KOHAT, Oct 7: Militants beheaded a man they said was ‘spying for the government’ and shot dead a man in Darra Adamkhel on Saturday night, residents and officials said.

The body of Gul Faraz was dumped in the Darra Adamkhel bazaar and a note found near it alleged that the man was a ‘government spy’. It warned other ‘spies’ of a similar fate if they did not stop helping the ‘corrupt administration’.

Another body was found on a mountain near Darra Adamkhel town.

It could not be identified, but officials suspect he had been killed by the local Taliban.
