Men carry the body of a bomb victim, who was killed in an attack on a bus of Shi'ites Muslims travelling to a religious procession a day earlier, to their funeral in Karachi February 6, 2010. Pakistan's commercial capital Karachi was tense on Saturday a day after two bombs killed 25 people, raising further questions about the effectiveness of security crackdowns on al Qaeda-linked militants. The first attack on Friday targeted Shi'ites travelling in a bus to a religious procession, followed hours later by a blast at a hospital where the wounded were being treated.
