[Zarvan]

Five officials from the Counter-Terrorism Department (CTD), including a sub-inspector, were martyred while four others were injured after an exchange of fire during a police raid to apprehend wanted criminals in Chilas, the district headquarter for Diamer, officials said on Tuesday.

According to police, the incident took place a few kilometres from Chilas, at Ronai village, during the early hours of Tuesday morning.

Two civilians were also killed during the shootout, they said, adding that the injured and martyred officials had been shifted to a nearby hospital.

Gilgit-Baltistan government spokesman Faizullah Faraq said the raid was carried out after police officials were tipped on the whereabouts of the suspects.

GB caretaker Chief Minister Mir Afzal has sought a report on the incident from IG Dr Mujeebur Rehman and directed that the accused be arrested immediately.

why has diamer district always been an hotbed of extremist elements? is it due to the tribal nature of the populace or their sectarian affiliations?

coming back to the point - a botched raid. apparently a university student killed, family claim innocent.

Thats a big number.

Its seem they already knew that CTD was coming. Any possibility of internal leakage of information?

Yes, that is true. People of Chillas are very Sectarian in nature. They've hosted SSP,LeJ and TTP terrorists

Unfortunately Kohistan other than sectarian violence is also favorite place of other rogue elements due to it's terrain. The nature of people is also harsh just like terrain. When Gilgit became center point of Shia Sunni conflict the Masha Brum service buses were burnt in this area.
I have traveled and stayed in Astor and people told that the Ulama and Zakirs have spread so much sectarian hatred that even Shia and Sunni having relations with each other are divided and avoid to visit each other.
