Pakistanis die hitting anti-tank mine with hammer
Wed 13 October, 2004 13:34
ISLAMABAD (Reuters) - Two Pakistani villagers were killed in an explosion after they tried to break open an anti-tank mine with a hammer to use the casing for a stove to fry snacks, police say.
Villager Muhammad Latif found the mine in a village near the town of Sialkot, near Pakistan's heavily fortified border with rival India, and brought it home, Mirza Zafar, a senior police officer in Sialkot, told Reuters on Wednesday.
Latif wanted to use the casing to make a stove to cook pakora, a type of fried snack popular during the Muslim fasting month of Ramadan that starts this weekend, he said.
The mine exploded when Latif tried to smash it open with a hammer, killing him and another man and wounding a three-year-old child, another police officer said.
