defused a live-bomb planted on a rail track near the Jungshahi railway station in Thatta averting another major terror attack in Pakistan after the recent Quetta bomb blast.
The bomb was discovered on a train track leading to Karachi, three kilometres from the Jungshahi railway station in Thatta. A bomb disposal squad dispatched from Hyderabad safely defused the 0.5kg bomb, SSP Thatta Shabbir Sethar said.
The remote-controlled bomb could have targetted the Hazara Express and Zakaria Express scheduled on the route.
