CHITRAL, Oct 26: Of the 20 people killed in the bombing in Swat on Thursday, 13 were from Chitral who worked for the Frontier Constabulary, said some sources.

Police sources, however, confirmed the names of only two — namely, Mohammad Yahya of the Chumurkone village and Noor Mohammad of the Torkhow village.

The names of the other victims could not be ascertained till the filing of this story.
