Islamabad Court Blast: 12 Killed, 27 Injured — Terror Strikes Outside Judicial Complex

A deadly suicide bombing outside a district court complex in Islamabad on November 11, 2025, shook the entire nation. Eyewitnesses reported that the blast occurred when a suspected attacker tried to enter the premises but detonated himself near a security vehicle after being stopped by guards. The explosion killed 12 people and left 27 others injured, including police officers, lawyers, and civilians.

Rescue and security teams rushed to the scene immediately. The area was sealed off, and the injured were transported to PIMS and Polyclinic hospitals, where officials confirmed that several victims were in critical condition.

Interior Minister Mohsin Naqvi strongly condemned the attack, calling it “an assault on the heart of the capital.” He ordered a full investigation and assured that those behind the bombing would be brought to justice. The government also pledged full support for the victims’ families and medical assistance for the injured.

Preliminary investigations suggest that the bombing was a well-planned and coordinated terrorist act. Although no group has yet claimed responsibility, authorities are examining possible links to the Tehrik-e-Taliban Pakistan (TTP) or other cross-border militant networks.

The tragic incident has raised serious concerns about judicial and public security in the capital. Legal communities and civil-society groups have urged the government to strengthen security around courts and government buildings to prevent future attacks.

Political leaders, judicial officials, and military representatives all condemned the bombing and expressed solidarity with the victims’ families. Both the ruling party and opposition reaffirmed their resolve to eliminate terrorism and protect national institutions.

Internationally, the attack drew widespread condemnation. Neighboring countries and global organizations expressed sympathy with Pakistan and offered assistance in medical and recovery efforts. The event once again placed Pakistan’s counter-terrorism strategy under global scrutiny.

This tragedy serves as a grim reminder that terrorism remains one of Pakistan’s greatest challenges. Security agencies must reassess their strategies and coordination mechanisms to ensure stronger protection for civilians—especially at judicial and administrative centers.

In this time of mourning, unity and resilience are essential. The nation stands with the families of the martyrs and prays for the speedy recovery of the injured. Pakistan must continue confronting extremism with determination so that such tragedies never happen again.
