In an unusual incident, a hand grenade submitted as proof in a Pakistani anti-terrorism court on Monday accidentally went off in Karachi, injuring three persons.
The explosion took place in the court where the judge was presiding over a high-profile terror case.
The grenade was among weapons and explosives recovered from a suspect against which a case had been filed in the ATC for illegal possession of explosives.
"The police had submitted some explosive material in the court as property in the case and one hand grenade went off accidentally causing injuries and panic in the court when the policeman was recording his statement," he said.
