 ISLAMABAD, Pakistan (AP) - Suicide bombers killed 67 people at Pakistan's largest arms factory Thursday in one of the country's deadliest terror attacks, adding to turmoil from political squabbling that is threatening to tear apart the ruling coalition now that Pervez Musharraf has quit as president.
The twin bombings, which also wounded more than 100 people, hit one of Pakistan's most sensitive and heavily guarded military installations, underlining the threat posed by Islamic militants to the Muslim world's only nuclear-armed nation as well as its war-ravaged neighbor, Afghanistan.
Police said Friday that a third attacker might have been involved. "The army and police arrested some suspected bomber not far away from scene of the attack. They also recovered a suicide jacket from a nearby mosque and seized explosives," said Mohammed Saeed, a police official.
