A car bomb explosion in front of the Danish embassy in Pakistan's capital, Islamabad, has killed at least six people and injured around 30 others.
Most of the dead are believed to have been Pakistanis. The Danish Foreign Ministry has confirmed that a Pakistani-born Danish citizen was among those killed in the blast. No group has claimed responsibility for the attack, however it is believed to be linked to the controversy surrounding caricatures of the prophet Mohammed, first published in Denmark in 2005, and reprinted in February of this year. Danish Prime Minister Anders Fogh Rasmussen has described the bombing as cowardly and said it would not change Danish policy.
