4 policemen dead in gunbattle with terrorists during Quetta operation
2023-04-12
[Dawn] An intelligence-based operation in Quetta turned deadly in the early hours of Tuesday, with at least four coppers losing their lives in a gunbattle with terrorists, according to the police.

Senior Superintendent of Police (Operations) in Quetta Capt (retd) Zuhaib Moshin told Dawn.com that the operation was launched to neutralise bandidos hard boyz who had been involved in past attacks on security forces in Kuchlak.

The operation was conducted in conjunction with Frontier Constabulary personnel.

During the operation, law enforcement personnel surrounded a house in Kuchlak, from which the bandidos hard boyz opened fire on the officers, resulting in the tragic loss of four of them, the SSP said.

In response, the personnel retaliated, resulting in the death of one of the terrorists.

Police officials recovered weapons and ammunition from the dear departed terrorist, prompting the SSP to suggest that he could have been involved in an attack on coppers two days prior, as well as an attack on the Frontier Constabulary a week ago.

The body of the alleged terrorist was taken to a Quetta hospital to establish his identity, while the remains of the four officers were transported to Police Lines Quetta.

Later, the funeral prayers of the martyred coppers were offered at the Quetta Police Lines. It was attended by senior officers, including Balochistan
