PESHAWAR: Security forces on Saturday gunned down three terrorists in an exchange of fire.
According to a police official, an exchange of fire took place between the terrorists and security forces on Golachi Road, in which three were gunned down.
Security forces had raided the area in search of the suspected terrorists after receiving a tip regarding the presence of nefarious terrorists in the area. Security forces claimed that these terrorists were involved in conducting attacks in Pakistan and were also linked to foreign terrorist organisations. The Pakistan Army is on the hunt for terrorists after a spate of terrorist attacks killed more than 100 people across Pakistan. Afghanistan-based terrorist outfit Jamaatul Ahrar had claimed responsibility for the attacks. According to media reports, the Pakistan Army destroyed hideouts of the JuA in Afghanistan on Friday night.
Meanwhile, Pak-Afghan border remained closed for second consecutive day.
