According to the ISPR media update, a known militant commander identified as Ghaniur Rehman has been arrested by the troops during the search and cordon operation. He was allegedly involved in killing police officials. A local elder said there were some 40-50 militants in Bahrain but they fled the town on May 27-evening when they came to know about the arrival of the SFs. “They (Taliban) are avoiding fighting with the security forces now and are running,” he said and added the militants had shifted to Kalam. The elder said the group of Taliban militants in Kalam was commanded by one Khushmir, a resident of Gilgit. He said five militants were killed in a clash in Bahrain. The ISPR said an explosive-laden vehicle was destroyed and two militants were killed at Satal, four kilometers short of Bahrain town. Though there were conflicting reports about casualties in the Satal incident, a man from Kalam claimed that a Taliban commander, identified as Wazifa, had been killed in the clash along with seven other militants. He claimed a ‘deputy commander’ of the militants in the area, Hameedi, confirmed the death of Wazifa. Some residents of Kanju, who managed to reach the provincial capital Peshawar on May 28, said Mingora, Kanju and Kabal towns were almost cleared as the Taliban had vacated these areas. “They have moved towards mountains,” they said. Two militants, according to the ISPR, were killed during an exchange of fire between the Taliban and SFs in Malam Jabba. The SFs also continued action in Peuchar village and carried out cordon and search operations there. The troops also ambushed a group of 15-20 militants at Manodherai and killed three of them while four others were arrested. One soldier sustained injuries in the incident. Further, a convoy of eight Army trucks carrying relief and food destined for Barikot and Mingora was ambushed at Landakay near Barikot.

49 persons, including a woman and seven children, were killed and 90 others were injured when a suicide attacker detonated his explosives-laden car at the crowded Soekarno Chowk in Khyber Bazaar in Peshawar, capital of NWFP, on October 9, The News reported. A Police official said that people were busy in routine activities when a suicide bomber detonated the explosives laden in his car. Many of those killed and injured were passengers of a mini-bus that was passing through the area at the time of the blast. Seven children, many of them schoolboys, and a woman, were among those killed. The blast destroyed around 30 vehicles and partially damaged over 60 shops in the nearby markets. Windowpanes of hundreds of shops and offices were also reportedly destroyed. Among those killed or injured were patients and their attendants going or coming out of the nearby Lady Reading Hospital, the biggest public sector hospital in the NWFP. An official of the bomb disposal unit (BDU) estimated that around 50 kg of high-intensity explosives had been loaded in the car, being driven by the suicide bomber, while another official said the explosives were around 100 kg. “As the explosives were loaded in the doors and side cavities, it caused more damage to the nearby buildings rather than creating a huge crater in the ground,” a BDU official said. There were reports that the bomber attempted to reach the NWFP Assembly building through Sher Shah Suri Road but was not allowed by the Policemen near the Peshawar Central Prison. The Inspector General of Police (IGP) Malik Naveed termed the attack a reaction to the ongoing military operations in Swat and parts of the FATA. The Deputy Medical Superintendent at Lady Reading Hospital, Sahib Gul, said the blast killed 50 people and wounded 120 others, 22 of them critically. Dr Gul said the death toll could increase, adding that most of the dead were beyond recognition. There was no immediate claim of responsibility for the bombing.
