Bid to burn school foiled
2004-02-22
An attempt to burn another community school foiled at Rim Tangir Valley of Diamer District. Police also arrested on Saturday five more suspects for torching the schools. Police said all detained suspects belonged to outlawed religious organisations.
Tap. Tap. No reaction on the old surprise meter...
The police said early in the morning some people tried to set afire a primary school set up under the Social Action Programme, but the policemen on duty fired on them. The attackers fled. It was 10th attempt on the community primary schools in different parts of the Diamer district. Northern Areas IGP Sakhiullah Tareen told journalists there was no proper security systems in 118 community schools. He said they had sent over 500 police personnel to Diamer.

Free-Association Test: Read the phrase and name the first religion that comes to mind.
