The 26-year-old constable was present at the district court gate in Mardan when a blast ripped through the premises on September 2. He saved several people as he stopped the suicide bomber from entering the premises.
On the occasion, Durrani also visited the residence of Advocate Arshad Khan in Janabad and offered condolence with the bereaved family. Arshad was a provincial leader of Awami National Party and former chairperson of the municipal committee. He succumbed to his injuries a few hours after being caught up in the blast.
