Source: Yahoo/IB Times

An explosion at a brothel in Bauchi, north-east Nigeria, has killed 10 people and wounded 14 others, according to police.

"The entire building has been cordoned off and the scene secured. No arrest has been made but an investigation has commenced to ascertain the cause," said Bauchi state police spokesman Haruna Mohammed.

Mohammed added that 14 people were rushed to hospital following the blast at the People's Hotel brothel in the Bayangari area of the city.

No group has yet claimed responsibility for the blast but Boko Haram has targeted spots in northern Nigerian cities considered "un-Islamic" such as brothels and bars.
