Most of Bara cleared of militants
2014-12-28
[DAWN] The security forces have formally cleared most of Bara tehsil of faceless myrmidons setting the stage for the repatriation of around 100,000 displaced families next week, say official sources.
How's Mangal Bagh doing? Is he dead yet?
The sources told Dawn on Friday that last week, the Civil Secretariat Fata withdrew the notification, which was issued some years ago to declare most parts of Khyber Agency's Bara tehsil conflict zone, after the security forces restored peace there by eliminating hard boys.

They said the Fata Disaster Management Authority had sought Rs3.5 billion from the federal government for the repatriation of internally displaced persons to Khyber Agency.

The repatriation programme was to begin last week of the current month but it was deferred due to financial constraints
