KANDAHAR: A bomb blast at an Afghan university killed two students on Saturday in Kandahar, one of the most troubled places in Afghanistan, police said. One of the dead was also secretary of the police chief of Kandahar province. “The blast took place near the engineering faculty of Kandahar University and has killed two students, one of them my office secretary,” police chief General Abdul Razaq said. A second explosion, which happened after police cordoned off the area, injured three people, including two policemen, he said. Both blasts had been caused by remote-controlled improvised explosive devices (IEDs). Shortly afterwards, Kandahar’s top justice official, Aqil Shah Khan, survived an assassination attempt in a drive-by shooting, Razaq said. “He was shot at by two motorcycle riders, but the round hit his hand and he is slightly injured and currently in hospital receiving treatment,” he added. afp
