A suicide bomber has targeted a Shiite shrine packed with worshippers in a remote village in Pakistan, killing 20 people and leaving at least 25 wounded in an apparent sectarian attack.

The attacker detonated his explosives vest when he was stopped for a routine search by a police officer guarding the shrine in the village of Jhal Masgi, about 240 miles east of Quetta, the capital of Baluchistan province.
