The security forces pounded three houses located in Lower Kurram Agency of a mastermind of Parachinar suicide bombing here on Monday morning.
According to official sources, the security forces, launching an offensive in Lower Kurram area of Auchaat, destroyed three houses of Fazal Saeed Haqqani, Ameer of Tehreek-e-Taliban Pakistan (TTP) Islami group.
During the Jirga held after accused militants Fazal Saeed accepted the responsibility of the Friday’s suicide attack in Parachinar, which claimed at least 43 lives and injured over 60 people, it was decided to launch operation against Fazal Saeed.
The injured are being given medical care in various hospitals of Parachinar and Peshawar where 10 among injured were stated to be in critical condition.
Meanwhile, all deceased have been laid to rest in different parts of Parachinar.
It is pertinent to note here that Parachinar-Peshawar Highway is closed down for four days now over security concerns.
Security officials said that curfew in the area was imposed for indefinite period.
The best way would have been to bring the evidence collected to the court and have him convicted and given an appropriate sentence. I believe there is no provision in the law to go and bulldoze some one's house even if he had committed a heinous act like a suicide bombing.
Due process of law must take its course and prevail. These knee jerk reactions by the state or those who are running the affairs of the state can create mayhem and more reactionary terrorists. Please be careful. Thanks
As the custom of tribes; the first step of punishment has been done. Yet if some one taking responsibility of that kind of genocide, he should be hang; at least.
