Respected Journalists
First of all we are thankful to you for coming to attend this Press Conference.
You know it very well that a massive bomb blast had rocked Abbas Town in which over 50 innocent people died and over 150 were seriously wounded which includes women, children and elderly. Many people are still unaccounted for. Hundreds of residential flats have been damaged. Poor inhabitants of Abbas Town have lost everything. It has been three days since this tragic incident occurred but no action has been taken against the terrorists. Attempt is being made to hoodwink the people into believing that certain terrorists connected with the tragedy have been arrested.
