A car bomb killed one civilian and wounded five others in Pakistan\'s troubled southwest on Monday, police said. The bomb was planted in a car parked on a highway in Saryab, on the outskirts of Quetta, the capital of impoverished Baluchistan province, which suffers from a separatist insurgency, sectarian violence and Taliban militancy. Police suspected the target could have been shops owned by Shiite Muslims. \"The bomb was planted in a car. One person was killed and six were injured. All of them were civilians,\" Farid Breach, a senior police official, told AFP. \"We don\'t know about the target. There are some shops of the Shiite community near the blast site. They could have been the target,\" he added. Hundreds of civilians have been killed since Baluch rebels rose up in 2004 against the federal Pakistani government, demanding political autonomy and a greater share of profits from the region\'s oil, gas and mineral resources.
