A much hyped claim made by the Frontier Corps (FC) of recovering 6,000-7,000 kilograms of explosives from a bus on the outskirts of the provincial capital has proven false. The recovered material was identified as harmless potassium chloride. Other household items including shoes, pulses and blankets were recovered among the items falsely reported as explosives.

Security forces had earlier announced that a bid to smuggle a huge quantity of explosives into the provincial capital was foiled early on Sunday.
