In Wednesday’s suicide attack, the bomber targeted a shuttle bus of Kaboora Production, a sister entity to TOLO TV, on Dar-ul-Aman road near the Russian embassy in which seven employees of the production lost lives and 20 others sustained injuries.
Taliban who had threatened Tolo TV in October claimed responsibility for it.
