Bomb blast in Karachi kills two

KARACHI, Saturday (Reuters) A time bomb exploded in the southern Pakistani port city of Karachi on Saturday, killing two people and wounding three, police said.

The 3-kg (6.6-lb) bomb blew up outside a car rental shop in an affluent southern neighbourhood, a Karachi police spokesman said. "We are trying to determine the motive behind the bombing." The explosion, which occurred at around 6:30 a.m. gouged a 2-ft (0.6-meter) deep crater in the pavement and damaged three cars, witnesses said.

Police and paramilitary rangers cordoned off the site, they said. All the victims worked at the car rental shop which counts government officials among its customers, shop owner Mohammed Akram said.
