Janakpur blast claims another life

Janakpurdham, April 8:

Kunil Das, one of the three injured in the Janakpur blast yesterday, was killed while she was being taken to Darbhanga in India for treatment today. She and three others were seriously injured while Om Sahani was killed when a bomb they were playing with went off at Pulchowk in Janakpur municipality yesterday.

The condition of Arjun Sahani and Megha Sahani is reported to be critical. The bomb that was wrapped in paper went off as the children were playing with it, police said. Human rights activists have urged all sides to the conflict not to place explosives at public places.

Care Medical Centre is providing free treatment for the injured children. Two years ago, three children of the district were killed while playing with a bomb at Mujeliya.
