Bannu: (Ghag Report)
In a distressing turn of events, seven police personnel were abducted along with their weapons by unidentified attackers in the remote Ahmadzai subdivision of Bannu.
The assailants reportedly overpowered the officers at the Rocha checkpoint, seizing control of the post and taking the policemen hostage. In addition to abducting the seven personnel—identified as Saleem, Aqal Rehman, Maiwa Jan, Roshan, Abdul Malik, Naimatullah, and Shad Muhammad—the attackers looted all supplies from the checkpoint, including food and other essentials.
