Islamabad, Nov 13 (IBNS) Days after a deadly suicide bombing occurred at the Wagah in Pakistan, close to the Indian border, the outlawed Tehreek-i-Taliban Pakistan Jamaatul Ahrar has released details of a man they claim carried out the attack, media reports said.

A spokesman for the militant group, Ehsanullah Ehsan, told Dawn.com on Thursday that 25-year-old Hanifullah alias Hamza carried out the attack that killed 60 people returning from the ‘flag-lowering’ ceremony at the Wagah border gate, a display of military pageantry which attracts thousands of spectators and tourists every day.

The newspaper reported that a photo of the alleged bomber has also been released.

Ehsan claimed that the banned outfit will release a video of the attack which occurred on Sunday.
