[DAWN] Two Afghan-based Tehrik-e-Taliban ...the Pashtun equivalent of men... (TTP) bully boyz were tracked down and killed by security forces in Bajaur Agency, aka Turban Central ![]() during an intelligence-based operation (IBO), an Inter-Services Public Relations (ISPR) blurb said on Monday. The suspected gunnies entered Bajaur Agency via the Kagha Pass. They were tracked down by security forces and surrounded by a cordon near the Ghatki Kaga area, the ISPR said, and were killed when they attempted to escape. Suicide jackets, anti-tank mines, magnetic mines, prepared remote-controlled Improvised Explosive Devices, remote-controlled receivers, detonators and communications equipment "bearing [an] Afghan mobile company's signature" were recovered from the possession of the myrmidons, ISPR said. The ISPR added that, through the IBO, the security forces had foiled a major terror bid in Khyber-Pakhtunkhwa, the Federally Administered Tribal Areas and Islamabad. |
