In a suspected incident of suicide bombing, approximately 12 persons, including five women, were killed and 51 others injured when a car containing explosives exploded outside the boundary wall of the US Consulate in Karachi on June 14. According to media reports, one of the three vehicles, which came from the direction of Clifton Bridge and were passing through Abdullah Haroon Road, exploded near the US Consulate building after crossing the Marriott Hotel. However, top police officials while denying that the attack was a suicide bombing said that the bomb exploded in a moving vehicle. According to these sources, a car, in which four women were seated, was passing through the road and the blast resulted in the death of all the four occupants. Separately, other official sources were quoted as saying that the bomb was concealed in the car driven by a lady and that some persons, who were probably following the car, blew up the explosive device through remote control when the car reached near the US Consulate. The identity of the alleged suicide bomber has not been ascertained thus far.

Meanwhile, the United States on the same day, while condemning the terrorist attack outside its consulate in Karachi has closed down all its diplomatic missions in Pakistan as well as the American Centre in Islamabad. US President George W Bush said that "radical killers" were responsible for the terrorist incident. In a statement from Houston, he said that, "we fight an enemy that are radical killers. That's what they are. They claim they're religious people and they blow up Muslims. They have no regard for individual life." Separately, White House spokesperson Ari Fleischer said that the bombing demonstrated the dangers terrorists continue to pose for the United States in the wake of the September 11, 2001 strikes on US landmarks.

According to media reports of June 15, Karachi Police have questioned a number of people in connection with the June 14-car bomb explosion near the US Consulate-General. Media reports quoting police sources said agents of the Federal Investigation Bureau (FBI) had visited and examined the place of the blast. Reports added that movie cameras installed on all the sides of the US Consulate could be of much use for the FBI agents and police. Meanwhile the police are suspecting that the bomb was planted in the Toyota Corolla car belonging to Khanum Motor Training School and a remote-controlled device was used to set off the bomb. However, they ruled out the possibility of suicide bombing, as there were no evidences to substantiate such a claim. There were four women inside the Toyota car at the time of the blast. Media reports were critical of the arrogant behavior of investigators who raided the houses of the four women to question their family members.

According to media reports, following a group called Al Qanoon claiming responsibility for the June 14-bombing outside the US Consulate General in Karachi, an American media report said the attack could be the work of a new coalition of terrorist groups, with possible links to the Al Qaeda.

According to media reports, police have ruled out the possibility of suicide bombing in the June 14-bomb explosion near the US consulate in which 12 persons were killed and 51 others injured. Inspector General of Sindh Police Syed Kamal Shah said, on June 17, "So far, we have not found any evidence, which could lead us to believe that it was a suicide bombing." He clarified that there was no difference of opinion between agents of the US Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) and local investigators.

He said police had not made any formal arrest, thus far, in this case. Shah, while not ruling out the possibility of the involvement of foreign hand, including people from Afghanistan, added Al Qaeda cadres might be present in Karachi and local groups might also have been involved.
