The men apparently wanted to plant the device at the main cattle market in Cheecha Watni, 60 miles east of Multan, a city in the eastern province of Punjab. "We believe that these two terrorists wanted to target the cattle market, where hundreds of people were present to buy or sell goats and other animals at the time," said Mohammed Bashir, a local police chief. One passer-by was slightly injured when the bomb went off, he said. Related to this article Latest Comments Oh those poor, poor people. If they had just come to Canada,...

Pakistan is a key ally of the United States in its war on terror. In recent months, tribal militants have vowed to avenge the killing of their associates by Pakistani forces in the country's deeply conservative tribal areas, where Pakistan has deployed about 80,000 soldiers to flush out Taliban and al-Qaida after the Sept. 11, 2001, attacks in America. theglobeandmail.com
