A swift counterterrorism response by police and the Counter Terrorism Department (CTD) eliminated two target killers responsible for the martyrdom of a police constable in the Shahbaz Khel area of Lakki Marwat.
Constable Mumtaz was targeted by armed men riding a motorcycle at the main adda in Shahbaz Khel. He sustained critical injuries in the attack and was shifted to the District Headquarters Hospital in Tajazai, where he succumbed to his wounds.
Police and CTD personnel responded promptly, tracking down and eliminating both target killers involved in the attack. Their swift action brought an immediate response against those responsible for targeting a police officer.
A hand grenade was also recovered from the crime scene, adding to the security concerns surrounding the attack. The assailants had fled the scene after opening fire on the constable.
The rapid response underscores the importance of coordinated police and CTD operations in confronting targeted attacks against law enforcement personnel and pursuing those responsible for terrorist violence.
