The spokesman of the Senate Secretariat has contradicted the contents of the news reports by a section of press which gave the impression that the Committee members survived bomb attack on Tank-Wana Dam project. Clarifying the position, the spokesman said the Committee members led by Senator Hafiz Abdul Malik Qadri were given detailed briefing by the Wapda authorities at the site of under construction Gomal Zam Dam.

The Senate Committee delegation was returning to Tank when a bomb exploded in which political agent Wana was injured. The spokesman said the members of the delegation had already passed when the bomb exploded.
