PESHAWAR: Awami National Party leader Haroon Bilour’s funeral prayers were offered on Wednesday at the Wazir Bagh area, ARY News reported.
A large number of party supporters and leaders attended the Haroon Bilour’s funeral prayers. He was laid to rest at the ancestral Pir Syed Hussain Shah graveyard alongside his father Bashir Bilour.
Haroon Bilour was among 21 people who was killed and 75 others were injured during a suicide blast in Peshawar’s Yakatut on Tuesday. He was campaigning for the upcoming elections when a suicide attacker reportedly entered a corner meeting leader and blew himself up.
Bilour’s father, Bashir Ahmed Bilour, too had lost his life in a 2012 suicide bomb explosion in the Qissa Khwani bazar. He was the eldest son of Bashir Bilour and was contesting elections from the same constituency as his late father.
