Another explosion rocked Koronadal City in South Cotabato province on Friday afternoon, killing one person and hurting another one, the provincial police commander said.
According to Sr. Supt. Robert Kuinisala, two bombs went off at around 5:25 pm inside the terminal of the Yellow Bus Line located along the Gen. Santos Drive in Koronadal City.
Kuinisala said the first explosion was at the waiting area where many people were seated. One died and another one was hurt in the incident.
A few minutes later, another blast ripped a nearby bus unit that had just finished offloading its passengers. The bus was totally burned, said Kuinisala.
He said bomb experts are determining the type of bomb used, although it initially appeared to be improvised devices.
Kuinisala said the bombings is related to the extortion attempts of the Al-Khobar Gang, having attacked for the third time yesterday this year the Yellow Bus Line following the management’s refusal to give in to the group’s demands./DMS
