Shezadi (13) was killed and seven persons were injured in the blast on Friday, which was intended to target an army convoy, Brigadier General Staff (Media) G D Bakshi told PTI.

Angry residents took out a demonstration on Sunday. Jamait-I-Islami leader Syed Ali Shah Geelani, who went to sympathise with the bereaved family, left the place after noting the mood of the people, Bakshi said.
