Islamabad [Pakistan]: As many as four people were killed and eight others were injured in twin bomb blasts in Balochistan's Dera Bugti on Friday, a media report said on Saturday.

Three Pakistani personnel and one Bugti clan elder was killed in the blast. No one has claimed responsibility for the explosions so far.

"Four people lost their lives in the blasts and eight others injured," an official of the Sui administration said, The official added that the solar penal of the tub-wall was badly damaged in the last night attack.
