| PESHAWAR: Four policemen were killed while five others sustained injuries when three suicide bombers launched a pre-dawn attack on a police station in the Old City area on Friday. It was the second terrorist attack in the city in two consecutive days, as Thursday’s attack on a bus terminal on Kohat Road killed 13 people. “We have lost three brave policemen. The attack was repulsed properly and heavy loss was avoided,” Peshawar CCPO Imtiaz Altaf said during his visit to the C-Division Police Station – the crime scene – in the Kotwali area. The fourth policeman died in the hospital. He repeated that the attacks were in reaction to the military action being taken against terrorists in the Khyber and Orakzai tribal regions. |
