From The Times:
The strip search preceding the attack on Dec. 6 didn't find anything because the bomb was hidden in the man's rectum, according to a source speaking to the Times.
The suicide bomber ended up being the only one killed in the explosion, with Khalid receiving non-life threatening injuries.
Mr. Khalids aides took the visitor to an armored room in the basement of a safe house in Taimani, an upscale neighborhood in the capital city, for a security screening. They were no doubt mindful of what happened in September 2011 when a Taliban peace emissary was allowed to meet with a prominent Afghan peace envoy and then killed him with a bomb hidden in his turban.
Watching the man over closed-circuit television, they ordered him to strip naked, which he did. Satisfied, they let him get dressed and took him to see their boss upstairs.
