The Islamic rage over the Danish cartoons of Mohammed has claimed at least six more lives in Pakistan, with a bomb attack outside the Danish embassy in Islamabad.

At least six people have been killed and 30 injured in a car bomb attack near the Danish embassy in the Pakistani capital Islamabad.

An embassy worker was among the dead and three were hurt but no Danish citizens were killed or injured.

Danish PM Anders Fogh Rasmussen called the act “cowardly” and said it would not change Danish policies.

The BBC is mystified. Who could have done this?

It was not clear who carried out the attack, as Pakistan’s main militant group recently declared a ceasefire.
