MANSEHRA: A police official was killed and six other policemen wounded in the attacks on two police stations in northwest Pakistan Saturday, police said.
In first attack a gunfight broke out when two suicide bombers stormed into a police station in Mansehra, police said.
One of the attackers was shot dead and the other fled, station chief Waheed Khan told AFP.
“We have cordoned the area and are searching for the second attacker,” Khan told AFP.
Ali Raza, another police official, told AFP that bomb disposal staff were defusing the explosives strapped to the dead attacker's body.
An AFP photographer at the scene saw the body of the attacker lying in the police station and heard gunshots as police rushed to find the second attacker.
In a separate attack in the neighbouring mountain town of Balakot, a suicide bomber killed SHO Khalil Khan and wounded three policemen, local police official Sabir Ullah told AFP.
