THREE DEAD IN BLAST AT COLOMBIA MALL

BOGOTA: Three people including a young Frenchwoman were killed and nine wounded on Saturday when an explosion rocked an upscale mall in Colombia’s capital Bogota. President Juan Manuel Santos said there were “no clear indications” who was behind the explosion, stressing that those responsible would be captured and held accountable. “Terrorists are not going to change our ways,” he said at the scene of the attack, urging Colombians to continue “normal life” and enjoy the Father’s Day holiday on Sunday. One Frenchwoman died in the attack, according to the city’s mayor. Two Colombians also died, the Clinic of the Country said. Bogota mayor Enrique Penalosa also said authorities could not confirm “which group could be responsible” for the blast, but it was “a cowardly terrorist attack.”
