[The News (Pak) Top Stories] A militant commander, along with his two sons and other supporters, surrendered to security forces in the Charbagh area of the Swat Valley, while three insurgents were arrested from Matta bazaar on Tuesday. The Army-run Swat Media Centre said commander Saeed, along with his two sons -- identified as Liaqat and Khursheed -- and supporters Said Umar and Rahman, laid down arms and surrendered to security forces. In another incident, security forces arrested three militants from Matta bazaar and shifted them to an undisclosed location for interrogation. Meanwhile, the district police officer changed the name of the Green Chowk and named it after slain Sub-Inspector Farooq Khan, the brother of Minister for Environment and Forests Wajid Ali Khan. Farooq was shot dead by militants in Mingora. In the meantime, life was returning to normal here, as women were seen shopping in the markets after two years of violence. APP adds: Meanwhile, security forces conducted a search operation in Mangaltan and killed three suspected terrorists. The forces also apprehended 12 suspects from Kalagai near Matta, Dambara near Choga and Banda Ghal. Six other suspects were also arrested from Salhand near Shah Dheri. |
