PESHAWAR: At least six Frontier Constabulary (FC) personnel were killed and seven other, including a policeman and three khasadar, were injured in a militant attack on a check post of Urmar Police on the border of Frontier Region (FR) Peshawar last night.

The attack began around midnight and continued for three and a half hour. The militants surrounded the check post and used heavy weapons during the assault.

A large number of police and Frontier Constabulary personnel were dispatched to the area as reinforcement, however the militants had fled by then.

The attackers had occupied the check post and escaped after setting it on fire. Six bodies of the FC men were found inside the post, two of which were completely burnt.

Police feared that the rest of the police and FC men had been taken away but later seven of them were found injured while others were also found in nearby bushes unhurt. They were able to get out of the post before the militants overran it.

“They were short of arms and ammunition as it was the first attack of its kind on a check post in the area,” said a police official on the condition of anonymity, adding that the heads of the two dead bodies were also missing.

He said that a policeman, three Khasadar and three FC men were among the injured who were shifted to the Lady Reading Hospital (LRH).

Prospects of that doesn't look bright as they have secret links with them to an extent that their leaders rationalises those attacks, KPK has elected JUI man as their education minister , timber mafia as their forest and resources minister .Pakistanies you have been fooled yet again by this new slogan of naya Pakistan by new terrorist sympathizers .

6 soldiers dead and not a single militant killed. Terrorists have done so much damage to Pakistan but still no proper action is being taken against them. The terroristic Taliban should be utterly defeated. Terrorists are enemies of Pakistan who have caused a great deal of damage to Pakistan but still no one realizes or cares about the threat they pose.

What will it take for us to realize these animals are a major threat to Pakistan. If the security forces stopped running after innocents and instead hunted down these major terrorists like Hakimullah Mehsud, Ludhianvi, Malik Ishaq, Lahori and others then Pakistan would be dominating the word.

Instead we don't have the balls to say no to USA or the west nor do we have the willpower to attack the militants and finish them once and for all.

Thank you, our idiot politicians for getting us in a war that is causing massive damage to Pakistan and has snuffed out 40,000+ lives. Yet no action against the terrorists who caused this.
