Insurgents shot dead four more Policemen and threatened to execute other hostages unless the Government withdraws troops and releases detainees in Balochistan, Police said on August 9, The News reported. “The bodies of four more policemen were found early on Sunday. They had been shot dead overnight,” senior Police official Kalim Ullah told reporters. The insurgents had set August 9 as a deadline for meeting their demands. The Baloch Republican Army (BRA) claimed on August 9 that it had killed four more kidnapped Policemen after the Government failed to meet its demands and thrown their bodies in lands. “We have killed four more policemen and released seven labourers on humanitarian grounds,” said spokesman Sarbaz Baloch, in a telephone call to reporters in the provincial capital Quetta. “In a day or two, we will decide about the fate of other policemen, if our demands are not accepted by the government,” he added. The Policemen and the labourers were taken hostages late in July 2009 in the Naseerabad District, Police officials said. Four policemen were killed in July, while another six Policemen and four labourers were still being held, the Police officials said. “If the government does not withdraw the FC (Frontier Corps) from Quetta and release our men, we will kill the rest of the hostages in a couple of days,” Sarbaz Baloch said.

According to Daily Times, the bodies of nine Policemen taken hostage in July 2009 by insurgents were discovered in Balochistan on August 17. "We have recovered nine bodies of dead policemen. They were kidnapped by the Balochistan Republican Army," said senior Police officer Kaleem Ullah. The corpses were found in Naseerabad, some 390 kilometers southeast of provincial capital Quetta, and the Police officers were thought to have been killed about four days ago, Kaleem added. The insurgents had taken 24 local Police officials and labourers hostage in late July. Three Policemen escaped, and the bodies of 12 others have already been found. Sarbaz Baloch, a spokesman for the Balochistan Republican Army, had earlier in August claimed responsibility for the kidnappings and deaths in a telephone call to reporters in Quetta.

A suicide bomber blew himself up after he was besieged by the Security Force (SF) personnel in Kohat on August 21, The News reported. Official sources said the Police were informed that a 15-year-old suicide bomber would attack a mosque or imambargah anytime in the city. The SF personnel spotted the bomber in a bazaar with two hand-grenades in his hand and a firearm on his shoulder, the sources said. Seeing the Police party, the bomber ran away and forced his entry into the house of Inayatullah Jan in BB Pakdaman Street and took his family members hostage. Later, the women and other members of the family, except one Safdar Hashmi, were allowed to go out of the house. Eyewitnesses said the only hostage, Safdar Hashmi, managed to escape from the house and the Police party headed by the Deputy Inspector General of Police Abdullah Khan fired tear-gas shells and bullets at the house. The bomber later blew himself up when he couldn’t escape. The house also suffered damage in the explosion. Later, Safdar Hashmi, while talking to the media, said the bomber was 15-year-old and hailed from Punjab. He said that four other suicide bombers had also entered Kohat District to carry out blasts, adding that the bomber revealed they had links with Al Qaeda.

Six Army personnel, including a brigadier and a lieutenant colonel, were killed and five others seriously injured when militants clad in Army uniform attacked the General Headquarters (GHQ) of the Army in Rawalpindi at around 11:30am (PST) on October 10, Inter-Services Public Relations (ISPR) Director General Athar Abbas told Daily Times. He said that the highly trained militants armed with sophisticated weapons aboard a Suzuki van entered the office of the Security staff outside the premises of the General Headquarters and took 10 to 15 officials hostage. They opened fire and hurled hand grenades when they were stopped for checking at the first check post. He said that five of the 6 to 7 militants who attacked the headquarters were also killed in retaliatory fire of the Security Forces (SFs). “Five terrorists, one of whom was a suicide bomber, were killed in the ensuing gunbattle. Three to four accomplices of the terrorists, however, managed to cross over the grassy grounds unnoticed during the shootout,” Gen Abbas said. The SFs have cordoned off the entire area and a siege was continuing to arrest the terrorists alive. The slained brigadier and lieutenant colonel were identified as Anwaar and Waseem, respectively.
