PESHAWAR - The number of fatalities in a devastating suicide bombing at a crowded mosque at the Police Lines compound in Peshawar has surged to 72 as rescue teams retrieved nine more bodies from the debris of the mosque in the predawn hours of Tuesday.

According to police, the explosion occurred in the central hall of the mosque at 1 PM, causing the roof to come crashing down upon those who were offering Zuhr prayers at the time.

According to security officials, the suicide attacker was present in the front row during the Zuhr prayer when he exploded himself. Sahibzada Noor Ul Amin, Imam of the mosque, was also martyred in the blast, police said.
