Security personnel of the Shah Saleem police station, which lies near the border of Bannu district, arrested a man and took him into custody following which around 15 to 20 assailants attacked the police station.
Crossfire between police and the assailants ensued and a heavy contingent of police was deployed to the area.
Earlier, gun and rocket launcher-toting militants conducted a brazen attack on a police check post late Sunday night on the outskirts of Peshawar, sparking firefights that left six policemen, including a senior officer, dead and 15 others injured.

The drones are killing terrorist leaders who are using women and children as human shields....nothing else is stopping these animals...do you think if the drones stopped the Taliban would stop killing people? Wake up to the enemies of Pakistan who are destroying your country and stop supporting these barbarians...

Now be quiet. Forward that to Imran Khan.
Karak is a very peaceful place. I wonder about the details. To me, it does not look like militants' work.
@Afzaal Khan: "@Jat
And how are drones been doing protecting us from terror attacks? Please tell me why terrorist attacks has actually gone up post drones if they such good things. Since you love them so much I wish you a drone sure you would like it"
Wish I could help you fulfill your wish. But there is a problem; I live in a country which does not allow foreign military agents, foreign contracted mercenaries, foreign military supplies and foreign drones on its territory. My country will shoot down the drones which dare enter its borders, my country will break the hands that dare try to harm its citizens, my country will gouge out the eyes of those who dare look at its citizens with evil intent.
So me getting a drone is as probable as a Pakistani landing on moon... so sorry.
