According to details, the spokesperson of Russian foreign ministry, Maria Zakharova, decried the attack and said such incidents could not be tolerated on any level.
The investigation agencies of Pakistan have made key progress in probe of the incident and detained nine more suspects in the case with the help of the mobile phone data.
