Khyber Pakhtunkhwa police on Saturday recovered beheaded bodies of two police constables from Elum Mountain in Buner district, DawnNews reported.

The constables, identified as Faisal Wahid and Tariq, had reportedly gone missing two days ago when they were on a patrolling duty in the area. There had been no news about them for the past two days, until today, when their bodies were recovered by the police.

Following the recovery of mutilated corpses, the law enforcement agencies cordoned off the area and started investigations into the incident.
