ISLAMABAD, Pakistan, Aug. 22 (UPI) -- The Pakistani election commission announced in Islamabad Friday that lawmakers will vote Sept. 6 to replace resigned President Pervez Musharraf.
The announcement came a day after two suicide attacks outside the country's biggest weapons factory complex. The death toll in those bombings rose to 78 on Friday, said Rao Muhammad Iqbal, the
city police chief of Rawalpindi.
Rao said 103 people were wounded in the deadliest strike by the Taliban in the past 18 months.
