Four More Die in Pakistani Tanker Fire, Pushing Toll to 173

MULTAN, PAKISTAN � A Pakistani doctor says four more victims of last week's oil tanker fire have died, raising the death toll to 173.

Abdul Basit says the four men were among dozens of injured who were brought to a main government hospital in the city of Multan after an oil tanker overturned and burst into flames. Basit said Thursday doctors are still treating 37 others.

The June 25 highway explosion took place outside the city of Bahawalpur when the driver of the tanker lost control and crashed. The tanker burst into flames when villagers were collecting the leaking fuel, ignoring warning from police.

Tens Of Thousands Protest Lax Security After Double Bombing In Pakistan

Tens of thousands of people gathered for a sit-in protest in the town of Parachinar, Pakistan, on June 29 to demand better security a week after a double bombing in a market killed 75 people.

The demonstrators � many of them from Pakistan's Shi'a minority -- are angry about what they say is the failure of authorities to provide security.

They have become more enraged by the reported shooting deaths of three protesters by police during the past week.

Arshad Umerzai, a former provincial government minister, said Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif and Pakistan's army chief should visit Parachinar � a town in the Kurram tribal region close to the border with Afghanistan � in response to the violence there.

Sharif announced a 1 million rupees ($10,000) compensation package for the families of each victim of the blasts, and 500,000 rupees for the wounded.

But demonstrators have dismissed that, saying victims of attacks in other places have received more money.

Sajid Toori, a lawmaker from Parachinar, said on June 29 that the sit-in protest will continue until Sharif's government announces greater compensation and additional security measures for Shi'a who dominate the Kurram tribal region.
