A bomb exploded on Friday during prayers at an Islamic seminary in northwestern Pakistan known as a historic training ground for the Afghan Taliban, killing no fewer than six worshippers.

The police reported that several others were wounded including the head of the religious school, Maulana Hamid-ul-Haq, son of the late Maulana Sami-ul-Haq, considered the father of the Taliban.

Regional police officer Najeebur Rahman said Haq was in critical condition.

No group has claimed responsibility for the attack.

DAILY POST reports that Pakistan is battling twin insurgencies, one mounted by Islamists and the other by ethnic militants seeking secession over what they say is the government’s unfair division of natural resources.
