In the latest attack in a wave of sectarian violence, 39 Sunni Pakistanis were killed and 84 wounded after a rally for assasinated Sunni religous
leader, Azam Tariq. At the end of the overnight rally in the city of Multan that marked the one year anniversary of Tariq's assasination, a suicide
car bomber drove his vehicle into the crowd and then exploded.

The car exploded after being driven into a crowd of mourners at the overnight rally in the city of Multan to mark the first anniversary of the shooting of extremist Sunni religious leader Azam Tariq.
"It is believed a suicide bomber was at the wheel," Sikander Hayat, district police officer of Multan city, told Reuters.
The rally had concluded and people were dispersing in pre-dawn darkness when the blast ripped through the crowd, he said. "The moment people came out of the ground, a car came and hit them exploding into pieces," he said.
At least 39 people were killed and 84 wounded, said Arif Sial, medical superintendent at Multan's main Nishat Hospital.

This attack follows a suicide bomber detonating his explosives in a Shi'ite mosque in the eastern city of Sialkot on Oct. 2, killing 30 people.
It is hard to imagine what the unrest may lead to.
