Three children and a woman were found dead near an Afghan refugee camp in Dargai tehsil, Malakand, said a levies official on Sunday.
According to Dargai Levies Incharge Dost Muhammad, they were informed about bodies found near the camp at around 10:15pm on Saturday.
After reaching the site, officials shifted the deceased to Dargai Civil Hospital. According to Muhammad, a 30-year-old woman, a four-year-old girl, and two boys of three and seven years of age had been gunned down.
The official said four belong to one family and possibility of honour killing cannot be ruled out. “It is early to assertively say anything about the incident until we identify the bodies,” stated Muhammad.
