SHABQADAR: Gunmen shot dead two policemen in the main Shabqadar bazaar Sunday evening. District Police Officer Shafiulllah Khan confirmed the incident and identified the deceased policemen as Shahryar Khan, a head constable at Khwajawas Kor police station, and Muhammad Ayaz Khan of Sro Kali police station. They were performing duty on the main Peshawar Road when gunmen riding on a motorcycle opened fire on them around 5pm, killing them on the spot. The attackers managed to flee unchallenged and unidentified. The bodies were shifted to the Tehsil Headquarters Hospital for autopsy.  In November last year, a special branch official, Rahat Gul, was killed in the bazaar by armed men.

Gul Muhammad | 10 years ago | Reply KPK has become the wild west. Every crime is labled on Taliban. The fact is that in every city and town various mafias are active and these mafias are working under the patronage of monisters.
