School blown up in Darra Adamkhel
Unknown miscreants late on Monday blew up the Government High School for Boys, Sunnikhel, Darra Adamkhel -- the ninth institute which was destroyed in the area. Sources said five bombs were planted to the school walls that completely reduced the building into rubble.

Girls' education was stopped in the area as all the schools, whether primary or high, were blown up by unknown militants in the gun-manufacturing town of Darra. Similarly, in the Tor Chappar area of Darra Adamkhel, no boys or girls' school was opened for students at the moment.

Those who could afford had either sent their children to Kohat or Peshawar for studies, while many coming from the poor families had stopped their education, the sources said. DCO Siraj Ahmad Khan said the government was trying its level best to reopen the schools in the FR Kohat area, including Darra Adamkhel.

Meanwhile, Taliban sources denied blowing up the school in Darra Adamkhel and said the enemies of Pakistan could be behind such incidents, claiming that they were not against education.
