| At least seven people have been killed in violence in the restive regions of the northwestern Pak province of Khyber-Pakhtunkhwa. ... formerly NWFP, still Terrorism Central... Pak police foiled a kaboom in the town of Kohat early Friday in the country's northwest by killing a bomber who was carrying explosives and hand grenades near a passport office, a Press TV correspondent reported, quoting local officials. Meanwhile, ...back at the ranch... hard boyz in the town of Hangu in the same province assailed the residence of a female police officer and murdered six people in the house. In a separate incidence, hard boyz also destroyed a gas pipeline in the Sui district in Balochistan province on Friday, disrupting the gas supply to parts of the province. The attack came a day after hard boyz blasted a main gas pipeline in Jafar Abad area of Balochistan in the country's east. Militants in Pakistain have staged several attacks in major cities across the country as well as smaller areas over the past years. The Mighty Pak Army has launched several operations in the northwest in a bid to flush out pro-Talibs from its tribal areas. Militants have been blamed for the deaths of thousands of people in the nationwide attacks in recent years. |
