Pakistan: Bomb kills Punjab Home Minister

Rescuers in Northern Pakistan have dug desperately through the remains of a minister's house flattened by a suicide bomb attack. At least nine people are known to have died and up to 20 are buried under the rubble. A brave man, an inspiring presence, an out and out nationalist.

He was one of those killed. Punjab is Pakistan’s biggest and wealthiest province. It is the political heartland of Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif.
