   Pakistan  officials say two suicide bombers in the northwestern tribal
   belt have killed at least 40 people and wounded 60 others.
   Authorities say Monday's twin blasts happened inside the compound of a
   top local government official in the Mohmand tribal region.
   The  French  news  agency  reports an anti-Taliban peace committee was
   scheduled to meet with a local official in the compound.
