MIRANSHAH: Security forces on Saturday shot dead a suspected terrorist who had attacked a convoy of army vehicles, military sources said. Six army jawans had been wounded in two attacks on two different convoys heading towards Miranshah, the capital of troubled North Waziristan, sources said. However, military sources in Peshawar confirmed one attack but said no soldier had been wounded. Eyewitnesses said that a remote control bomb, which had been triggered to strike another army convoy coming from Dattakhel area to Miranshah near Chunghi Chowk just outside Miranshah bazaar, wounded four soldiers. Two injured civilians were also seen fleeing the site of attack but it was unclear how they got injured. Meanwhile, one tribesman died and another injured when a bomb exploded in a scrap shop in Ghulam Khan bazaar, 15 kilometres north of Miranshah, eyewitnesses said. |
