World seeks answers regarding Pakistan terror attack

Pakistan was facing probing questions from world sports chiefs and the media today over how the terrorists who ambushed the Sri Lankan cricket team could attack such a high-profile target, then escape unscathed.

Former England Test cricketer-turned referee Chris Broad, who was caught up in Tuesday’s attack, said police abandoned him like a “sitting duck” and video showed the gunmen sauntering down a deserted side street, apparently leaving with no fear of pursuit.
