[Arch Enemy]

PESHAWAR: A death squad in burqa sent by militants to kill a union council Nazim in nearby Bazidkhel village on Sunday morning failed in its mission, losing three of its members in the encounter.

‘I don’t know exactly how many attackers came, but they came in five vehicles. When we fell three of them, the rest fled,’ [Nazim] said. His bodyguards recovered three Kalashnikovs, three pistols and hand grenades from the attackers.

‘We have provided lists and pointed out the number and places of Lashkar-i-Islam activists in Peshawar to the authorities concerned in the past, but no action has been taken against them so far,’ he said, adding that Badbher, Sarband, Bazid Khel, Surizai, Tarnab, Ormar and Kachori were the main localities where LI had hundreds of activists armed with sophisticated weapons.

‘Action against them is a must,’ stressed the nazim.

"Militants have exploded three bombs near my house, killing innocent people, and ave opened fire on me several times but have failed so far," Khan told Dawn. "These attacks will not weaken my resolve against militants."

Unsung Heroes are getting assassinated day and night, while D.C. is "thinking about it".
