The Pakistani police foiled a terrorist attack on a police station at Bajaur’s Lowi Mamund tehsil in Pakistan on Saturday, media reports said.
“Some terrorists launched a rocket attack on the Lowi Mamund police station in the Laghari area on Saturday morning, but the attack was effectively foiled by the police personnel, who responded swiftly,” said a statement issued from the district police officer’s office as quoted by Dawn News.
No death has been reported so far.
“All the personnel deputed at the police station not only remained safe but they also thwarted the nefarious designs of terrorists with their courage and bravery,” the statement added.
Law enforcement personnel thwarted a terror bid in Inayat Kallay Bazaar by defusing the bomb.
Residents and police officials told Dawn that an improvised explosive device placed by unknown miscreants in the main bazaar created fear and dread among traders and customers.
