Pakistan's Taliban has denied responsibility for twin bomb blasts that ripped through a crowded market in the northwestern city of Peshawar on Saturday, killing 39 people and injuring dozens more.
A Taliban suicide bomber flattened a north-west Pakistani police station on Wednesday, killing six people in the latest attack on security forces since US troops killed Osama bin Laden.
Leaked US reports say that an al-Qaeda “assassin” who may have worked for British and Canadian intelligence was “possibly involved” in the 2002 Karachi bombings which killed 11 French submarine engineers and two Pakistanis.
