Fear and panic have gripped the area since Monday because of the killings.
The residents of the area are also facing trouble with accessing internet, however, no government official could be reached for confirmation due to communication problems.
Deputy Commissioner Shahbaz Tahir told The Express Tribune that security forces are working on a plan to curb violence and the suspension of mobile services is a part of it.
The official did not disclose details of the plan.
Tahir said the authorities are taking action against the trouble makers and that the writ of the government will be restored in the area.

@Sandip: "They are Indian citizens ....." Once they (gilgit baltistan) had revolted against India and acceded to Pakistan. Since then no one ever thought to join back though sometimes they called for constitutional rights in Pakistan.
What sort of news report is this? No indication of what caused the problems in the first place. Also, Pakistani government has to make sure that the people of Pakistan occupied Jammu & Kashmir are well looked after. They are Indian citizens and since they are in Pakistani control, the responsibility for their welfare is Pakistan's - till such time as they are reunited with India.
How reporter has communicated the news then ? :P
