- CTD links terrorists involved in Kurram’s violence to TTP.
- The authorities say that the defendant involved in sectarian violence.
- Ensures that the name of the informants remains confidential.
The Khyber Pakhtunkhwa (CTD) contribution department announced money on Saturday, which ranges from RS3M to 30m, for 14 terrorists involved in the recent violence in the Kurram district.
Kurram has been destroyed by violence for decades, but around 150 people have been killed in a new round of fighting that began in November last year when two separate convoys traveling under the police escort were ambushed, leaving 40 people dead.
In a statement, the CTD said the defendants were involved in the assimilation of more than 200 people, and added that all terrorists were associated with the forbidden Tehreek-i-Taliban Pakistan (TTP).
Meanwhile, the CTD also launched its photos and names, saying that there would be a monetary reward to those citizens who provide credible information about the accused.
“The terrorists are involved in the looting, the fire caused, the siege and killing children and women,” the CTD added.
In addition, he said that the defendants were involved in sectarian violence in the Kurram district of KP.
In a setback of the peace efforts in the restless region, Boshehra commissioner (AC) was injured as a result of the dismissal of unidentified attackers in January.
However, after the efforts of the law agents, peace was restored, and essential supplies also began to reach Kurram, which cut off the rest of the country for months.
As part of the peace efforts, 25 more bunkers were demolished in the upper and lower parts of Kurram last month, which increases the number of trenches destroyed to 80. The process of dismantling tribal bunkers began after the peace agreement.
On the other hand, the coordinator of the District of the Provincial Disaster Management Authority, Shiraz Bacha, said that the distribution of compensation controls was ongoing for the families of the victims of Bagan and passenger vehicles.
The additional attached commissioner (Socorro) Maqsood Khan distributed checks worth RS1 million each to the families of 14 more victims. Until now, RS60 million had been distributed in compensation among the victims of incidents related to terrorism in Kurram, while the collection of data for other affected people was still in progress.
