Gilgit terrorist attack

Author: Daily Times

Sir: According to latest reports, a group of five terrorists attacked a police checkpost in the Kargah area. As a result three policemen embraced martyrdom; however in retaliatory firing two terrorists were also killed, while the rest fled the scene.

Police says that these are the same terrorists that were involved in the recent burning and bombing of almost 14 schools in Diamer. The horrifying fact is that not only special army forces are being targeted, but everyday police and government servants have become targets too. Hence we request the Prime Minister to be of Pakistan, Mr Imran Khan to work on countering terrorism and protecting our citizens from these terrorist attacks.
