MINGORA:
The security forces clamped a curfew in Mingora on Saturday at midnight
and launched a search operation in the morning. The security forces and
police arrested 100 persons during the search operation after reports of
the presence of suspected persons in the area.
The sources said the security forces received information about the reported presence of suspected persons in Tahirabad, Banr, Yakh Kohay, Marghazar Town, Bathai, Rahmanabad and other areas in Mingora.
The security forces and police launched the search operation in the area and arrested 100 persons who were shifted to an undisclosed location for interrogation.
The sources said that the local people hoped that the curfew would soon be lifted to enable the residents to continue their routine life.INP adds: Several suspects, including a few high profile miscreants, were arrested during a door-to-door search operation by the police in the posh Hayatabad area in Peshawar.
The sources said that the police started a door-to-door search operation in the early hours today (Sunday) by cordoning off Phases 5, 6 and 7 of the Hayatabad area on the information that some suspected persons from among the North Waziristan evacuees had taken refuge in these areas.
A strong contingent of the police, including 700 female police, were deployed in checking the identity cards and other particulars of the residents in the area to flush out the suspected persons. The police by this time had made some arrests that included a few high profile targets.
Meanwhile, in a bid to preempt any likely reaction in South Punjab of operation Zarb-e-Azb, security in the entire area has been put on high alert, while several contingents of the Pakistan Army have been sent for deployment in Dera Ghazi Khan and Multan.
Inter Services Public Relations (ISPR) said that in the backdrop of terror incidents in reaction to Zarb-e-Azb feared in southern Punjab, security had been put on high alert, while troops equipped with modern weapons and passion to face every challenge had been sent to DG Khan and Multan for immediate deployment to thwart any likely terrorist bid.
The contingents of troops constituting the Quick Reaction Force and Rapid Reaction Force are fully capable of meeting any emergency situation.According to reports, a joint operation and coordination centre headed by Major General Hasnat Amir has been set up, where the officers of the police, civil administration and sensitive organisations along with the army would be available for security in Multan, DG Khan and Sahiwal.
