Karachi: At least 10 people died and several others were hurt as a blast rocked Pakistan's Karachi city on Saturday.
Shaheed Mohtarma Benazir Bhutto Hospital Trauma Centre head Dr Sabir Memon confirmed to Geo News that the number of people who died as a result of the blast had increased to 10.
Four injured people are said to be in critical condition.
Police told Geo News the blast took place in a nullah located in the area and caused immense damage to the building of a private bank which was constructed on the nullah.
The blast took place after gas from a Sui pipeline running through the nullah leaked and caused the explosion, the news channel reported.
