Twelve people have died and 15 others injured in a bombing in Peshawar in North-western Pakistan.



Police said a suicide bomber attacked a police investigation bureau in the Swati Pathak area, which is close to a Pakistani army garrison.



Meanwhile, security has been tightened nationwide after about 40 people were killed in Lahore in the North-west yesterday.



Those attacks were the latest in a recent wave of brazen militant assaults across the country.



Officials have said the latest strikes appear to be aimed directly at Pakistan\'s police services.
