KOHAT, Sept 4: The local Taliban, who have literally taken administrative control of Darra Adamkhel in the Frontier Region of Kohat, have claimed responsibility for slaughtering two men, including a brother of a superintendent of police.
Talking to Dawn on Tuesday, a spokesman for the Taliban alleged that the two men used to supply arms to criminals, especially to Amir Said alias Charg, who was killed last month in a militants’ operation in Darra Adamkhel’s Akhurwal area. He warned that anyone who supplied arms to criminals would meet the same fate.
The bodies of Mohammad Zaman Afridi, brother of SP Gul Afzal Afridi, and Badshah Hussain were found in the Darra bazaar on Monday.
The political administration had claimed that the two men had been killed over a coalmine dispute.
The Taliban spokesman said the group would soon burn a huge quantity of drugs.
