    “A bomb attached to a bicycle was detonated through a time device near the Afghan Red Crescent office building in provincial capital Pul-e-Alam city. Those killed included two policemen and four civilians,” Xinhua quoted provincial government spokesperson Din Mohammad Darwish as saying.

    Two of the injured people sustained life-threatening wounds, the source said, blaming the Taliban for the attack in the province, 60 km south of Afghan capital Kabul.
