Bomb attack kills 2 in Pakistan's Swat valley: police

A bomb attack killed two people and wounded at least 15 others Thursday in the main town of Pakistan's Swat valley, where the military put down a Taliban uprising last year, police said.

"At least two people were killed and 15 wounded," said Qazi Jamil, police chief for the northwestern Malakand region that includes Swat.

"The blast occurred by the bus terminal. An army patrol was passing from the road," he said, indicating the Pakistani military could have been the target.

Police said initial reports suggested it was a suicide attack. Mingora is about 125 kilometres (80 miles) northwest of the capital Islamabad.
